Title: Prevention and treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) by antagonism of the receptor to glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (gip)
Inventor: WOLFE MICHAEL M
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: The present invention concerns the use of various forms of GIP-receptor antagonists to attenuate the insulin response to GIP following meals in animals, such as humans, to prevent, reduce, inhibit and/or treat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by virtue of its prevention and/or reversal of hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance. Thus, the use of the GIP-receptor antagonists in any effective form is believed to prevent the development and reverse the process of NAFLD. The present invention is accomplished by administering an effective amount of an antagonistic agent, such as a GIP antagonist or an antisense molecule, to antagonize, block, inhibit or ablate the receptor to Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP).

Patent EP-1756277-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GOULIAEV ALEX HAAHR
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2003-12-19
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the synthesis of molecules guided by connector polynucleotides (CPNs) capable of hybridizing to complementory connector polynucleotides (CCPNs) harbouring at least one functional entity comprising at least one reactive group. At least one of said CCPNs hybridize to at least two CPNs. Each CPN will "call" for one or more CCPNs capable of hybridising to the CPN. Following the formation of a supramolecular hybridization complex comprising a plurality of CPNs and a plurality of CCPNs, the reaction of functional entity reactive groups result in the formation of a molecule comprising covalently linked functional entities. The formation of the molecule involves the transfer of functional entities from one or more "donor CCPNs" to at least one "acceptor CCPN" with which the transferred functional entities were not associated prior to the transfer.

is printed with a tint block image added thereon. More
specifically, a physical page that is a printable area of
printing paper is divided into areas, an intended
document/image is printed in each of these divided areas
(logical pages), and a tint block image is printed only
in an area that is in this physical page but does not belong
to any of the logical pages. Using a fact that a margin
is produced in the so-called N-up printing, the tint block
image is printed in this margin. Thereby, the tint block
