Abstract: Procédés et compositions dans lesquels on utilise des cellules dendritiques humaines pour produire des réponses immunothérapeutiques contre le cancer primitif ou métastatique de la prostate. Dans une forme d'exécution, on administre à un patient atteint du cancer de la prostate des cellules dendritiques humaines après qu'elles aient été exposées à un antigène du cancer de la prostate ou à un peptide antigénique spécifique pour activer in vivo les réponses de cellules T appropriées. Dans une autre forme d'exécution, on expose in vitro les cellules dendritiques à un antigène du cancer de la prostate ou à un peptide antigénique spécifique et on les met en incubation ou en culture avec des cellules T sensibilisées ou non pour activer in vitro les réponses des cellules T appropriées. On administre ensuite les cellules T activées à un patient atteint du cancer de la prostate. Cette invention concerne également des procédés et des compositions destinés à des cellules dendritiques humaines possédant une durée de vie prolongée et à des cellules dendritiques conservées par cryogénie.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for manufacturing prefilled syringes where at least one of the syringe components is manufactured in at least a class 100 environment. The process includes the steps of manufacturing syringe components, such as the barrel and plunger substrate, within at least a class 100 and MCB-3 environment; manufacturing syringe components, such as the plunger cover and tip seal in an environment less clean than a class 100 environment; decontaminating the plunger cover and tip seal; lubricating at least one of the barrel, plunger substrate, plunger cover and tip seal; assembling the barrel and tip seal to form a barrel/tip seal combination; assembling the plunger cover and plunger substrate to form a plunger; filling the barrel/tip seal combination with a predetermined amount of fluid; and final assembling of the prefilled syringe by inserting the plunger into the barrel/tip seal combination. When the syringe components are manufactured at different locations, each component is tripled-bagged to maintain the component substantially free from contaminants, and transported to an assembly site where the components are unpackaged and assembled into the barrel/tip seal combination and plunger. When filling and final assembly of the barrel/tip seal combination takes place at a location separate from its assembly site, the barrel/tip seal combination is tripled-bagged to maintain it substantially free from contaminants, and transported to a filling and final assembling site for filling and final assembling into a prefilled syringe.

Abstract: The vehicle alternator has a wound rotor (4) and a multi-phase stator (5) connected to the bridge circuit (2) made up of diodes (6) and semiconductor switches (7). The switches are controlled by a controller (3). Preferably the diodes are integrated with a MOSFET switch. In the generator mode the switches short-circuit the diodes, with operation of the switches synchronised to change of state of the diodes. Synchronisation is based on measurement of currents or back emf in different phases of the stator. In addition the angular position of the rotor is measured. In the motor mode for starting of the vehicle's internal combustion engine, the number of revolutions of the rotor in a set time window is counted to determine reversion to generator mode.

Abstract: The invention concerns a variable drive with protection against jamming for movable parts, such as in particular windows and sliding roofs in motor vehicles. According to the invention, the number of revolutions or speed of the drive is reduced in given adjusting ranges (x2-x1) in order to satisfy a predetermined spring rate for reducing the kinematic energy. Within the predetermined range, before the "closed" position (x0) is reached, the number of revolutions (n) and/or the power (P) of the drive is/are reduced in linear manner. The reduction to a minimum number of revolutions (nmin) and/or minimum power (Pmin) is effected within a given position range (10). The minimum number of revolutions and/or minimum power is/are reached at a given position (x3) before the "closed" position (x0) and is/are substantially constant. In accordance with the different supply power (Pmax, P2, P1), a linear reduction, for example, is effected along straight lines (12, 13, 14) of different inclination, the position range in which the reduction occurs being of constant length.
