A3 Adenosine Receptor Positive Allosteric Modulators

Selective A3AR agonists are sought as potential agents for treating inflammatory diseases, chronic pain, cancer and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NIDDK investigators have invented new chemical composition as positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the A3AR. These chemical compounds contain sterically constrained, bridged modifications and...

Engineering Mechanisms to Connect One Muscle to Multiple Tendons in Surgery

Technology Description This technology is a new tendon-transfer surgical procedure that uses an implanted passive engineering mechanism for attaching multiple tendons to a single donor muscle. This improves hand function in physical interaction tasks such as grasping over the conventional method of directly suturing multiple tendons to a single muscle.Features...
