Breast Tumor Targeted Fluorescence Guidance for Intraoperative Margin Assessment
This technology is an anti-CEACAM6 antibody tagged with fluorescent labels. The idea is that these fluorescent antibodies can be used for real-time molecular fluorescence imaging to help guide the surgical removal of a tumor. This technology is targeted toward breast cancer.
Background:
Over half of the 270,000 breast cancer diagnoses in the United...

Urinalysis Test for a Compromised Gastrointestinal Tract
This technology is an orally administered compound that identifies a compromised gastrointestinal tract, especially in diseases that cause "leaks" in to the blood. If the GI tract is compromised, the compound will be found in the urine and a simple urinalysis can be completed. If the individual is healthy the compound will be expelled in the...

A GI-Specific Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging
A scaffold bearing eight terminal alkyne groups was synthesized from sucrose, and copies of an azide-terminated Gd-DOTA complex were attached via copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition in this invention. This contrast agent (CA) was administered by gavage to C3H mice. Passage of the CA through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract was followed by...

Toll-like Receptor 2 Ligands and Methods of Making and Using Thereof
Inventors at the University of Arizona have developed a set of 13 high-affinity toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) agonists. In certain diseases, particularly pancreatic cancer, these receptors are overexpressed. TLR2 agonists are absorbed by these receptors. When the ligands are labeled with fluorescent proteins, the tumors can be identified. Additionally,...

A Novel Gd-Sucrose Scaffold for Oral Administration in MR-Colonography at 7 T
This invention is a Gadolinium-DOTA sucrose-derived agent synthesized with eight Gadolinium-DOTA chelates per sucrose and a molecular structure to induce stiffness and increase the rotational correlation time. For in vivo assessment, SCID mice were intra-rectally injected with human CRC cells. Then, the mice received the Gadolinium-DOTA sucrose-derived...
