Abstract: An organ perfusion apparatus and method monitor, sustain and/or restore viability of organs and preserve organs for storage and/or transport. Other apparatus include an organ transporter, an organ cassette and an organ diagnostic device. The method includes perfusing the organ at hypothermic and/or normothermic temperatures, preferably after hypothermic organ flushing for organ transport and/or storage. The method can be practiced with prior or subsequent static or perfusion hypothermic exposure of the organ. Organ viability is restored by restoring high energy nucleotide (e.g., ATP) levels by perfusing the organ with a medical fluid, such as an oxygenated cross-linked hemoglobin-based bicarbonate medical fluid, at normothermic temperatures. During the period in which the organ is preserved and/or maintained, various drug research and development may be performed on and/or with the organ. The organ may be perfused with a fluid containing a substance such as a test substance to obtain data regarding the organ, the substance and an interaction of the substance and the organ. The data may then be used to ultimately provide information regarding the drugs efficacy in support of regulatory filings for new drugs.

Title: Use of equol for treating skin diseases
Inventor: LEPHART EDWIN DOUGLAS
IPC: A61K31/353
Filed: 2005-02-17
Abstract: [0177] Equol (7-hydroxy-3(4'hydroxyphenyl)-chroman), the major metabolite of the phytoestrogen daidzein, specifically binds and blocks the hormonal action of 5a~dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in vitro and in vivo. Equol can bind circulating free DHT and sequester it from the androgen receptor, thus altering growth and physiological hormone responses that are regulated by androgens. These data suggest a novel model to explain equol's biological properties. The significance of equol's ability to specifically bind and sequester DHT from the androgen receptor have important ramifications in health and disease and may indicate a broad and important usage for equol in the treatment and prevention of androgen-mediated pathologies of skin and hair. Thus, equol can specifically bind DHT and prevent DHT's biological actions in physiological and pathophysiological processes affecting skin and hair.

Abstract: A tissue repair has at least two attachment points for a suture to create a broad area of contact between tissue in bone. When two anchor points are used, the suture extends between and is attached to the two attachment points to create a suture band. When two on more attachment points are used, a first anchor point in the bone has one or more loops. The first anchor point is preferably located on a medial location at the repair site when performing rotator cuff repair. For other types of repair procedures, the first anchor point is different and located as required. The loop or loops are passed through the soft tissue at points spaced from one another. The loop or loops are then captured and secured at anchor points laterally during rotator cuff repair and spaced from the first anchor point and from one another. When complete, the loop or loops are in the form of a "V" and a large area of contact between the soft tissue and bone is established. When more than two loops are used, each loop extends from the first attachment point to another attachment point.
