Title: Lipid kinase
Inventor: VANHASEBROECK BART
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1997-05-30
Granted: 2006-11-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a novel lipid kinase which is part of the PI3 Kinase family. PI3 Kinases catalyze the addition of phosphate to inositol generating inositol mono, di and triphosphate. Inositol phosphates have been implicated in regulating intracellular signaling cascades resulting in alternations in gene expression which, amongst other effects, can result in cytoskeletal remodeling and modulation of cellular motility. More particularly the invention relates to a novel human PI3 Kinase, p110Delta which interacts with p85, has a broad phosphinositide specificity and is sensitive to the same kinase inhibitors as PI3 Kinase p110A. However, in contrast to previously identified PI3 Kinases which show a ubiquitous pattern of expression, p110Delta is selectively expressed in leucocytes. Importantly, p110Delta shows enhanced expression in most melanomas tested and therefore may play a crucial role in regulating the metastatic property exhibited by melanomas. The identification of agents that enhance or reduce p110Delta activity may therefore prevent cancer metastatis.

Abstract: The invention provides a wet-type sprinkler system by which the water damage caused when a sprinkler heads function in a wrong way with ensuring a quick extinguishing operation at the time of fire. A suction pipe is provided for the system so as to communicate with a top part of a secondary pipeline 24 of a feed pipe arrangement 20 forming a water supply line from a water supply unit 16 to sprinkler heads 12. Further, a suction unit (an electromagnetic valve 54 and a suction pump 50) for sucking the air in the secondary pipeline section 24 from the top part of the secondary pipeline section 24 is provided onto the suction pipe 52. The suction pipe 52, the suction pump 50 and the electromagnetic valve 54 constitute a negative-pressure-securing section. In the secondary pipeline 24, which is filled with water in a normal condition water is negatively pressurized by the suction operation of the suction unit. The negatively pressurized state of the water is ensured under a normal condition. Thus, water in the secondary pipeline is prevented from unnecessarily being discharged when the sprinkler heads 12 function in a wrong way.  <IMAGE>
