IgG Monoclonal Antibodies to Enterococcus Faecalis Gelatinase
Shaikh, Nurmohammad ; Tarr, Phillip
T-011748

— Primary Inventor: Phillip I. Tarr, MD Target: GelE(mAb 8A3)Monoclonal antibodies against E. faecalis gelatinase developed as a treatment for Crohn’s disease. E. faecalis secretes many proteins into the gastrointestinal enviroment – such as Gelatinase (GelE). GelE degrades several proteins including gelatin, collagin, hemoglobin, and bioactive peptides.…

d42m1 & F279 tumor cell lines
Schreiber, Robert
T-011286

— D42m1 is a methycholanthrene (MCA) induced sarcoma cell line generated in 129S6 strain RAG2 gene targeted mice. These cells are highly immunogenic and are rejected when transplanted into syngeneic naive wild type mice. F244 is an MCA induced sarcoma cell line generated in wild type 129S6 mice. Thes…
