Title: Composition for inhibiting cancer metastasis containing dlk1-fc fusion protein as an active ingredient
Inventor: PARK YOUNG WOO
IPC: C07K14/475
Filed: 2010-04-13
Abstract: A recombinant expression vector, comprising extracellular soluble domain genes of DLK1 and IgG antibody Fc domain genes, is constructed, and DLK1-Fc fusion protein is expressed and purified at 293E cell. The invention confirmed the efficacy as a drug for inhibiting cancer metastasis by confirming markedly reduced migration of cancer cells by DLK1-Fc fusion protein and also computing pharmacokinetic parameters. DLK1-Fc fusion protein has relatively higher stability than non-fusion protein, significantly reduces migration of various cancer cell lines, and provides superior cancer metastasis inhibition effect even at small concentration. Accordingly, DLK1-Fc fusion protein can be used efficaciously as an effective ingredient of a composition for inhibiting cancer metastasis.

Title: Improved continuous centrifugal machine.
Inventor: BANGE JOSEPH BERNARD
IPC: B04B7/04
Filed: 1981-01-21
Abstract: A continuous centrifugal machine of the conical basket type, useful in sugar manufacture for separating crystals from syrup, comprises a conical basket (12) having its shaft (14) driven from a motor (44) via a belt (88) and a pulley (82) that is held in a fixed position on a support shaft (78) and carries a stub shaft (84) connected with the basket shaft (14) by a flexible coupling (86) to enable gyratory motion of the basket assembly against the resistance of buffering assemblies (40). The position of the support shaft (78) is adjustable for alignement of the shafts (14, 84) by an adjustable mounting arrangement (52, 53, 56, 58, 64) which also keeps the pulley (82) constantly aligned with the belt (88) so that the belt will not be subject to variations of moment loads. An annular chambering unit (160) disposed around and beneath the basket (12) is seated on a support ring (36) of the base structure (32, 34, 36). The chambering unit includes a base wall (62), upright partitions (166, 168, 172) and a floor partition (178), which together form a liquid-collecting chamber that leads liquid to an outlet formed by aligned openings (190, 192) in the base wall (62) and support ring (36). The buffering assemblies (40) are joined to the bearing housing (16) of the basket shaft (14) and are joined by supports (63) to the base wall (162), enabling these structures and the basket (12) to be pre-assembled with the chambering unit (160) before being installed on the base structure (32, 34, 36). The liquid outlet (190, 192) leads into a radial liquid outflow tunnel (43) that is disposed over a radial tunnel (41) for the belt (88), thus reducing obstruction of the curb space (28) through which solids discharged from the basket top (170) fall for delivery from the machine.

IPC: C08G73/00
Filed: 1981-01-07
Abstract: Novel copolymers and terpolymers of the amide-imide type are prepared from tricarboxylic acid anhydride compounds, N,N'-diacylated diamines, N-acylated diamines, and primary diamines. These copolymers and terpolymers are useful for preparing injection molded articles of superior properties. A novel process for the manufacture of amide-imide copolymers and terpolymers is disclosed wherein the imide, imide-imide, amide, and amide-amide moieties incorporated into the polymer backbone can be controlled by acylating the amine functionality which is to form the amide and amide-amide moieties while reacting directly those diamines with a tricarboxylic anhydride compound which are intended to form the imide and imide-imide moieties.

Title: Fat emulsion.
Inventor: SEKI JUNZO
IPC: A61K9/14
Filed: 1990-11-26
Abstract: A fat emulsion developed to solve the problems of polyene antifungal antibiotics that they have such a severe toxicity as to limit the administration range thereof by suitably designing the administration form, thereby reducing the hemolytic toxicity and nephrotoxicity and facilitating the migration of a drug toward infected parts without adversely affecting the pharmacological action (antifungal action) on a molecular level. The emulsion comprises 0.005 to 5 % of a polyene antifungal antibiotic, 0.5 to 30 % of a simple lipid, and a phospholipid in an amount 0.15 to 2 times as large as that of the simple lipid, wherein the relative proportion of each ingredient is controlled to give a fine microemulsion of a mean particle diameter of at least 10 nm up to 100 nm. This emulsion can remarkably enhance the efficacy of polyene antifungal antibiotics such as Amphotericin B and is very useful for the development of medicines.

In another embodiment, a hollow fiber device is used in place of the column to achieve cell washing. In one embodiment, a plurality of valves are responsive to a data processor for controlling the path of fluid flow through the particle separator. A plurality of sensors are provided for providing sensor signals indicative of fluid flowing through the cell separator. A peristaltic pump is responsive to the microprocessor assembly for controlling the speed and direction of fluid flow through the system. A stir plate assembly is responsive to a signal from the data processor for controllably agitating the contents of the cell separator.

Date Jan. 18, 1996A particulate material dispensing system suitable for metering seed for individual rows of a seed sowing drill. The seed sowing drill having a container which acts as a seed hopper. Positioned beneath the container is a metering device. Below the metering device are a number of tubes which are seed outlets to which the metering device feeds the seed it receives from the container. A peripheral guide forms part of the metering device. The peripheral guide is a disc of material that defines an aperture. On the inner walls of the guide is a seed track and an outlet. There are a plurality of seed track/outlet combinations, one for each of the outlets. A vertical-axis rotor fits within the aperture of the guide. The rotor rotating within the aperture causes seed falling from the container into the guide to be dragged down and around the inside walls of the guide. The seeds are guided by a seed track to a guide outlet and into the appropriate seed outlet. At the base of the seed track is a flange. The flange enables a column of seed to build up within the seed track providing some independence of the availability of the seed to the rotor from the container. A method of dispensing particulate material is also disclosed.

Patent EP-0830729-A4 (EP)
Inventor: BUTLER JAMES R
IPC: H03F3/45
Filed: 1995-08-31
Abstract: L'invention concerne un amplificateur pôle-à-pôle (10) présentant un étage de sortie (18) de faible complexité assurant un rapport élevé de l'intensité du courant destiné à la charge par rapport à l'intensité du courant réactif à vide. L'amplificateur comporte un premier et un second transistors de sortie ((Q1, Q2) dont les circuits de courant sont connectés en série au niveau de la borne de sortie (20) entre les organes d'alimentation en haute et basse tension. Un transistor de commande (Q3) réagit à une tension d'attaque (Vd) appliquée à sa base en modulant les tensions base-émetteur du premier transistor de sortie et d'un transistor de gain (Q4) en directions opposées de façon à moduler leurs intensités de courant de gain et de sortie respectives. Une source de courant à réaction (55) alimente en courant le transistor de gain en renvoyant le courant de gain dans une boucle à réaction positive (CM1, IS1, 58) vers son émetteur de manière à ce que la source de courant soit au repos avec un faible courant de gain mais soit capable de fournir des intensités de courant de gain bien plus élevées. Un élément de tension (65) réagit au courant de gain en appliquant une tension de commande à la base du second transistor de sortie de façon à ce que les courants de sortie des transistors de sortie soient équilibrés, ce qui assure l'obtention d'un courant de sortie à la borne de sortie.
