Filed:

Mar 17, 2017

Appl. No.:

15/462680

Inventors:

- Oakland CA, US
Tri Cong Nguyen - San Diego CA, US

International Classification:

C12Q 1/68
G06F 19/18
G06F 19/24

Abstract:

Methods and compositions for generating chimeric RNAs comprising RNAs which interact with one another in a cell are provided. In some embodiments, the chimeric RNAs can be used to identify at least 100, at least 500, at least 1000 or more than 1000 RNA-RNA interactions in the cell.

International Classification:

A61B 17/00
A61B 17/88

Abstract:

In repairing soft tissue with a bone anchoring instrument (such as reattaching a tendon of a torn rotator cuff), the bone anchoring instrument may be used to anchor the soft tissue to a region of bone. The anchors inserted into the underlying bone may have one or more lengths of suture or wire attached thereto which may be tensioned independently of one another to affix the soft tissue to the bone by having a selector mechanism selectively engage and disengage ratcheted tensioning wheels from one another. Suture loading mechanisms may be employed for passing suture lengths into and/or through the anchors prior to deployment into the bone where such mechanisms may employ suture snares which are configured to reconfigure from an expanded shape through which suture lengths may be easily passed to a low-profile shape which secures the suture lengths within the snare.
