Title: Activated protein c variants with normal cytoprotective activity but reduced anticoagulant activity
Inventor: GALE ANDREW J
IPC: C12P21/02
Filed: 2004-07-08
Abstract: Variants (mutants) of recombinant activated protein C (APC) or recombinant protein C (prodrug, capable of being converted to APC) that have substantial reductions in anticoagulant activity but that retain normal levels of anti-apoptotic activity are provided. Two examples of such recombinant APC mutants are 3K3A-APC and 229/230-APC. APC variants and prodrugs of the invention have the desirable property of being cytoprotective (anti-apoptotic effects), while having significantly reduced risk of bleeding. The invention also provides a method of using the APC variants or prodrugs of the invention to treat subjects who will benefit from APC's cytoprotective activities that are independent of APC's anticoagulant activity. These subjects include patients at risk of damage to blood vessels or tissue in various organs caused, at least in part, by apoptosis. At risk patients include, for example, those suffering (severe) sepsis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, ischemic stroke, acute myocardial infarction, acute or chronic neurodegenerative diseases, or those undergoing organ transplantation or chemotherapy, among other conditions.  Methods of screening for variants of recombinant protein C or APC that are useful in accordance with the invention are also provided.

Title: A shelf assembly for a refrigerator compartment
Inventor: DALEY HOWARD
IPC: A47B96/02
Filed: 2006-01-04
Abstract: A sliding or vertically step-adjustable shelf includes a panel of tempered glass and two open frames. A peripheral edge of the glass panel is sandwiched between the two open frames and the latter are staked together. Alternatively, a pair of metal shelf brackets can be staked to the frames to provide vertical step-adjustment of the shelf. The vertically step-adjustable shelf can be further simplified by eliminating one of the open frame members and staking the metal shelf brackets to side frame portions of but a single outer/uppermost open frame member. In each of the shelves various components utilized in the assembly thereof, such as stake projections, heads and openings are hidden from view when the shelves are in their horizontal in-use position. Hence, each shelf presents a highly desirable aesthetic appearance, yet is strong and can be manufactured and sold at a reasonable price.

IPC: H01B13/00

Abstract: Vacuum allows free passage of electric current. An electric wire is designed to take advantage of free passage of electric current in vacuum, and to maintain its capacity and strength.   The new electric wire consists of hollow vacuum sections and solid nodes. The function equation works as follows: resistance reduced, current increased, watts transmitted greater than that of solid wire with the same diameter, length, and materials at a given time in a given environment. To make the new electric wire a special device is designed. A pin in the center of the device is up and down controlled by an electromagnet. When the pin is up, solid node is made. And when the pin is down, hollow vacuum section is then formed.   The new electric wire can be made up to any rational order of specification. Benefits of the invention include: a. Electricity transmitted, at a given time and voltage, increased, because of free passage of electric current in vacuum sections. b. Environmental friendly, less heat, less radiation, and less noise, due to reduced resistance.   c. Power lost in heat in transmission reduced. d. Less cost, because of lighter weight, savings in materials used to make, in transportation, and in supporting materials. e. Last longer, because of less heat in use. f. As a result of the above benefits, overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness is enhanced. A lower voltage can be used to perform same level of function of solid wire at a higher voltage. Resistance occurs only at nodes of the new electric wire. g. Application in circuit, from a solid node to load and then back to the solid node through adjacent hollow vacuum section in either sides. In the circuit between load and the solid node the new electric wire can be used to provide the opportunity for more branch circuits in between.   A system of circuit can be designed as practical application required. h. Products of this invention can include filament or other wires made of any materials in any forms or shapes for any uses or purposes, as long as wires or products consist of hollow vacuum sections.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of preparing and coating a large structure such as a ship's hull while in a dry dock wherein a plurality of spray guns disposed in an array are positioned by a robotic arm in a spaced relationship along the surface to be treated so that their spray patterns overlap. The array of spray guns is traversed downwardly a thus painting a strip whereupon the spray guns are secured, move horizontally and then activated to be moved upwardly until another strip adjacent to and overlapping the first strip is painted. These steps are repeated until the surface area is substantially entirely painted. A  shroud is provided for collecting paint oversprays and other excess paint is mounted in the array assemblage. An auxiliary spray gun may be positioned and its spray pattern adjusted to apply paint to areas which were missed by the original spray pattern emanating from the array of spray guns. Travel of the system along the work surface is accomplished by a reference track, which may be virtual or actual along which an unmanned platform travels. An articulated computer controlled arm is carried by the unmanned platform which in turn carries the assemblage. Other tools may be selectively operatively connected to the arm for cleaning the hull before a coating is applied thereto.
