Method of Treating Acute Lung Injury Using Sphingosine 1 Phosphate Analogs Or Sphingosine 1 Phosphate Receptor Agonists
This invention describes a method to treat and reduce the risk for acute lung injury (ALI) associated with radiation, infection, trauma, and other environmental-related lung injury. The method described involves the administration of analogs or derivatives of a Sphingosine 1 Phosphate (S1P) receptor agonists that have similar properties of S1P that...

Natural Treatment for Ventilation Induced Lung Injury
This invention is the use of bixin, a NRF2 inducer, to reduce lung damage caused by mechanical ventilation. Bixin was found to suppress inflammatory mediators, reduce alveolar capillary leakage, and protect against DNA oxidative damage. Background: Mechanical ventilation is used to assist patients who have difficulty breathing spontaneously in conditions...

Next Generation MRI Contrast Imaging Agent
WSU has developed a new class of contrast agents that are effective at ultra-high field strengths (>3 tesla) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) where current clinical agents severely decline in effectiveness. Our new agents are based on the metal Eu(II) which is novel compared to current agents that are based on Gd(III). The difference between the...
