The present invention provides a recombinant eukaryotic cell expressing one or more heterologous double strand break (DSB) repair proteins in an amount effective for enhancing DSB repair in the cell. The recombinant eukaryotic cell may express a recombinant product of interest. Also provided are methods for enhancing double strand break (DSB) repair in eukaryotic cells, establishing host cells for production of a recombinant product of interest, producing a recombinant product of interest, improving production of a recombinant product of interest by eukaryotic cells, and/or investigating suitability of eukaryotic cells as host cells for producing a recombinant product of interest.

Method to alter Chinese hamster ovary cell line stability

The invention relates a method for producing a stable recombinant protein, comprising growing a non-naturally occurring host cell in a culture medium to produce a recombinant protein, and making a composition comprising the recombinant protein and a polysorbate. The production of endogenous lipoprotein lipase by the host cell is reduced. The endogenous lipoprotein lipase is present in the composition in a small amount, and is capable of degrading the polysorbate. The invention also relates to the relevant host cells and compositions, and preparation thereof.

Reduction of lipase activity in product formulations

The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a subject's Alzheimer's disease state. The method involves providing a database containing information relating to protein expression levels associated and not associated with Alzheimer's disease. The database includes information relating to at least a majority of the following proteins: albumin, alpha-1-antitrypsin, apolipoprotin E, apolipoprotein J, complement component 3, contactin, fibrin beta, Ig heavy chain, Ig light chain, neuronal pentraxin receptor, plasminogen, proSAAS, retinol-binding protein, transthyretin, and vitamin D binding protein. Information relating to proteins found in one or more cerebrospinal fluid samples from a subject is also provided and a database is used to analyze the information from the subject to diagnose the subject's Alzheimer's disease state. Also disclosed is a computer readable medium and a system, both useful in carrying out the present invention.

Multiplexed biomarkers for monitoring the Alzheimer's disease state of a subject

The present invention relates to a host cell comprising a cofilin-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) sequence. The host cell may further comprise a nucleic acid encoding a recombinant protein. The present invention also relates to a method for producing a recombinant protein by the host cell comprising a cofilin-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) sequence.
