Methods of repairing a joint formed by at least two bone sections are provided wherein a biocompatible osteogenic band fabricated from an osteogenic biological material such as bone, tendon, ligament and collagen is affixed to two or more bone sections.

Biocompatible osteogenic band for repair of spinal disorders

Compositions, systems and methods that allow for the detection of the actual physical delivery of a pharmaceutical agent to a body are provided. Embodiments of the compositions include an identifier and an active agent. The invention finds use in a variety of different applications, including but not limited to, monitoring of therapeutic regimen compliance, tracking the history of pharmaceutical agents, etc.

Pharma-informatics system

This invention provides conjugates of therapeutic or active agents with melanotransferrin or with other ligands of a melanotransferrin receptor, melanotransferrin receptor modulators, and related compositions and methods for modulating blood-brain barrier transport by providing methods of screening and selecting such conjugates, ligands, and modulators in vitro and in vivo, and methods of use of such conjugates, modulators and ligands in diagnosis and the treatment of diseases, including particularly diseases of the central nervous system or lysosomal storage diseases.

Compositions and methods for modulating blood-brain barrier transport

Provided are compositions and methods useful for modulation of signaling through the Toll-like receptors TLR7 and/or TLR8. The compositions and methods have use in treating or preventing disease, including cancer, autoimmune disease, infectious disease, inflammatory disorder, graft rejection, and graft-verses-host disease.

Substituted benzoazepines as toll-like receptor modulators

Provided are compositions and methods useful for modulation signaling through the Toll-like receptor TLR8. The compositions and methods have use in the treatment of autoimmunity, inflammation allergy, asthma, graft rejection, graft versus host disease, infection, sepsis, cancer and immunodeficiency.

Aminodiazepines as toll-like receptor modulators

Propylamines of the formula (I): ##STR1## and isomers thereof, particularly those enantiomers and racemates relative to the chiral carbon indicated by an asterisk (*). The propylamines can be used for the treatment of hypertension or angina in humans. A is pyrrolidine, piperidine or morpholine, Z is alkylene, alkenylene, oxygen or a sulfur atom and W is an oxygen or a sulfur atom.

3-alkoxy-2-aminopropyl heterocyclic amines and their use as cardiovascular agents

Propylamines of the formula (I): ##STR1## and isomers thereof, particularly those enantiomers and racemates relative to the chiral carbon indicated by an asterisk (*). The propylamines can be used for the treatment of hypertension or angina in humans. A is pyrrolidine, piperidine or morpholine and B is an aromatic heterocycle, aromatic carbocycle or saturated carbocycle.
