8 results about "Tissue selectivity" patented technology

Tissue selectivity is a topic in distribution (pharmacology) and a property of some drugs. It refers to when a drug occurs in disproportionate concentrations and/or has disproportionate effects in specific tissues relative to other tissues. An example of such drugs are selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM) like tamoxifen, which show estrogenic effects in some tissues and antiestrogenic effects in other tissues. Another example is peripherally-selective drugs, which do not cross the blood-brain-barrier into the central nervous system and hence are tissue-selective for the periphery.

Allosteric Conditional Guide RNAs for Cell-Selective Regulation of CRISPR / Cas

PendingUS20250346889A1HydrolasesNucleic acid vectorDiseaseCell selectivity
Programmable guide RNAs (gRNAs) play a central role in the CRISPR revolution sweeping biology and medicine by directing the function of a Cas protein effector to a target gene of choice. To achieve programmable control over regulatory scope, the activity of a conditional guide RNA (cgRNA) depends on the presence or absence of an RNA trigger, allowing for cell-selective regulation of CRISPR / Cas function. Unlike a standard gRNA, a cgRNA is programmable at multiple levels, with the target-binding sequence controlling the target of Cas activity (edit, silence, induce, or bind a gene of choice) and the triggerbinding sequence controlling the scope of Cas activity. cgRNA mechanisms that are allosteric allow for independent design of the target and trigger sequences, providing the flexibility to select the regulatory target and scope independently. Disclosed herein are allosteric cgRNA mechanisms for both ON→OFF logic (conditional inactivation by an RNA trigger) and OFF→ON logic (conditional activation by an RNA trigger). Allosteric cgRNAs enable restriction of CRISPR / Cas function to a desired cell type, tissue, organ, or disease state. Allosteric cgRNAs provide a versatile platform for cell-selective and tissue-selective research tools, biotechnologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics.

Medical repair membrane with orthogonal limited split structure and preparation method thereof

PendingCN122351597AFiberCrazing
This invention provides a medical repair membrane with an orthogonal crack-limiting structure and its preparation method. This invention relates to the field of biomedical materials technology. The medical repair membrane of this invention comprises at least two electrospun fiber layers, which intersect to form an orthogonal fiber structure. Layer B, facing tissue integration, adopts a coaxial core-shell structure. The shell layer contains biodegradable polymers and bioactive components, while the core layer is a biodegradable polymer. The structure of this invention effectively inhibits crack propagation and improves the structural stability of the material. Simultaneously, the core-shell structure enables controlled release of active components and tissue-selective induction, balancing mechanical properties and biocompatibility. The medical repair membrane is suitable for soft tissue defect repair, such as dura mater repair, fascia repair, pericardial repair, and hernia repair.

A photo-prodrug molecule targeting PD-L1 immune checkpoint and preparation method and application thereof

PendingCN122404305APharmaceutical medicineTissue selectivity
This invention discloses a photoproduce molecule targeting the PD-L1 immune checkpoint, its preparation method, and its application. Addressing the lack of tissue selectivity in existing PD-L1 small molecule inhibitors, this invention provides a photoproduce molecule as shown in general formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which covalently links a PD-L1 inhibitor to coumarin via a cleavable linker bond. This photoproduce can be rapidly activated (<10 min) under ultraviolet light, simultaneously releasing the fluorophore and the parent drug, achieving spatiotemporally controllable release of PD-L1 inhibitor activity. This invention also provides a synthesis method and its application in photoimmunotherapy.

Medical imaging technique using x-ray to near-infrared downconverting nanopowder

A phosphor excitable by X-ray and blue-light emits light in the near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nanometers) forms nanoparticles less than 200 nanometers diameter. The nanoparticles are tagged by coating with silica, then conjugating with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and tissue-selective compounds such as antibodies, nucleic acid chains, and other ligands. In embodiments, we administer the tagged nanoparticles to a subject, then localize the nanoparticles, and thus antigen-bearing tissues, by irradiating the subject with X-ray or other radiation beams while imaging near infrared light emitted from the subject. The nanoparticles are made by mixing 1-50 micron calcium oxide and germanium oxide powders with dilute nitric acid, adding chromium (III) nitrate at a ratio to germanium between 0.001 and 0.1, adding tartaric acid solution with molar ratio to metal ions between 1˜10, and adjusting pH to 0.1-4 with nitric acid, then later heating to form a sol, oven drying, and calcinating the sol.
