Patent CA-2442366-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LAN-HARGEST HSUAN-YIN
IPC: C07D307/54
Filed: 2002-03-25
Abstract: Histone deacetylase is a metallo-enzyme with zinc at the active site.  Compounds having a zinc-binding moiety, such as, for example, a hydroxamic acid group or a carboxylic acid group, can inhibit histone deacetylase.  Histone deacetylase inhibition can repress gene expression, including expression of genes related to tumor suppression. Accordingly, inhibition of histone deacetylase can provide an alternate route for treating cancer, hematological disorders, e.g., hemoglobinopathies, and genetic related metabolic disorders, e.g., cystic fibrosis and adrenoleukodystrophy.
Patent CA-2442950-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DESPINS CHARLES
IPC: H04B17/318
Filed: 2003-09-26
Abstract: The location of people, mobile terminals and equipment in a mine is of great current interest. In an indoor environment such as a mine (may be generalised to any indoor environment), the multipath caused by reflection from walls, ceiling, floor and objects, and the non-line of sight (NLOS) due to the blockage of the shortest direct path between the transmitter and receiver are the main sources of range measurement errors. The unreliable measurements of location metrics such as RSS, AOA and TOA/TDOA yield to the deterioration of the positioning performance. Hence, alternatives to the traditional parametric geolocation techniques have to be considered.   In this paper, we present a novel method for mobile station location using wideband channel measurements' results applied to an artificial neural network (ANN).  The proposed system (WBNN-Locate) learns off-line the location 'signatures' from the extracted location dependent features of the measured channel impulse responses data (any relevant location dependent parameter may also be used) for LOS and NLOS situations. It then matches on-line the observation received from a mobile station against the learned set of 'signatures' to accurately locate its position.   With this approach, multipath becomes useful since it improves location 'signatures' characterisation, and the presence of a line of sight (LOS) is no longer essential, unlike in other geolocation techniques. The proposed location system has the characteristic to operate with a single fixed station and may be applied to a three-dimensional environment.   The error median distance and the 90th percentile of the error distance found with this technique were 1.2 m and 2 m, respectively.

Title: Antitumor agents
Inventor: YAMANO MAYUMI
IPC: C07D403/04
Filed: 2002-05-08
Abstract: It has been confirmed that antitumor agents containing as the active ingredient (3R)-N-(1-(1-tert-butylcarbonylmethyl)-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-5-(2- pyridyl)-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-3-yl)-N'-(3-(methylamino)phenyl)urea favorably inhibit the proliferation of cancer in various cancer-carrying mice and have a low toxicity. These agents are particularly useful in treating pancreatic cancer, intestinal cancer and gastric cancer. In case of using these drugs i n polypharmaceutical chemotherapy, the administration dose of an antitumor age nt having strong side effects can be lowered. It is therefore expected that polypharmaceutical chemotherapy achieving a favorable antitumor effect and relieved side effects can be thus embodied.
