  • Patent number: 9682123
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for treating metabolic disease in a subject and methods for increasing the expression of ILDR2 in a subject. The invention further provides a method for identifying an agent which modulates expression of an Ildr2 RNA comprising contacting a cell with an agent; determining expression of the Ildr2 RNA in the presence and the absence of the agent; and comparing expression of the Ildr2 RNA in the presence and the absence of the agent, wherein a change in the expression of the Ildr2 RNA in the presence of the agent is indicative of an agent which modulates the level of expression of the RNA.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 22, 2014
    Date of Patent: June 20, 2017
    Assignee: THE TRUSTEES OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK

  • Publication number: 20130160150
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for reducing diabetes susceptibility in a subject and methods for increasing the expression of LL or CLORF32 in a subject. The invention further provides a method for identifying an agent which modulates expression of an Ll RNA or Clorf32 RNA comprising contacting a cell with an agent; determining expression of the Ll RNA or Clorf32 RNA in the presence and the absence of the agent; and comparing expression of the Ll RNA or Clorf32 RNA in the presence and the absence of the agent, wherein a change in the expression of the Ll RNA or Clorf32 RNA in the presence of the agent is indicative of an agent which modulates the level of expression of the RNA.
