  • Publication number: 20240131161
    Abstract: Biochemical scaffolds for regulating mammalian cell function. The biochemical scaffolds include a base liquid medium, a bioenergetic platform and a vibrational platform. The bioenergetic platform includes at least one Krebs cycle modulator and/or neurotransmitter modulator. The vibrational platform includes at least one energy signature component, e.g., an herb. The biochemical scaffold is subjected to harmonic oscillation for a defined, predetermined period of time, wherein the energy signature of the energy signature component is imparted to, captured, replicated, and retained by the liquid medium, and, when the biochemical scaffolds are delivered to and, thus, in communication with biological tissue, the biochemical scaffolds induce specific biochemical activities via the resonant transfer of the retained energy signature to the biological tissue and, hence, endogenous cells thereof.

  • Publication number: 20240131173
    Abstract: Transcription factors (TFs) represent a major class of therapeutic targets for the treatment of human diseases including cancer. Although the biological function and even crystal structure of many TFs have been clearly elucidated, there is still no viable approach to target the majority of TFs, thus rendering them undruggable for decades. PROTACs (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) have emerged as a powerful tool for the pharmaceutical development since the effect of PROTACs largely relies on engineered protein-protein interaction to aid the degradation of targets by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). The present disclosure provides a DNA-PROTAC platform for targeted degraders of individual TFs of interest. These DNA based Transcription Factor targetting PROTACS (or “TF-PROTACS”) may provide specificity to TF degradation based on the conserved DNA-binding motifs of respective TFs.

    Abstract: A nuclide-labeled inhibitory peptide, and a preparation method therefor and use thereof are provided. The nuclide-labeled inhibitory peptide is prepared by labeling ASF1a peptide with 68Ga/177Lu by DOTA, and an amino acid sequence of the ASF1a peptide is YGRKKRRQRRRCASTEEKWARLARRIAGAGGVTLDGFGGCA (as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1). The 68Ga labeled ASF1a inhibitory peptide of the present invention displays the expression level of ASF1a of a tumor through PET/CT imaging, has good imaging sensitivity, can specifically screen high-expression and low-expression individuals, and achieves noninvasive prediction of the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy. The 177Lu-labeled ASF1a inhibitory peptide provides a novel and effective therapeutic strategy for a tumor that highly expresses ASF1a and is not effective for immunotherapy.

  • Publication number: 20240131210
    Abstract: A method of sterilizing an Intracervical Insemination (ICI) fertility kit, for use in performing self-insemination. Each sterile kit comprises: one to three sets of individually wrapped sterile, disposable, syringes and optionally semen collection jars; printed instructions; and a QR code. The collection jar comprises a snap-on lid, and an inner surface with seamless edges to prevent semen residue. The syringes and optionally the jars are sealed in plastic wraps permeable to air and gas, and impermeable to pathogens; and are sterilized via gamma radiation or ethylene oxide. Fresh or frozen, unwashed or washed, semen is deposited into the jar, pulled into the syringe, and administered cervically during a user's maximum monthly level of luteinizing hormone. The syringe distal end is designed to push all semen out of the syringe then plug the end closed, while preventing semen residue from collecting within the syringe. Large circular syringe handles facilitate stable handling.
