Monoclonal Antibody Fragments for Targeting Therapeutics to Growth Plate Cartilage
Abstract: A child's growth is dependent on the proper functioning of the growth plate, a specialized cartilage structure located at the ends of long bones and within the vertebrae. The primary function of the growth plate is to generate new cartilage, which is then converted into bone tissue and results in the lengthening of bones. Failure of the growth...

Ex-vivo Production of Regulatory B-Cells for Use in Auto-immune Diseases
Abstract: Regulatory B-cells (Breg) play an important role in reducing autoimmunity and reduced levels of these cells are implicated in etiology of several auto-inflammatory diseases. Despite their impact in many diseases, their physiological inducers are unknown.  Given that Bregs are a very rare B-cell, identifying factors that promote their development...

Occupational Health: Wearable Kneel-Sit Support Device for Manual Labor and Heavy Industry Applications
This CDC-developed technology describes a novel ergonomic device that supports a portion of the worker's weight while kneeling, relieving the knee pressure and pain common to many manual labor occupations. Unfortunately, many of the devices that have been used in the past to relieve pressure on the knees are bulky, heavy, and of questionable durability. This...

Osteoanabolism by 14-3-3zeta
Project ID: D2021-48 Background Bone loss is one of the common symptoms associated with normal aging and pathologies. An increased bone mass loss and mineral density are the primary reason for osteoporosis, arthritis, fractures, etc. Together it affects millions of individuals in the US alone. While several drugs targeting the prevention of bone...

Therapeutic and Prophylactic for Arthritis
Project ID: D2019-15Background Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes swelling of the joints. Treatments are limited to anti-inflammatories, DMARDs, corticosteroids or biologics. Genetic research has identified several genetic factors that determine susceptibility to developing RA. However, there are no prophylactics or therapeutics...
