Monoclonal Antibodies Binding to Transferrin Receptor (TfR) for Therapeutic Protein Delivery across Blood-Brain Barrier
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) limits brain entry and is one of the major hurdles in developing antibody and protein-based therapeutics for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. UTHealth researchers identified and engineered monoclonal antibodies binding to transferrin receptor (TfR) but not affecting transferrin (Tf) binding to TfR. An engineered monovalent...

Combination Drug for Preventing Early Hippocampal Synapse Loss and Cognitive Deficits in Alzheimer's Disease
Technology Description: We present a new combination drug for the pharmaceutical treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) based on our discovery of a novel mechanism of hippocampal vulnerability in AD patients. Hippocampal synaptic injury and neurodegeneration are defining pathological features of the cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease...

Formulation of HDACi Loaded ß-Cyclodextrin-poly (ß-amino ester) Nanoparticles
Researchers have developed a novel formulation strategy to encapsulate molecules, including but not limited to histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) drugs in nanoparticle networks composed of beta-cyclodextrin-poly(beta-amino esters). Advantages of this system include high loading capacity, increased in vivo tolerability, sustained release, and improved...
