Fatty Acid Derivatives and Their Use for the Treatment and Prevention of Autoimmune, Inflammatory, and Pain Disorders
Abstract: The discovery and selection of suitable compounds for the treatment and prevention of autoimmune, inflammatory, and pain disorders is a significant challenge. Researchers at National Institute of Aging (NIA) mitigated this issue. They discovered and synthesized numerous novel fatty acid derivatives (novel small molecules) that may ameliorate...

Methods for Amelioration and Treatment of Pathogen-associated Inflammatory Response
This CDC invention provides methods for preventing or treating inflammatory response-linked, infection induced pathologies, which are mediated by endogenous substance P. Substance P is a naturally-occurring and major pro-inflammatory neuromediator or neuromodulator, and elevated levels of substance P have been implicated in numerous inflammation-associated...

Wearable Device for Continuous Monitoring and Intelligent Intervening of Targeted Body Region
Traditional treatment for arthritis and other forms of localized inflammation requires the use of an ice pack. For those who suffer from arthritis, accessibility to a cold pack is limited by the need for constant refrigeration. Moreover, physicians do not have a method to continually monitor localized patient inflammation, and this hampers the treatment...

Discovery of Novel Amphipathic Ligands for the Dynorphin Binding Site on the Bradykinin Receptor
This invention is a dynorphin analog designed to interact with a receptor that is partly responsible for pain sensations. Dynorphin analog targets the bradykinin receptors instead of the f NMDA receptors. The ligands are novel in the deletion of an arginine residue in position 7 which has been recognized as an essential residue for opioid and non-opioid...
