Patent EP-0716697-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MATLASHEWSKI GREGORY
IPC: A61P33/02
Filed: 1994-09-01
Abstract: Differentially expressed Leishmania genes and proteins are described. One differentially expressed gene (A2) is expressed at significantly elevated levels (more than about 10 fold higher) in the amastigote stage of the life cycle when the Leishmania organism is present in macrophages than in the free promastigote stage. The A2 gene encodes a 22 kD protein (A2 protein) that is recognized by kala-azar convalescent serum and has amino acid sequence homology with an S-antigen of Plasmodium falciparum Vietnamese isolate VI. Differentially expressed Leishmania genes and proteins have utility as vaccines, diagnostic reagents, as tools for the generation of immunological reagents and the generation of attenuated variants of Leishmania.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel assay methods for identifying compounds that may have both estrogen agonist and antagonist properties. In particular, the assay use cells comprising promoters having an AP1 site linked to a reporter gene. Compounds capable of inducing or blocking expression of the reporter gene can thus be identified. The compounds may be futher tested for the ability to modulate the standard estrogen response, as well.

Abstract: Disclosed is a novel integrated process for production of cyclic esters which includes recovery of starting materials, such as lactic acid from a dilute aqueous lactic acid-containing solution, by solvent extraction. The starting materials are then formed into cyclic esters by removal of water wherein the concentration of higher molecular weight oligomers is maintained below about 20 wt % of the reaction composition. The process further includes providing a recovery solvent for the reaction composition and separating the cyclic esters from the starting materials and higher molecular weight oligomers by liquid-liquid equilibrium separation. The present invention is further directed toward independent novel unit operations of the overall process. The present invention provides for the efficient production and recovery of cyclic esters due to integration of the various unit operations by use of appropriate solvents and recycle streams. In addition, high rates of conversion of starting materials and high rates of selective production of cyclic esters are achieved by appropriate control of process parameters.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for drastically reducing the average error rate for signals under mismatched conditions. The method takes a signal (e.g., speech signal) and a set of stored representations (e.g., stored representations of keywords) and performs at least one transformation that results in the signal more closely emulating the stored representations. This is accomplished by using one of three techniques. First, one may transform the signal so that the signal may be better approximated by (e.g., is closer to) one of the stored representations. Second, one may transform the set of stored representations so that one of the stored representations better approximates the signal. Third, one may transform both the signal and the set of stored representations.

Abstract: The invention provides a circuit for analyzing backscatter-modulated RF signals received from a remote transponder to determine whether the transponder is stationary or moving toward the reader or away from it and, if moving, the rate at which the transponder is coming or going. The circuit of the invention can be integrated with existing readers of the type described in U.S. Patent No. 4,739,328 and requires only a single antenna. In response to the signal received from a transponder, the invention circuit generates three signals, each having a different phase. By analyzing the pattern and frequency of signal state changes in the three signals, the invention can determine the transponder's speed and direction of movement.

Abstract: Method for treating a proliferative skin disorder, such as psoriasis, in a human patient having affected and non-affected areas of skin. The method comprises the steps of: (1) topically applying a sunscreen providing photo-protection to the affected and non-affected areas of skin; (2) waiting for a time period sufficient for the skin of the affected areas to be substantially sloughed off; and, (3) exposing the affected and non-affected areas of skin of the patient to a selected level of optical radiation. The level of radiation is chosen to be sufficient to treat the affected areas of skin and insufficient to cause significant damage to the non-affected areas of skin. The method enhances effectiveness and safety of treatment by providing preferential photo-protection to the non-affected skin areas, and may be used for phototherapy, photochemotherapy, or photodynamic therapy.
