41 results about "Oxidized ldl" patented technology

Oxidized LDL. Plasma levels of Ox-LDL are a sensitive biomarker of atherosclerosis. Elevated Ox-LDL is associated with accelerated atherogenesis, CAD, acute myocardial infarction, and stable and unstable angina.

Methods and reagents for non-invasive imaging of atherosclerotic plaque

The invention provides reagents and methods for their use in in vivo diagnosis of atherosclerosis. In particular, the invention provides monoclonal antibodies which bind oxidation specific epitopes in atherosclerotic plaque lesions, such as those which occur in oxidized LDL, in vivo with high binding specificity; i.e., at about 10 to 20 times the rate of binding of the antibodies to adjacent normal arterial tissue. When detectably labeled and administered according to the invention, the antibodies are clearly imaged when bound to atherosclerotic plaque using known imaging techniques and devices, such as a gamma camera. In addition, the invention provides a method for substantially reducing interference from background signal in the blood pool into which such agents are introduced for detection and quantification of atherosclerotic plaque burden in the cardiovascular tissue of a host.

Portable, Rapid, and Inexpensive Diagnostic Tests for Cardiac Disease Risk

Cardiac disease is the world's leading cause of death. Cardiac Disease's pathogenesis is largely attributed to cholesterol, predominantly carried by low-density lipoproteins (LDL). However, recent research has found that oxidized-LDL is significantly more potent in the initiation and development of atherosclerosis. Tests for both cholesterol and ox-LDL tests are lab-based and expensive. With every third American at risk for Cardiac Disease, this invention discloses an on-site, ultra-low cost, rapid diagnostic test. The diagnostic test disclosed will enable a holistic assessment of Cardiac Disease risk. Furthermore, portability and ultra low-cost of the test put vital health data in the hands of patients and doctors. Additionally, the inkjet printing system disclosed can be used to mass produce the test strips on demand.
