Murine Hybridoma producing Monoclonal Antibodies against Human NKp44Colonna, Marco
T-004356
— Target: NKp44 is a novel triggering surface molecular specifcially expressed by activated natural killer cells. Notes: Clone name 448.189 Marco Colonna, MDInventors generated NKp44 monocolonal antibodies by immunizing mice with a NKp44-human crystallizable fragment (Fc) fusion protein. The antibodies have been used to study innate and adaptive immune responses. Publication: Paradoxic inhibition of human natural interferon-producing cells by the activ…
IL-1 beta deficient miceFerguson, Thomas ; Chaplin, David
T-001876
— Mouse strain deficient in IL-1 betaInventors created the IL-1 beta deficient mouse strain by targeting the IL-1 beta gene in embryonic stem cells. These mice develop and grow normally. Endotoxin-stimulated peritoneal macrophages from IL-1beta- deficient mice showed normal synthesis and cellular release of IL- 1alpha after treatment w…
High-speed, low-cost, short-haul optical communications with on-chip polarization division multiplexingIvanovich, Darko ; Gruev, Viktor ; Chamberlain, Roger
T-018955
— Technology Description Engineers in Prof. Roger Chamberlain’s laboratory have developed a low-cost multiplexing technology for high-speed optical communications in data centers and other short-haul applications. This visible light communication (VLC) system is designed to create distinct par…
Steerable Thermoablation Probe for Improved Access to Brain LesionsLeuthardt, Eric
T-015768
— Technology Description An interdisciplinary team led by Professor Eric Leuthardt has developed a steerable device that can be integrated into existing thermoablation systems to treat abnormal brain lesions. Thermoablation is a more targeted and less disruptive method for treating lesions than chem…
