Abstract: Spectroscopy data are correlated to physical locations on a sample. A laser beam is scanned along a beam trajectory relative to the sample located in a sample chamber. The laser beam disassociates material from the sample along the beam trajectory to produce an aerosol of the disassociated material within the sample chamber. A fluid is passed through the sample chamber to transport the disassociated material to a spectrometer for determining spectroscopy data values of a selected element along the beam trajectory. The spectroscopy data values are correlated with respective locations of the sample along the beam trajectory, and an image is displayed of at least a portion of the sample including the respective locations along the beam trajectory where the material was disassociated by the laser beam. The image includes indicia of the spectroscopy data values at their correlated locations.

Title: Inhibition de la fibrose pulmonaire par la nutlin-3a et des peptides
Inventor: SHETTY SREERAMA
IPC: A61K31/496
Filed: 2014-03-17
Abstract: Selon l'invention, dans des fibroblastes du poumon fibrotiques, des taux de base de protéine p53 (et miR-34a) sont inhibés de façon marquée, conduisant à une inhibition réduite à médiation par p53 de uPA et uPAR, ou une induction concurrente de PAI-1. Ces modifications contribuent à la prolifération excessive de fibroblastes FL et à la production de matrice extracellulaire (ECM) et, par conséquent, d'une fibrose pulmonaire. Ces procédés sont inversés par le traitement des cellules, et le traitement de sujets souffrant d'une fibrose pulmonaire idiopathique (IPF) par la petite molécule organique nutlin-3a (NTL) ou par un peptide CSP-4 (SEQ ID NO : 1) ou des variants ou dérivés ou multimères de ce peptide, qui augmentent les taux de p53 par l'inhibition de la dégradation à médiation par MDM2 de la protéine p53. L'utilisation de ces composés sert de nouvelle approche au traitement de IPF, puisqu'ils restaurent l'expression de p53 et des modifications à médiation par p53 dans le système fibrinolytique uPA dans des fibroblastes FL et restreignent la production et le dépôt d'ECM.
