Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés pour empêcher l'émergence d'une résistance multiple aux médicaments dans des cellules tumorales pendant une chimiothérapie contre le cancer. En particulier, elle concerne l'utilisation d'inhibiteurs de protéine kinases pour empêcher l'induction de l'expression du gène MDR1 ou gène de résistance multiple aux médicaments utilisés en chimiothérapie codant pour la P-glycoprotéine. On montre ici que l'expression du gène MDR1 qui provoque la résistance des cellules tumorales au traitement par chimiothérapie avec certains agents, est induite en réponse à un traitement par différents agents cytotoxiques, en particulier des agents qui sont ou qui ne sont pas sujets à une évacuation hors des cellules cancéreuses par l'effet de la P-glyocoprotéine. On montre ici que les inhibiteurs des protéines kinases, en particulier de la protéine kinase C suppriment ce comportement des cellules. En plus, on montre que ces inhibiteurs des protéines kinases inhibent l'expression d'un gène codant pour une protéine associée avec la résistance multiple aux médicaments (gène codant pour la protéine MRP). La présente invention concerne des procédés permettant d'utiliser de tels inhibiteurs des protéines kinases pour supprimer l'induction de l'expression du gène MDR1 par des médicaments cytotoxiques et, en même temps, pour inhiber l'expression du gène codant pour la protéine MRP. L'invention concerne également des procédés pour identifier des inhibiteurs des protéines kinases qui ont un effet sur l'expression du gène MDR1 et/ou du gène codant pour la protéine MRP. Ainsi, grâce à l'invention, on dispose de procédés et de composés utiles pour empêcher l'apparition d'une résistance multiple aux médicaments dans des cellules tumorales traitées par chimiothérapie avec des médicaments cytotoxiques chez des patients atteints de cancers, lorsque de tels inhibiteurs des protéines kinases sont administrés aux patients d'une manière concomitante avec le traitement par les médicaments cytotoxiques ou avant ce traitement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a display
apparatus for performing pixel density conversion
processing such as enlargement, reduction, and rotation on
an original image and displaying a resultant image or to an
image processing apparatus and, more particularly, to a
processing apparatus for performing a high-speed filtering
operation such as data interpolation, which is pixel
density conversion processing, and to a memory having
arithmetic function for use in the high-speed filtering
operation. The novel constitution gives a fraction address
including a fraction component of an original image that
generally does not provide integer coordinates and a
semiconductor memory 100 incorporates a memory cell 207 for
holding data corresponding to an integer address,
arithmetic circuits 202 and 203 for performing
interpolation based on the data corresponding to an integer
component of the fraction address read from the memory cell
and the fraction component, and an address range
determining block 216 for determining whether the above-mentioned
given fraction address is in the range of
addresses of the data held in the memory cell in the above-mentioned
semiconductor memory. 
     Because the novel constitution performs 
interpolation inside the LSI, the processing speed can be
increased by four times or more than the prior-art
technology.

Date Feb. 13, 1997In an electromotively driven garden appliance, for example a lawnmower or a lawn-aerator, the on-off switch is usually arranged on the handle-bar such that it can easily be accessed for operation. This on-off switch is connected via a cable to the motor circuit, the cable being guided along one branch of the handle-bar. According to the invention, in order to avoid damage to the cable and resultant unreliable contact-making when the handle-bar is folded down, the cable is replaced by a wireless connection, in particular by infrared radiation, radio or ultrasound. For this purpose, a transmitter is assigned to the electrical on-off switch and a receiver on the chassis is assigned to the motor circuit. The wireless transmission according to the invention can easily be combined with the dead man's switch which is prescribed for garden appliances and can take the form of a proximity switch or touch-contact switch and may be arranged on the handle-bar such that the appliance is switched off when the handle-bar is released.

Abstract: For separating off non-ferrous metals from a stream of particles or separating non-ferrous metal particles from one another on the basis of composition, size, shape or density, by means of eddy currents, use is made of an installation having a rotor which is rotatable about an essentially vertical axis and has a number of magnets distributed over 360°, the north and south poles of said magnets alternating at the circumference, the jacket surface of which rotor, or a guard plate covering said jacket surface, having the shape of an optionally truncated cone. There are means for rotating the rotor and feed means for feeding the stream of particles to the jacket surface of the rotor or said guard plate. Said last-mentioned feed means are so constructed that the particles to be separated impinge on the cone surface along an essentially closed circular strip. During rotation of the rotor a magnetic field is generated which is sufficiently powerful tangentially to repulse the conductive particles, or some of the particles which are to be separated on the basis of composition, size, shape or density, from the rotor surface or guard plate surface, such that a radial separation between the particles is achieved. An exceptionally good separation efficiency is achieved by this means.
