A method of data interpretation from a multiplex cancer assay is described. The aggregate normalized score from the assay is transformed to a quantitative risk score quantifying a human subject's increased risk for the presence of cancer as compared to the known prevalence of the cancer in the population before testing the subject.

Methods and algorithms for aiding in the detection of cancer

The present invention relates to drug screening methods and methods of preventing neural tissue damage caused by &#x3b1;-synuclein aggregation. These methods are especially useful in the design and development of inhibitors of Lewy body diseases and other synucleinopathies, and further useful in the treatment of such neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's Disease.

Isolated peptides to treat alpha-synuclein diseases

The present invention relates to methods of treating ischemia-related conditions by administering to a patient in need of such methods certain thiosemicarbazone compounds. Preferred embodiments of the present invention relates to methods of treating specific ischemia-related conditions, including but not limited to Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Coronary artery bypass graft surgery, Global cerebral ischemia due to cardiac arrest, focal cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, hemorrhage infarction, hypertensive hemorrhage. hemorrhage due to rupture of intracranial vascular abnormalities, subarachnoid hemorrhage due to rupture of intracranial arterial aneurysms, hypertensive encephalopathy, carotid stenosis or occlusion leading to cerebral ischemia, cardiogenic thromboembolism, spinal stroke and spinal cord injury, diseases of cerebral blood vessels: e.g., atherosclerosis, vasculitis, Macular degeneration, myocardial infarction, cardiac ischemia and superaventicular tachyarrhytmia.

Methods of treating ischemic related conditions

The present invention provides methods of determining aggregation of &agr;-synuclein, which are a hallmark of Lewy body diseases such as Parkinson's disease. Also disclosed are inhibitors of the aggregation, including magnesium and &agr;-synuclein binding peptides. The inhibitors are useful in the treatment of Lewy body diseases.
