Abstract: Methods and devices for concentrating target cells using dielectrophoresis (DEP) are disclosed. The method allows relatively high throughput of sample through a microfluidic device in order to allow rapid capture of target cells even when they are present in low concentrations within the sample. The method utilizes multiple chambers through which samples will flow, the chambers arranged such that the first capture area has a larger area and faster flow rate than a second chamber, the second chamber being positioned downstream of the first capture area and being smaller with a slower flow rate to further concentrate the material captured in the first capture area.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of formulae I and H, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or esters thereof. Further aspects of the invention relate to pharmaceutical compositions and therapeutic uses of said compounds in the treatment of diseases of uncontrolled cell growth, proliferation and/or survival, inappropriate cellular immune responses, inappropriate cellular inflammatory responses, or neurodegenerative disorders, preferably tauopathies, even more preferably.
