Patents by Inventor Ulrich Hengst

Ulrich Hengst has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • METHODS FOR EXPRESSING PROTEINS IN AXONS
    Publication number: 20210246180
    Abstract: The invention relates to expressing proteins in the axons of mammalian neurons. The invention provides nucleic acids that can be used to express a selected polypeptide in neuronal axons, viruses that can be used deliver nucleic acids of the invention into neuronal axons, as well as methods for doing so. Thus, the invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising viruses of the invention, as well as their use in methods of treating injured axons or conditions associated with aberrant axon growth or function.
    Type: Application
