Patent CA-2452151-A1 (CA)
Inventor: AVCI OKTAY
IPC: A61P17/06
Filed: 2001-07-02
Abstract: This invention concerns the use of cyclopamine in vivo on basal cell carcinomas to achieve therapeutic effect by causing differentiation of the tumor cells and, at the same time, highly efficient apoptotic death and removal of these tumor cells while preserving the normal tissue cells, including the undifferentiated cells of the normal epidermal basal layer and hair follicles. Causation of apoptosis by cyclopamine is by a non-genotoxic mechanism. These effects make the use of cyclopamine highly desirable in the treatment of basal cell carcinomas and other tumors that use the hedgehog/smoothened signal transduction pathway for proliferation and prevention of apoptosis.

Patent CA-2455185-A1 (CA)
Title: Three-point hitch having flotation
Inventor: KRAUS TIMOTHY J
IPC: A01B63/10
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: A three-point hitch suitable for operation with wide implements is constructed by substituting a pair of flotation actuators for the usual drop links that are normally coupled between a pair of rocker arms and a pair of lower draft links. These drop links are coupled to a hydraulic circuit including, according to one embodiment, individual accumulators for each flotation actuator, and according to a second embodiment, both actuators are coupled to a single accumulator. The accumulator(s) act to cause a pre-selected lifting force to be exerted by the flotation actuators so that a predetermined amount of the weight of an implement mounted to the draft links is counterbalanced, leaving a desired ground pressure being exerted by the implement during operation. When using individual accumulators, a side- to- side weight balance can be achieved since different accumulator settings may be used.
