Recent Patent Applications

Representative Biotechnology patent applications from 7th August 2025:

20250248376. METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR TREATING NEUROPATHIES CAUSED BY A CNTNAP1 MUTATION

Applicant: Board of Regents The University of Texas System

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions useful in treating a neuropathy caused by a CNTNAP1 mutation. Transgenic animal models and cell lines are disclosed for the study of neuropathies caused by a CNTNAP1 mutation. Methods of screening and identifying active agents for the treatment of neuropathies caused by a CNTNAP1 mutation are also provided.

20250248377. NON-HUMAN ANIMALS HAVING A HUMANIZED TSLP GENE, A HUMANIZED TSLP RECEPTOR GENE, AND/OR A HUMANIZED IL7RA GENE

Applicant: Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc

Abstract: Disclosed herein are rodents (such as, but not limited to, mice and rats) genetically modified to comprise a humanized Tslp gene, a humanized Tslpr gene, a humanized Il7ra gene, or a combination thereof. Compositions and methods for making such genetically modified rodents, as well as methods of using such genetically modified rodents as an animal model for diseases such as allergic diseases and cancer are provided.

20250248378. TRANSGENIC ANIMALS FOR MERCURY BIOREMEDIATION

Applicant: Macquarie University

Abstract: There is provided a transgenic animal comprising heterologous nucleic acid encoding a bacterial organomercurial lyase and/or a bacterial mercuric reductase, wherein the transgenic animal expresses the bacterial organomercurial lyase and/or a bacterial mercuric reductase to reduce the toxicity of a mercury compound.

20250248379. piRNA-BASED CONSTRUCTS FOR REGULATING GENE EXPRESSION AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

Applicant: Rutgers The State University of New Jersey

Abstract: This disclosure is based, in part, on the unexpected discovery that a piRNA-based construct is able to silence genes that are essential for transmission and/or infection of pathogens. The disclosed constructs and methods of use thereof capitalize on the role piRNAs play in transcriptional silencing and general immunity and enable development of transgenic approaches to inhibit transmission of human and crop diseases.

20250248406. NOVEL INSECT INHIBITORY PROTEINS

Applicant: Monsanto Technology LLC

Abstract: Pesticidal proteins exhibiting inhibitory, suppressive, and toxic activity against Lepidopteran pest species are disclosed, and include, but are not limited to, TIC4064 and TIC4064 amino acid sequence variants. DNA constructs are provided which contain a recombinant nucleic acid sequence encoding one or more of the disclosed pesticidal proteins. Transgenic plants, plant cells, seed, and plant parts resistant to Lepidopteran infestation are provided which contain recombinant nucleic acid sequence...
