Abstract: Preparing pyroGlu-MCP-1 (A; MCP = monocyte chemoattractant protein-1) from recombinant Gln-MCP-1 (B) by incubating (B) at 30-80 [deg] C in a buffer, of pH 2-7.5, that contains 10-160 mM salt until at least 90% of MCP-1 is converted to (A). ACTIVITY : Cardiant; Vasotropic; Cerebroprotective. MECHANISM OF ACTION : CCR2 agonist; CCR4 agonist. MCP-1 is an agonist of the beta -chemokine receptors CCR2 and 4, which are involved in activation of monocytes and adhesion of integrins, resulting in bonding of monocytes to endothelial cells. This causes extravasation of monocytes from the vascular system, and thus growth of collateral and/or other arteries.

Abstract: A power converter provides power to a phased-array radar antenna system. The converter adjusts its internal zero-voltage switching current so that it efficiently provides a clean power signal over a wide range of potential loads. More specifically, the zero-voltage switching current is increased in response to a decrease in load. The zero-voltage switching current in the converter can be maintained based on use of the same control signals that are otherwise used to regulate (via switching) the voltage output of the converter.
