Title: Compositions and methods for improving the functional efficacy of stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes
Inventor: LI RONALD
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 2008-09-11
Abstract: This invention provides an isolated stem cell that has been modified to provide, enhance or contain the functional characteristics of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The isolated stem cells are modified in one or more of the following manners: by expressing a calcium channel protein; by expressing a calcium pump protein such as the sarcro/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) protein; by inhibiting or downregulating expression of the Na+/Ca +  exchanger (NCX) protein; by expressing a calcium handling protein; by expressing a transverse (t)-tubule; and/or by expressing a transverse (t)-tubule biogenic protein. After the cell has been modified, it may be expanded to a substantially homogenous population of these cells or alternatively, differentiated to a more mature cell type. Compositions containing these cells and population of cells are also provided by this invention. The cells and compositions can be used to regenerate cardiac tissue, improve cardiac function, restore action potential of cardiac tissue; and treat or prevent cardiac malfunction. These methods can be achieved by administering an effective amount of a cell or population of cells or tissue of this invention to a host in need thereof. The cells and population of cells can be used diagnostically to screen drug or other therapeutic candidates.

Patent CA-2706850-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROLOVIC RADOVAN
IPC: E21B44/00
Filed: 2008-11-24
Abstract: A method for hydraulically controlling the direction of a drill bit or bottom hole assembly containing a drill contains lateral orifices which can be selectively opened and closed to move a portion of drilling fluid from the drill string out into a narrow gap between the lateral orifices and a lateral bore hole face or wall, which produces a lateral hydraulic force to thereby push the drill bit or bottom hole assembly in an opposite direction of the fluid flow through the lateral orifices. The apparatus for accomplishing this hydraulic steering can provide for the movement of the tip of the orifice into close proximity with the bore hole face to thereby increase the lateral hydraulic force created. This method can also be adapted to push-the-bit bore hole pads to minimize their contact with the bore hole while increasing the lateral force obtained by their engagement.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for constructing a data unit that includes a buffer status report (BSR) such that when BSR triggering is performed, the size(s) of the necessary subheader(s) are also to be considered together in addition to the BSR size. There is a checking unit that checks whether any padding region is available in a MAC PDU that was constructed, a comparing unit that compares the number of padding bits with the size of a buffer status report (BSR) plus its sub-header, and a processing unit that cooperates with the checking unit and the comparing unit to trigger a buffer status report (BSR) procedure if the number of padding bits is larger than the size of the BSR plus its sub-header, including the BSR and its sub-header in the MAC PDU, and setting an LCID in the sub-header to indicate a BSR is included, the BSR having been triggered due to padding. Using such apparatus allows the sub-header(s) to be inserted (included) into the MAC PDU (or transport block (TB) or other data unit).

Title: Automatic bow sighting device with range finding means
Inventor: MAINSONNEUVE BENOIT
IPC: F41G3/06
Filed: 2011-05-25
Abstract: Disclosed is an archery bow sighting device that incorporates a laser range finder, an automatically adjusting sight pin, trigger control and distance indicator. The device incorporates imbedded electronics and a gearing mechanism to adjust a sighting pin based on distance to target and calibrated distance data. The user aims the laser range finder at a designated target for determination of its distance, after which the sight pin is automatically adjusted to account for the distance and is used to aim at the target. To accurately aim the range finder, a peep sight along the length of the bow string is aligned with crosshairs within the range finder while aiming at the intended target. A  trigger button along the bow pulses the laser range finder to determine distance, and the sighting pin elevation is updated accordingly by the imbedded electronic circuit and interpolation of preset distances. The device is attachable to any archery bow sight rail, and provides a means to quickly update a range to target if the target is mobile. A  trigger button controls the device in use, while power is supplied by a user harnessed battery pack and wire tether.
