  • CANCER BIOMARKERS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20230204591
    Abstract: The present invention provides detection methods for detecting a pre-cancerous epithelial cell signature. The present invention further provides reagents for use in the detection methods. A subject detection method is useful in various imaging, diagnostic, prognostic, and patient monitoring methods, which are also provided.

  • Somatic cells with innate potential for pluripotency
    Patent number: 9850466
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are drawn to compositions of somatic cells with innate potential for pluripotency (SCIPP). SCIPP have the capacity to differentiate into functional derivatives of each of the major germ layers (i.e., ectodermal, endodermal and mesodermal). Also provided are methods and kits for identifying and isolating the somatic cells from a subject as well as for employing SCIPP for research or therapeutic purposes.
    Type: Grant
