    BALTHASAR, JOSEPH P Principal Investigator (2011-04-18)
    DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a common autoimmune disease that is associated with ~50,000 new cases each year in the United States. Approximately 25-30% of chronic ITP patients ...
  • DEVELOPING INHIBITORS OF LUXS-DEPENDENT QUORUM SENSING SYSTEMS IN ORAL BACTERIA
    LI, CHUNHAO Principal Investigator (2011-04-18)
    DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Quorum sensing is a type of bacterial cell-to-cell communication, and it is achieved through the production, release and detection of small signaling molecules called autoinducers (AIs). ...
