Abstract: A loader-type heavy construction machine has a chassis and work equipment. The work equipment includes two parallel arms articulated relative to the frame, a bucket articulated relative to the arms, a set of link rods forming, with a portion of the bucket and of the arms, a deformable parallelogram, and a bucket actuator capable of being controlled to cause deformation of the deformable parallelogram so as to orient the bucket with respect to the arms. A cam is moved by a connecting bar connected at one end to the deformable parallelogram so that the position of the cam is dependent on the orientation of the bucket with respect to the chassis. The cam interfaces with an hydraulic circuit to ensure that the bucket is maintained in a position preventing it from accidentally tipping over backwards, regardless of commands exerted on an hydraulic manipulator by a driver of the machine.

Abstract: The invention relates to modulators of insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP)/Angiotensin IV receptor (AT4) activity, which have the ability to (a) increase local concentration of a wide range of peptides, thereby enhancing the activity of these peptides; (b) regulate glucose uptake into cells and tissues, thereby altering the metabolic or energy status of the cells or tissues; (c) trigger second messenger or signalling pathways associated with IRAP/AT4 function; and/or (d) increase cell surface expression of IRAP/AT4. The modulators may enhance learning and memory in both normal subjects and those with memory disorders. They also stimulate cellular proliferation while reducing apoptosis, thus stimulating tissue growth development, and affect angiogenesis. Thus they are also useful in tissue repair and regeneration. The invention also relates to methods of identifying modulators of insulin-regulated aminopeptidase activity.

Title: Methods and compositions for the tandem synthesis of two or more oligonuleotides on the same solid support
Inventor: ARAR KHALIL
IPC: C07H21/00
Filed: 2002-12-31
Abstract: The present invention relates to novel methods and novel solid support materials for the tandem synthesis of two or more different oligonucleotides on the same solid support in one synthetic run. The methods involve novel support preparations comprised of two or more types of orthogonally protected anchor groups. Subsequent to the selective removal of the first of the respective protective groups, the first oligonucleotide is assembled on the deblocked anchor groups according to standard methods, preferably via phosphoramidite chemistry. Following the capping of said first oligonucleotide, the anchor groups blocked by the second type of protective group are selectively liberated and serve is the starting point for the assembly of a second oligonucleotide, and so forth. After completion of all of the syntheses on the solid support, the oligonucleotides are released from the solid support and deprotected at the nucleobases, using standard methods. Preparations obtained using the method of this invention, generally contain two or more different oligonucleotides. Such preparations are particularly useful in applications that require pairs of oligonucleotide primers, several probes at a time, duplexed nucleic acid fragments, or other combinations of oligonucleotides that are useful in applications such as PCR, sequencing, multiplexed genotyping, cloning and RNA interference. The invention includes procedures for the preparation of the novel solid supports of the invention.
