Patent CA-2549909-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BROWN WATSON F
IPC: D02G3/00
Filed: 2004-11-02
Abstract: A three-ply product includes a particleboard core assembled with a patterned vulcanized fibre sheet or layer on each surface. One of the vulcanized fibre sheets may have a preprinted decorative pattern provided thereon. The other vulcanized fibre sheet may also be decorative, or merely a plain sheet of vulcanized fibre. The product is useful for woodworking applications, and may be processed (i.e., stained, sanded, lacquered, etc.) like a natural wood product. Unlike prior vulcanized fibre processes, the process of making the vulcanized fibre sheets preprints a pattern, in a preprinting process, on the top sheets of cellulose paper plies.

Title: Rna interference mediated inhibition of gene expression using multifunctional short interfering nucleic acid (multifunctional sina)
Inventor: JADHAV VASANT
IPC: C12P19/34
Filed: 2005-02-09
Abstract: [00101] The present invention concerns methods and nucleic acid based reagents useful in modulating gene expression in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, veterinary, agricultural, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications. Specifically, the invention relates to multifunctional short interfering nucleic acid (multifunctional siNA) molecules that modulate the expression of one or more genes in a biologic system, such as a cell, tissue, or organism via RNA interference (RNAi). The bifuntional short interfering nucleic acid (multifunctional siNA) molecules of the invention can target more than one regions of nucleic acid sequence in a single target nucleic acid molecule or can target regions of nucleic acid sequence in differing target nucleic acid molecules. The self multifunctional siNA molecules are useful in the treatment of any disease or condition that responds to modulation of gene expression or activity in a cell, tissue, or organism.

Patent CA-2563088-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HICKINGBOTHAM DYSON W
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 2005-08-16
Abstract: A syringe-like device having a chamber in which a pressurizing piston reciprocates. The chamber is connected on one end to a vial containing a drug to be delivered to any eye and on the other end to a needle or cannula for administrering the drug to an eye. Pulling proximally backwards on the piston creates a vacuum in the chamber and draws the drug out of the vial. Upon release of the piston, a spring pushes the piston forward, pressurizing the chamber and forcing the drug out of the cannula. A one-way valve prevents the drug from being expelled back into the vial. A pinch valve between the chamber and the cannula allows the flow of the drug out of the cannula to be stopped.  The flow rate of the drug out of the cannula can be controlled by varying the size of the chamber, piston and spring.

Title: Synergistic effect of tgf-beta blockade and immunogenic agents on tumors
Inventor: TERABE MASAKI
IPC: C07K14/025
Filed: 2006-02-16
Abstract: Methods are provided herein for synergistically affecting tumor growth in a subject, involving the administration to the subject of an agent that blocks the TGF- .beta. signaling pathway in combination with an immunogenic agent.  The agent that blocks the TGF-.beta. signaling pathway is believed to inhibit the immunosuppressive effects of TGF-.beta., while the immunogenic agent is believed to enhance an immune response. Surprisingly, the combination of such elements produces a synergistic effect. In one embodiment, the administration of the IDl 1.16 anti-TGF-.beta. antibody in combination with the human papilloma virus E7(49-57) peptide enhances tumor regression and tumor-specific CTL response in the subject. In another embodiment, the administration of the IDl 1.16 anti-TGF-.beta. antibody in combination with irradiated CT26 cells enhances tumor regression in the subject. The method of administering the combination of agents to the subject is more effective than the administration of each agent individually, or the sum of their individual effects.
