Abstract: The present invention provides a method for synthesizing heat shock protein-peptide complexes comprising the steps of: adding a shock protein to a denatured protein matrix to bind the heat shock protein to the denatured protein matrix; and adding a complexing solution comprising a peptide to elute a heat shock protein-peptide complex. The present invention also provides a heat shock protein-peptide complex synthesized by the method of the invention. In addition the present invention provides an apparatus for synthesizing heat shock protein-peptide complexes comprising a heat shock protein complex bound to a denatured protein matrix. The present invention also provides a method for treating an allergic disease in which a heat shock protein-antigen complex is administered to a mammal in an amount sufficient to reduce the susceptibility of the mammal to a Th2 response for the allergic disease. The method of the present invention can be used either to prevent an invididual from having an allergic reaction to an allergic disease or to reduce the effects of an allergic disease in an individual already suffering from the allergic disease.

Abstract: Les dispositifs de multiplexage/démultiplexage optique multicanal qui n'utilisent qu'un filtre d'interférence optique à sélection de longueur d'ondes, non variable et constant présentent de nombreux avantages. Le filtre (30) optique à sélection de longueur d'ondes est un filtre conventionnel d'interférence optique à longueur d'ondes fixe possédant une propriété de changement d'angle qui permet une variation de la sélection de longueur d'ondes en même temps que la variation des angles d'incidence sur le filtre. Etant donné que ces filtres sont transparents à une longueur d'ondes centrale différente suivant l'angle d'incidence d'un faisceau de lumière, le multiplexage et le démultiplexage sont réalisés par variation de l'angle d'incidence du faisceau (40) de lumière sur un seul filtre d'interférence optique, non variable et constant. Deux systèmes exemplaires de ce type font appel à une chambre à réflexion multiple conçue pour transmettre un faisceau de lumière selon des angles d'incidence variés successifs sur un seul filtre d'interférence.

Abstract: In order to easily measure the hepatic arterial blood
flow amount and the portal blood flow amount flowing through
the liver, a mixed gas supply apparatus (16) is used to
supply a mixed gas of xenon gas and oxygen gas to the lung
of a specimen (12) for a certain period of time so that the
change in xenon concentration in the tissue of the liver
(54) of the specimen (12) is measured (detected) while
making decomposition into picture elements by using an X-ray
CT system (14). The hepatic arterial blood flow amount and
the portal blood flow amount concerning the respective
picture elements obtained by the decomposition are
determined by using a computer on the basis of the fact that
the xenon concentration in the liver tissue is determined by
the xenon concentration in the hepatic arterial blood flow
and the xenon concentration in the portal blood flow.

Abstract: A regenerated collagen fiber is subjected to
water-insolubilizing treatment with a monofunctional
epoxy compound to produce a water-insolubilized
regenerated collagen fiber which can substantially
maintain the color and the high knot tenacity, inherent
in the collagen. Where the monofunctional epoxy
compound is an epihalohydrin, a regenerated collagen
fiber can be treated with this epihalohydrin and
a sulfur compound to produce a water-insolubilized
regenerated collagen fiber which can be permanent-wave
set. In addition, the water-insolubilized regenerated
collagen fiber can be converted into a fiber which can
be permanent-wave set, by introducing a disulfide
linkage into carboxylic groups of the collagen, which
remain unmodified by the insolubilizing treatment.

Abstract: Data delivery in GSM and UMTS co-existing networks is controlled by apparatus
located within the network infrastructure which predicts the trajectory of a
moving mobile station (26) requesting transmission or reception of data. By
knowing the trajectory of the mobile station (26), the transmission can be made
in an optimum manner by setting an appropriate transmission rate or delaying
transmission until the mobile station (26) reaches a cell (18) able to
accommodate faster data rates than its neighbours (17, 19). The trajectory
prediction is based on a learning process whereby a large population of mobile
stations' behaviour in a designated zone (5) is monitored over a period of time.
Mobile stations with like behaviourial characteristics are grouped together. A
mobile station (26) requesting a service for data transmission is matched to one
of the recorded groups from which its trajectory can be predicted. The invention
has been shown to be able to cut down the transmission times and improve the
call drop rate.

Abstract: A firing pin control device for a small arm is disclosed. The small arm includes a hammer, a housing including a fixed part, a slide disposed in the housing, with the slide being moveable between an open position and a closed position, and a firing pin mounted to the slide and being moveable relative to the slide along a linear path between a first position in which contact between the firing pin and the hammer is prevented and a second position in which contact between the firing pin and the hammer is permitted. The firing pin control assembly includes a pair of sleeves mounted in the slide, with the firing pin being slidable relative to the sleeves. A forward one of the sleeves engages the firing pin and is moveable between a forward position in which the firing pin is disposed in the first position and a rearward position in which the firing pin is disposed in the second position. The firing pin control assembly includes a counterspring arranged to bias the forward sleeve toward the forward position. A portion of the sleeve cooperates with the fixed housing part to thereby move the firing pin to the second position in response to movement of the slide to the closed position.

Abstract: L'ADNc du gène Alfin1 code pour un facteur de transcription potentiel associé à la tolérance au sel chez alfalfa (Medicago sativa L). La protéine recombinée se lie à l'ADN de manière spécifique par rapport aux séquences, y compris à des fragments de promoteur du gène MsPRP2 pouvant présenter une tolérance induite au sel. La fonction d'Alfin1 a été testée dans de l'alfalfa transgénique sous la commande du promoteur 35S dans les orientations sens et antisens, en utilisant MsPRP2 endogène comme gène rapporteur. Des cals surexprimant Alfin1 présentent une résistance plus élevée à une inhibition de croissance par 171 mM NaCl que par des éléments de commande transformés par un vecteur, alors que des cals exprimant l'antisens d'Alfin1 dans l'orientation sens sont plus sensibles à une inhibition de sel. Des plantes transgéniques surexprimant Alfin1 dans l'orientation sens présentaient une bonne croissance. Au contraire, les plantes transgéniques antisens présentent une faible croissance dans le sol, ce qui prouve que l'expression d'Alfin1 est essentielle pour le développement de plantes normales. Des cals et des racines de plantes transgéniques surexprimant Alfin1 présentent des taux élevés d'accumulation d'ARNm de MsPRP2 endogène. Cependant, l'accumulation d'ARNm de MsPRP2 est également régulée dans un tissu de manière spécifique, comme le montrent les feuilles de plantes transgéniques surexprimant Alfin1. Ces résultats suggèrent qu'Alfin1 agit comme régulateur de transcription chez les plantes et de l'expression de MsPRP2 chez alfalfa. Des plantes transgéniques surexprimant Alfin1 présentent une tolérance à la salinité comparable à celle d'une de nos plantes tolérantes au sel, ce qui indique qu'Alfin1 agit également dans la régulation de gènes de tolérance au sel.
