Title: Treatment to reduce edema for brain and musculature injuries
Inventor: WEI EDWARD T
IPC: A61K38/22
Filed: 1990-05-30
Abstract: Administration of a Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (or a salt or analog thereof) decreases the leakage of blood components into brain tissue produced by various adverse medical conditions and reduces bleeding when muscle tissues are cut and handled, such as in plastic and reconstructive surgery. A method of treating a patient for injury to or disease of the brain, central nervous system, or musculature in which edema is a factor comprises administering to the patient a Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (or a salt or analog) in an amount effective to decrease vascular permeability in the injured or diseased brain, nervous system tissue or musculature, and thereby to reduce edema. Administration in accordance with the method can be about two hours before surgery, or can be up to three days after injury.

Title: Transgenic tomato plants with altered polygalacturonase isoforms
Inventor: DELLAPENNA DEAN
IPC: A01H5/08
Filed: 1996-09-20
Abstract: A method of creating a transgenic tomato containing a lowered level of polygalacturonase isoform 1 is disclosed. This method begins with the step of isolating a DNA sequence encoding at least a portion of the polygalacturonase beta-subunit. This portion is sufficient to hybridize effectively to the mRNA of the polygalacturonase beta-subunit in vivo. A genetic construction is created from the cDNA clone in which the cDNA clone is positioned so that the antisense version of the polygalacturonase beta-subunit message may be produced from the clone. A tomato cell is transformed with the construction, whereby the tomato cell produces in the fruit a lowered level of PG beta-subunit and, hence, lowered levels of polygalacturonase isoform 1.
