Nanocomposite of Poly L-lactic acid with inorganic nanotubes
Strong, tough and bio-degradable polymer-based 3D-ink for fused deposition modeling (FDM) using inorganic WS2 nanotubes.WS2-NT are metals dichalcogenides nanotubes (NT) of the shape MX2 (M = transition metal, Mo, W, etc.; X = S, Se, Te). In its tube form, WS2 is a semiconductor, nontoxic, and dispersible in both organic solvents and polymers. With a […] Read More >
Deep Learning-based design of nano-photonics structures
TAU Researchers have developed a unique deep-learning algorithm that can predict the spectral response of nanostructures with high accuracy as well as provide a single nanostructure’s design, geometry and dimension, for a targeted or measured optical response. Nano-optics and Nano-photonics aim to do what is unachievable with standard linear optics, which is to go beyond […] Read More >
Macrolid Induced Correction of Premature Stop Codons: A novel Treatment for Colorectal Cancer
Restoration of premature termination codons (PTCs) caused by nonsense mutations for the treatment of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. The Need Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) is a high penetrance devastating syndrome manifested by dozens to thousands of colonic adenomas. FAP patients require tight supervision and eventually undergo surgery, to prevent inevitable development of colorectal cancer (CRC) by […] Read More >
An Effective Sema3A Antibody as a Therapy for Optic Nerve Neurodegenerative Diseases
Glaucoma and ischemic or neuro-degenerative diseases of the optic nerve lead to vision loss and blindness. These pathologies are associated with progressive apoptosis of the retinal ganglion cells (RGC), a process which involves expression of Semaphorin 3A protein in the axonal guidance pathways. The identified Sema3A antibody provides a potentially innovative therapeutic tool for these […] Read More >
Therapeutic Vaccine for the Treatment of Cancer
An active cancer vaccine strategy targeting tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens expressed on tumor cells using biomimetic glyconanoparticles generated from unique red blood cells. The resulting sustained immune response inhibits tumor growth. THE NEED While envisioned already in 1891, only a few cancer vaccines have been approved by the FDA thus far. The key barriers to their […] Read More >
SK4 K+ channel blockers: a new treatment for cardiac atrial fibrillation
We discovered a previously unidentified target in the heart, namely the SK4 calcium-activated K+ channels, which are functionally expressed in pacemaker cells as well as in atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes. They are crucial for proper cardiac function and represent a completely new therapeutic target for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. SK4 channel blockers successfully prevented […] Read More >
Ultra-low doses of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) for cognitive deficits
Ultra-low doses of THC for the treatment of cognitive deficits Prof. Sarne has published several studies on neuroprotection induced by ultra-low doses of THC against cognitive damage that results from various insults, including hypoxia, epileptic seizures, neurotoxicity and brain inflammation (see attached two articles). The advantage of using ultra low doses is […] Read More >
3D Bioprinting of Tumor Models for Personalized Drug Screening and Disease Modeling
This technology aims to provide a three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted tumor model based on natural and synthetic polymers containing several types of cells, which resembles cancer tissue. Our 3D-bioprinted tumor model has potential to predict the clinical outcome of a treatment compared to the other existing solutions, which either rely solely on genetic profiling or do […] Read More >
Novel Ionizable Lipids for Delivery of Nucleic Acids (mRNA, DNA, siRNA)
BackgroundChemotherapy treatment is generally accompanied by adverse effects, which can be significantly reduced using site specific, targeted delivery systems, such as antibody-coated LNPs (immuno-LNPs). However due to inter-and intra-tumor heterogeneity targeting with a single targeting moiety is not sufficient in many cases and in others may induce cancer relapse due to the survival of side […] Read More >
Partially coherent radar for car applications
Many different approaches for mapping nearby moving objects are under fast development nowadays due to a number of highly important emerging applications, including autonomous cars and many others. The majority of existent proposals for solving the problem are based on optical imaging with subsequent post processing. While this concept already delivered impressive working prototypes (e.g. […] Read More >
