TGFβ-treatment of organoid cultures primes for regenerative therapy of damaged epithelia
A) GI epithelial organoids treated with TGFβ (right panel) acquire a spherical morphology and regenerative identity compared to vehicle-treated organoids (left panel). B-D) Organoids treated with TGFβ engraft more efficiently into the colon of mice exhibiting ulcerative colitis-like disease based on fluorescent micrographs (B), size per colonized...

Recombinant Stabilized Prefusion Protein of Respiratory Syncytial Virus for Use as a Subunit Vaccine
The invention, a stabilized recombinant prefusion F protein (pre F), is a candidate subunit vaccine for Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). Pre-F is stabilized in the prefusion conformation and displays epitopes not present in postfusion F protein. Several potent RSV neutralizing antibodies bind pre F, but not postfusion F. Therefore, immunization...

Novel Multi-Omics Aging Clock
­A multi-omics clock analyzes multiple layers of omics data with machine learning to predict remaining lifespan of mammals, particularly for animal model studies. Large omics data sets may be used from combinations of genomics, proteomics, lipids, etc. available from blood or other simple sample collection. This tool can robustly capture changes...
