Patent CA-2606292-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZACOUTO FRED
IPC: C12N5/16
Filed: 2006-05-04
Abstract: The invention relates to an epigenetic and genetic treatment method and system. The invention can be used to rejuvenate an adult cell nucleus without passing through an embryonic stage and to obtain a tissue that is genetically-rejuvenated and autologous in relation to the original nucleus, comprising the temporary introduction of a nucleus into an enucleated oocyte (genetic rejuvenation), followed by oocyte extraction prior to cell division. The treated nucleus can then be introduced into an adult cytoplasm originating from the nucleus. In this way, cell divisions from the rejuvenated nucleus take place in an adult autologous cytoplasm and the resulting cells immediately take the form of adult, differentiated and functional cells. The rejuvenated autologous tissue thus created can then be grafted without rejection to the adult tissue of the organism from the treated nucleus.  Throughout the inventive procedure, the treated cytoplasms and nuclei remain permanently in the adult state and no artificial cell differentiation is necessary. In this way, the invention is different from standard deep cloning in which the treated cells must return to the embryonic stage and which involves artificial cell differentiation. In addition, the tissues derived from standard cloning are not immunologically compatible with the original adult tissues from the treated nucleus since the cell division thereof takes place in the oocyte which represents a foreign cytoplasm to the nucleus.  Moreover, standard cloning enables the creation of whole organisms unlike the inventive method and system which can only be used to treat a single tissue.  The possible applications of the invention include, for example, the repair of necrotic tissues, such as a myocardial infarction, and damaged tissues, such as the retina (RMD), heart failure, renal failure, liver failure and osteoporosis, the treatment of cancers that occur with age, such as prostate cancer, rectal cancer, colon cancer, etc. The anodyne implantation of a small volume of autologous, rejuvenated, still-healthy cells from the affected organ should inhibit the aforementioned cancers and the metastases thereof.

Patent CA-2623939-A1 (CA)
Title: Laminated solenoid plunger for solenoid assembly
Inventor: JOHNSON PETER E
IPC: B41K3/02
Filed: 2007-06-13
Abstract: A solenoid plunger for use in solenoid driven multi-line embossing systems is constructed of magnetic steel laminations that are attached to a center block which is machined to mount a solenoid shaft and anti-rotate pins. The laminations are attached to the center block with screws and vacuum epoxy glued for a very high cycle life. The laminated steel construction dramatically reduces eddy currents, which allows the magnetic field to rise and fall much more quickly than a conventional steel plunger. It also increases the magnetic force in the solenoid. This reduction in solenoid plunger eddy currents and increase of magnetic force in the solenoid structure itself operates to increase embosser throughput. The laminated steel construction further reduces embosser solenoid heating which also contributes to improved embossing control.
