Dr. 
Jorg Stetefeld has developed a novel way to deliver small molecule drugs within 
a protein “cage”. This may be used to: 
&nbsp;
·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
Deliver 
relatively insoluble drugs. 
&nbsp;
·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
It 
may be used to alter drug release, absorption, distribution, metabolism and 
elimination. 
&nbsp;
·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
The 
technology also provides a method to produce bio-engineered targeted ligands to 
deliver molecules to specific cell types.

Estrogen 
receptor (Er&#945;) status has become widely used as a key predictive biomarker of 
potential responsiveness to endocrine therapy in breast cancer. Positive 
receptor status predicts a positive outcome to endocrine therapy. This includes 
both estrogen analogue (including Tamoxifen) therapy and aromatase inhibitor 
therapy.
&nbsp;
It 
was subsequently learned that the phosphorylation status of Er&#945; provides an 
improved predictive tool for breast cancer responsiveness to endocrine 
therapy.

Murphy technology provides an improved predictive tool is based on single- an...]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Mar 2010 13:42:08 GMT</pubDate><author>tto@umanitoba.ca</author><guid>http://ttoumanitoba.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/4561</guid></item><item><title>Novel antibiotic chemistries: aminoglycoside-based cationic amphiphiles</title><caseId>80.02.676</caseId><link>http://ttoumanitoba.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/4560</link><description><![CDATA[
The 
antibiotics markets: 
The total world market is in the range of $25 billion a year and it is growing, 
at a time when the antibiotics pipeline is “bone dry”. 
&nbsp;

The 
Schwiezer/Zhanel technology offers an important new opportunity with the 
aminoglycoside molecules; a class well established for its effectiveness and 
well understood safety profile.
&nbsp;

Aminoglycosides 
constitute a large family of clinically important antibiotics They have broad 
spectrum activity against most Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and have 
proven useful over decades. Although they exhibit po...]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 15 Mar 2010 13:05:27 GMT</pubDate><author>tto@umanitoba.ca</author><guid>http://ttoumanitoba.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/4560</guid></item><item><title>A practical conducting polymer High molecular weight, self-doped Poly(anilineboronic acid)</title><caseId>80.02.501</caseId><link>http://ttoumanitoba.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/4290</link><description><![CDATA[The 
promise of the electrically-conducting polymers has been hampered until 
now
The 
electrically conducting polymers are of great potential applicability in 
industrial manufacture and use, however they have been hampered by low yields, 
low molecular weight polymers resulting in poor mechanical strength and 
stability. Also the materials are difficult to make and apply in an industrial 
process.

processable
