Title: Methods of isolating bipotent hepatic progenitor cells
Inventor: REID LOLA M
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 2000-10-03
Abstract: A method of obtaining a mixture of cells enriched in hepatic progenitors is developed which comprises methods yielding suspensions of a mixture of cell types, and selecting those cells that are classical MHC class I antigen(s) negative and ICAM-1 antigen positive. The weak or dull expression of nonclassical MHC class I antigen(s) can be used for further enrichment of hepatic progenitors. Furthermore, the progenitors can be selected to have a level of side scatter a measure of granularity or cytoplasmic droplets, that  is higher than that in non-parenchymal cells, such as hemopoietic cells, and  lower than that in mature parenchymal cells, such as hepatocytes. Furthermor e, the progeny of the isolated progenitors can express alpha-fetoprotein and/or  albumin and/or CK19. The hepatic progenitors, so isolated, can grow clonally , that is an entire population of progeny can be derived from one cell. The clones of progenitors have a growth pattern in culture of piled-up aggregate s or clusters. These methods of isolating the hepatic progenitors are applicab le to any vertebrates including human. The hepatic progenitor cell population i s expected to be useful for cell therapies, for bioartificial livers, for gene  therapies, for vaccine development, and for myriad toxicological, pharmacological, and pharmaceutical programs and investigations.

Title: Simple types in xml schema complex types
Inventor: DUNNE SEAN
IPC: G06F40/143
Filed: 2003-06-17
Abstract: Within the scope of existing XML Schema specifications, an approach is provided to embed simple types within a complex type so an XML stream can have instances of the embedded simple types, even without the presence of XML elements. Because the approach is within the scope of existing XML Schema specifications, the approach is transparent to known XML parsers. With the approach, an XML schema will have a complex type with a mixed flag set to true and an element set to be a dummy element. The dummy element has a simple type and one of (i) a name of the dummy element and (ii) a name of the simple type is one of a predetermined set of names. This XML schema is for use with a parser which, on parsing the schema, will interpret the dummy element as one of an embedded simple type and an inherited simple type.

Title: Apparatus for testing structural component samples by impacting with ice balls
Inventor: PRICE PATRICK THOMAS
IPC: F41B7/00
Filed: 2003-08-01
Abstract: An ice ball launcher simulates the impact of a storm-generated hail stone falling onto a test specimen or structural component exhibit such as a roofing shingle, skylight, automobile panel, aircraft fuselage panel, aircraft wing panel and the like. The launcher includes a tripod base, a rail, a sled, an ice ball holder cup, a manually operable trigger latch assembly, an elastic band and a laser beam-aiming device. The ice ball launcher consistently and repeatably projects ice balls at a predetermined velocity and impact energy onto the component sample. The velocity of each ice ball is measured as it transits from the ice ball launcher to the installation mockup, verifying that the ice ball velocity is within a predetermined velocity tolerance range. The measured velocity and known mass of the ice ball are used to calculate the kinetic impact energy on the component sample material.

Title: Immunoglobulin superfamily variants expressed in mesenchymal cells and therapeutic uses thereof
Inventor: SHAV-TAL YARON
IPC: A61K31/7088
Filed: 2002-02-20
Abstract: Mesenchymal cells are unexpectedly found to express specific truncated versions of immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily members, namely T cell receptors and related proteins of the immunoglobulin superfamily, as exemplified by the .upsilon. heavy chain. Mesenchymal T cell receptor and Ig heavy chain gene products either directly or indirectly control hemopoetic stem cells.  Antisense therapy and antibodies can be used to reduce TCR and Ig heavy chain mediated functions. Conversely, overexpression of the TCR and/or Ig heavy chain can be used to induce hemopoesis, for example in stem cell transplantation or following chemotherapy.

Title: Alpha-galactosidase as food-grade genetic marker
Inventor: MOINEAU SYLVAIN
IPC: C12N15/56
Filed: 2002-04-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a 4007 bp DNA fragment from the strain Lactococcus raffinolactis ATCC 43920 containing two genes. The first gene (named aga) codes for an enzyme with an alpha-galactosidase activity. The second gene (named galR) codes for a transcriptional regulator which would act as a regulator of aga. When present in a lactic acid bacterium such as Lactococcu s lactis, this DNA fragment can modify the sugar fermentation profile of the strain from melibiose-negative to melibiose-positive. The utilisation of a culture media containing melibiose as the sole carbon source and bromcresol purple as pH indicator allows the identification of the melibiose-fermenting bacteria as yellow colonies on a purple background.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de prévenir la fraude dans des appels de service spécial effectués depuis un point d'origine international vers un point de terminaison intérieur, par l'intermédiaire d'un système de télécommunications longue distance. Selon ce système et ce procédé, une base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux est ajoutée à une plate-forme de réseau de services intégrés (ISN). Les dossiers de la base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux sont codés par le code de pays et contiennent un champ destiné aux zones de terminaison bloquées. Lorsqu'un appel international est effectué, le dossier correspondant au point d'origine international est récupéré à partir de la base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux. Ce dossier est vérifié de sorte à déterminer si des zones de terminaison sont indiquées dans le champ d'échanges bloqués. S'il n'y a pas de zones de terminaison indiquées dans ce champ, le traitement de l'appel continue. Si des zones de terminaison sont indiquées dans le champ d'échanges bloqués, ces zones de terminaison sont vérifiées en fonction du point de terminaison de l'appel. Si le point de terminaison de l'appel se situe à l'intérieur de la zone de terminaison, l'appel est bloqué.
