Quantification of Phosphorylated Alpha-synuclein in Cutaneous Biopsies as a Prospective Biomarker in Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to assess the levels of phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (P-SYN) in patients with Parkinson's disease and REM Behavior Disorder using a minimally invasive skin punch biopsy. It seeks to understand the natural progression of P-SYN deposition over time to explore the potential of P-SYN quantification as a biomarker for …
A Biospecimen Collection Study to Identify the Targets of Disease-Reactive T Cells in Patients with Autoimmune Disease
The most clinically meaningful way to discover new targets of T cells in autoimmune diseases is to study the tissues of patients with active autoimmune disease mediated organ inflammation. These tissues contain both cytotoxic and helper T cells that are driving their disease, and these T cells are being guided …
Trial Readiness and Endpoint Assessment in LGMD R1
This is a 24-month, observational study of 100 participants with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type R1, also known as CAPN3.
Role of Angiogenesis in Dermatologic Diseases: A Potential Therapeutic Target
The researchers believe that pro-angiogenic factors are upregulated in a wide range of dermatologic diseases including port wine stains, hemangiomas, angiofibromas, Kaposi's sarcoma, angiosarcoma, scars, rosacea and psoriasis. The researcher can perform immunohistochemistry and/or microarray analysis and/or quantitative polymerase chain reaction on previously biopsied skin specimens and newly biopsied skin …
Development and Analysis of a Stool Bank for Cancer Patients
This study is aimed at understanding the impact of gut microbiota on efficacy of cancer therapies, in particular checkpoint inhibitors, and using the resulting information to design microbial immunotherapies. Although animal models are of use to determine the influences of gut and other microbiota on cancer treatment modalities, they are …
Observational Study to Assess Endpoint Operational Feasibility & Measurement Properties in Patients with Retinal Degeneration
The Vision Research and Assessment Institute (VRAI) was established with the purpose of serving as a testing facility for efficacy endpoints for patients with Low Vision. The mission of the VRAI is to enable the highest quality, standardized efficacy testing of patients with visual impairment. The VRAI facilitates the development …
Ethnic Influences on Stress, Energy Balance and Obesity in Adolescents
The study will examine the mechanisms linking race, stress and biobehavioral factors to energy balance and obesity in both natural and controlled environments in African-American and Caucasian adolescent females. A Hispanic/Latina cohort has recently been added with permission for the sponsor.
