Griffithsin-Based Anti-viral Therapeutics with Improved Stability and Solubility
Abstract: Griffithsin is a potent anti-viral protein with activity against HIV, HCV, Sars, HSV 1 & 2 and other viruses.  It is active against HIV and HCV at picomolar concentrations.  Griffithsin is moving into clinical trials as an anti-HIV microbicide. Based on the structure of griffithsin and the necessities of pharmaceutical product development...

Stopping Neurogenesis in Transgenic Mice and Rat Models that Express the HSV-thymidine kinase Gene in Neuronal Precursor Cells
This invention relates to novel mouse and rat models that permit the temporal death of neuronal precursor cells at any time point. Other existing methods of decreasing neurogenesis are relatively non-specific (e.g., injecting glucocorticoids) or require expensive equipment (e.g., focal x-irradiation) These mice and rats are being used to inhibit adult...

Use of Mono-Amine Oxidase Inhibitors to Prevent Herpes Virus Infections and Reactivation from Latency
Available for licensing are methods of using Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) to prevent alpha-herpesvirus lytic infections, such as those caused by Herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 or HSV-2) and Varicella zoster virus (VZV), and to possibly prevent the periodic reactivation of these viruses from latency. MAOIs have been historically used to treat depression,...

Improved Large Scale Production of Adeno-Associated Viruses
Enables a More Efficient and More Potent Production of AAV VectorsThis production of highly concentrated and potent Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vectors has significant advantage over available protocol and allows for large-scale manufacturing of the virus. More than 6 percent of all gene therapy clinical trials worldwide use AAV vectors due to their...
