Title: Virus herpes simplex de type 1 synthetiques pour le traitement de cancers
Inventor: KOUSOULAS KONSTANTIN G

Granted: 2016-08-23
Abstract: L'invention concerne la construction d'un virus herpès simplex de type 1 synthétiques (HSV-1) qui transporte une suppression d'un des deux gènes viraux g1 34.5 et d'autres gènes précoces immédiats, qui rend le virus capable de se répliquer de manière sélective dans des cellules cancéreuses mais pas de se répliquer de manière efficace dans des cellules normales, et dans lesquelles des mutations spécifiques ont été introduites pour permettre au virus de se disperser parmi des cellules cancéreuses par fusion induite par un virus. De manière spécifique, des mutations syncytiales ont été introduites dans les gènes codant pour la glycoprotéine B et la glycoprotéine K du virus, en permettant la réplication et la diffusion élevées du virus dans des cellules cancéreuses en présence de quantités sensiblement inférieures de la protéine g1 34.5, ce qui est exigé pour une fusion cellulaire infectieuse optimale produite par virus et induite par virus. On pourrait également introduire d'autres mutations syncytiales connues, qui rendraient le virus capable de provoquer une fusion cellulaire extérieure induite par virus. En outre, d'autres mutations connues peuvent être introduites pour limiter la diffusion du virus au système nerveux. Ces virus modifiés ou les chromosomes bactériens isolés pourraient être utilisés pour traiter divers cancers incluant ceux du sein, du foie, du côlon, et d'autres tissus.

Abstract: A sensor for monitoring and testing for both possible fractures and corrosion in structural elements is disclosed. A frangible material layer including a thin breakable conductor sense loop and a resilient material layer including a conductive corrosion sense loop bonded on top of the frangible layer form an assembly which is bonded to a structural element to be tested. Portions of the conductive corrosion sense loop are exposed through weep holes in the resilient material layer.  A fracture in the bonded structural element induces a disruption in both the frangible membrane and the thin breakable conductor sense loop and corrosion of the conductive corrosion sense loop changes its electrical properties. Measured electrical property changes of the disrupted conductor sense loop and/or the conductive corrosion sense loop reveal possible damage. Both sensor layers may utilize a single shared wireless communications tag to couple to an electrical measuring device.
