  • Publication number: 20250144034
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for the preparation and application of modified extracellular vesicles specifically targeted to the kidneys. These modified extracellular vesicles are derived from fibroblastic reticular cells in the mesentery tissue and express anti-inflammatory proteins after being modified with anchor peptides. By combining the extracellular vesicles secreted from fibroblastic reticular cells in the mesentery tissue with anchor peptides, the present invention ensures the effective targeting of the exosomes to the kidneys. Additionally, through genetic engineering of fibroblastic reticular cells, the exosomes secreted by these cells can carry the target molecule, anti-inflammatory protein CD5L, achieving precise targeted therapy for the kidneys. This innovative treatment strategy holds promising potential for the treatment of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury, bringing positive impacts to patients' health.

  • Patent number: 10895537
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for calibrating a laser power are described. A system may include a sample to be tested and a control sample that comprises a control analyte. A user may indicate a known concentration of the control analyte to the system (e.g., by entering a concentration value into a user interface or other process). The system may perform multiple runs at different laser powers and compare the measurements of each run against expected values for the control analyte at the known concentration. From that comparison, a calibrated laser power may be computed and that computed power level can be used by the system for the running of tests on an unknown sample.

  • Patent number: 10058256
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present inventive concept provide a system that uses two wavelengths of differential transmittance through a sample to apply laser speckle or laser Doppler imaging. A first of the two wavelengths is within the visible range that has zero or very shallow penetration. This wavelength captures the anatomical structure of tissue/organ surface and serves as a position marker of the sample but not the subsurface movement of blood flow and perfusion. A second wavelength is in the near Infra-Red (NIR) range, which has much deeper penetration. This wavelength reveals the underlying blood flow physiology and correlates both to the motion of the sample and also the movement of blood flow and perfusion. Thus, true motion of blood flow and perfusion can be derived from the NIR imaging measurement without being affected by the motion artifact of the target.

  • Patent number: 6774939
    Abstract: The inability to attach more than one audio file to a single image file is an example of a problem encountered in image recording devices that include an audio recording function whereby audio information can be recorded and played back along with previously captured image files. A major disadvantage of prior image capturing systems is that only one audio file could be attached to a single image file. The present invention discloses an audio-attached image recording and playback device that allows one or more audio files to be associated with a single image file using an audio file identifier for each audio file. The audio file identifier includes an audio file attachment position that has coordinate information about a specific portion of the image that is displayed on a monitor. The user defines the specific portion by using a cursor to select the specific portion. Audio information is recorded and is associated with that position on the image.
