IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 2007-05-09
Abstract: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major problem in cancer chemotherapy. The best characterized resistance mechanism is the one mediated by the over- expression of drug efflux transporters, permeability-glycoprotein (P-gp), which pump a variety of anticancer drugs out of the cells, resulting in lowered intracellular drug accumulation. A series of flavonoid dimers are developed in this invention, which are linked together by linker groups of various lengths. These flavonoid dimers are found to be efficient P-gp modulators that increase cytotoxicity of anticancer drugs in vitro and dramatically enhance their intracellular drug accumulation. It is found that the flavonoid dimers of this invention is also useful in reducing drug resistance in treating parasitic diseases.

Abstract: For postprocessing spectral values which are based on a first transformation algorithm for Converting the audio Signal into a spectral representation, first a sequence of blocks of the spectral values representing a sequence of blocks of samples of the audio signal are provided. Hereupon, a weighted addition of spectral values of the sequence of blocks of spectral values is performed in order to obtain a sequence of blocks of postprocessed spectral values, wherein the combination is performed such that for calculating a postprocessed spectral value for a frequency band and a time duration a spectral value of the sequence of blocks for the frequency band and the time duration and a spectral value for another frequency band or another time duration are used, wherein the combination is further performed such that such weighting factors are used that the postprocessed spectral values are an approximation to the spectral values as they are obtained by converting the audio signal into a spectral representation using a second transformation algorithm which is different from the first transformation algorithm. The postprocessed spectral values are in particular used for a difference formation within a scalable encoder or for an addition within a scalable decoder, respectively.

Title: Method for producing stretchable sheet
Inventor: ISHIKAWA SHINICHI
IPC: D04H3/147
Filed: 2007-12-07
Abstract: A method of producing a stretchable sheet causes nonwoven fabric (3) to have a large amount of extension (elongation) to produce a stretchable sheet (3a) that stretches a large amount. The method produces a stretchable sheet (3a) from the nonwoven fabric (3) having a longitudinal direction, lateral direction, and a thickness direction and containing multiple kinds of fibers. The method has a first extension step and a second extension step. The first extension step extends the nonwoven fabric (3) in the longitudinal direction by applying tension in the longitudinal direction to the nonwoven fabric (3). The second extension step causes the nonwoven fabric (3), extended by the first extension step, to pass through a gap between a pair of rotating gear rolls (41, 43) while allowing teeth (41t, 43t), which are formed on the outer circumferential surfaces (41a, 43a) of the gear rolls (41, 43), to mesh with each other, and thus the nonwoven fabric (3) is extended in the longitudinal direction by the teeth (41t, 43t).

Abstract: Intermediate results are passed between constituent instructions of an expanded instruction using register renaming resources and control logic. A first constituent instruction generates intermediate results and is assigned a PRN in a constituent instruction rename table, and writes intermediate results to the identified physical register. A second constituent instruction performs a look up in the constituent instruction rename table and reads the intermediate results from the physical register. Constituent instruction rename logic tracks the constituent instructions through the pipeline, and delete the constituent instruction rename table entry and returns the PRN to a free list when the second constituent instruction has read the intermediate results.
