Title: Universal libraries for immunoglobulins
Inventor: CREA ROBERTO
IPC: C07K16/00
Filed: 2003-04-16
Abstract: Libraries of immunoglobulins of interest are described, the libraries containing mutated immunoglobulins of interest in which a single predetermin ed amino acid has been substituted in one or more positions in one or more complementarity-determining regions of the immunoglobulin of interest. The libraries comprise a series of subset libraries, in which the predetermined amino acid is "walked through" each of the six complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of the immunoglobulin of interest not only individually but also for each of the possible combinatorial variations of the CDRs, resultin g in subset libraries that include mutated immunoglobulins having the predetermined amino acid at one or more positions in each CDR, and collectively having the predetermined amino acid at each position in each CD R. The invention is further drawn to universal libraries containing one such library for each naturally-occurring amino acid as the single predetermined amino acid, totaling twenty libraries; and also to libraries of nucleic acid s encoding the described libraries.

Inventor: MCCUSKER DANIEL J
IPC: A61M39/22
Filed: 2005-09-29
Abstract: A valve for use in a shunt system to drain fluid from one part of a patient's body to another is provided. In an exemplary embodiment, the valve is operable at a threshold pressure that is selectively adjustable up to at least about 400 mm H2O at increments in the range of about mm H2O to 40 mm H2O. The ability of the valve to operate at a high threshold pressure and to be adjusted at relatively small increments renders the valve particularly advantageous for use in younger hydrocephalus patients. In particular, the operating pressure of the valve can be gradually limited in small increments over a period of time to slowly force the patient's own resorption system to circulate cerebrospinal fluid. At high operating pressures of at least about 400 mm H2O shunt independence can be achieved thereby allowing the shunt to be successfully removed.
