  • Patent number: 10758520
    Abstract: Nanoparticle based MKT formulation. MKT is encapsulated by poly(ethylene glycol)ylated (PEGylated) poly-(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) to form nanoparticles (NPs). To induce trans-BBB permeability, glutathione (GSH) is coated on the resulting NPs. Newly generated MKT-NPs showed BBB permeability and tau reduction in experimental models. Specifically, brain-targeting MKT NPs were developed with a glutathione coating, characterized, and shown to permeate BBB permeation insert models as a therapeutic for Alzheimer's disease and related tauopathies.

  • Patent number: 10758564
    Abstract: A method for synthesizing high purity montmorillonite is disclosed. According to this synthesis method, bentonite is dissolved in aqua regia to produce a solution and then sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is added to the solution to produce a mixed solution.

  • Patent number: 10758567
    Abstract: The disclosure concerns a method for cancer treatment by in vivo priming and activation of natural killer cells for achieving tumor cell lysis. The method includes introducing into a patient a priming tumor cell preparation (PTCP) derived from a first tumor cell line, which is irradiated to inactivate the first tumor cells or a membrane preparation thereof, the first tumor cells having known priming ligands on the membrane surface thereof. The patient's rest NK cells are contacted by the PTCP in vivo, resulting in primed NK cells, which are characterized by upregulation of CD69, shedding of CD16, or a combination of CD69+ and CD16?. These primed NK cells then contact second tumor cells, the cancer, and are configured to lyse and kill the second tumor cells.
