Abstract: Thrombin is now known to mediate a number of potent biological effects on cells bearing high-affinity thrombin receptors. These effects depend, at least in part, upon receptor occupancy signals generated by thrombin's interaction with the high affinity thrombin receptor. The present inventors have formulated synthetic thrombin derivatives capable of selectively stimulating or inhibiting thrombin receptor occupancy signals. The stimulatory thrombin derivatives to bind to cell surface thrombin receptors and stimulate DNA synthesis in cells treated with non-mitogenic concentrations of alpha-thrombin or phorbol myristate acetate. Thus, these peptides, which have both a thrombin receptor binding domain and a segment of amino acids with a sequence common to a number of serine proteases, appear to generate receptor-occupancy dependent mitogenic signals. The inhibitory derivatives, which have no serine esterase conserved amino acid sequences bind to thrombin receptors without generating receptor-occupancy dependent mitogenic signals. This invention describes the peptides and methods for using them to promote cell growth and wound healing or to inhibit scar formation, tissue adhesions, and tumor metastasis and angiogenesis.

Thereafter, the data in the first data buffer (25a) is written in the memory (26). In order to check whether the data has been written in the memory (26) correctly, the written data is read out of the memory (26). In the event that a write error is detected in the checking operation, the old data of memory (26) will have been preserved in the second data buffer (25b), thereby enabling recovery of the old data.

Title: Call registering keyboard and display device on the floors for lifts
IPC: B66B3/02
Filed: 1988-09-27
Granted: 1992-11-19
Abstract: With this call-registering keyboard and display device, calls for desired floors can be input without a registering key having to be pressed after a correct input or without a correction key having to be pressed after an incorrect input. Here, a call input is only possible when a proximity switch (28) connected to the keyboard (20) is activated. Upon deactivation of the proximity switch (28), a delay circuit (31) causes the call to be automatically registered. An incorrectly input call is automatically cancelled by means of a second control circuit (61), in which case a second display element (60) in the form of a double question mark lights up at the same time. A third display element arranged in the same display field and signalling the selected lift as well as a fourth and fifth display element signalling the position of the selected lift relative to the actuated keyboard (20) are connected to a group control device via further control circuits. During the call assignment the third and the relevant fourth or fifth display elements are activated, which then light up together with a first display element signalling the selected floor and already activated during the call input.

Title: Apparatus and method for effecting chemical reactions
IPC: C02F11/08
Filed: 1988-03-09
Granted: 1992-07-08
Abstract: A reaction apparatus (20) having an externalized heat exchange mechanism by which heat may be added to or withdrawn from a reactant mixture. In one aspect, a cased well (24) extends into the earth in which at least one reaction vessel (50) is suspended from a support plate (40) at substantially ground level surface (22). The reaction vessel comprises an outer closed-end tube (55) in which an inner open-end tube (60) is disposed in a concentric manner to define an annulus (70) which is in flow communication with the bore of the inner tube. Substantially parallel to the reaction vessel and also suspended from the ground level support plate, is a conduit (45) which extends into the chamber defined by the well-casing. A mixture of reactants is injected into the annulus of the reaction vessel to form a hydrostatic column which exerts substantial fluid pressure at a reaction zone in the lower part of the reaction vessel. A heat-transfer medium is heated to an elevated temperature and then flowed through the conduit into the chamber (30) where the hot heat-transfer medium envelops the reaction vessel. Heat is transferred from the heat-transfer medium to the reactant mixture through the wall of the outer closed-end tube. In the case of an exothermic reaction, when the temperature of the reactants reaches a selected level, the reaction process gives off heat which is withdrawn by the heat exchange medium. As the reactants form reaction products, the reaction products are flowed from the annulus through the bore (65) of the inner tube back up to ground surface level. In another aspect more than one reaction vessel is suspended in a single chamber in a single subterranean shaft. In still another aspect each reaction vessel comprises an inner open-end tube concentrically arranged inside a larger intermediate closed-end tube which is then surrounded by a larger tube to form a heat exchange annulus. Also suspended in the chamber with the reaction vessel is a conduit through which heat-transfer medium is pumped into the chamber during operation. The chamber is partitioned into an upper portion and a lower portion by packing assemblies or by pressurizing the upper portion with an inert gas. As heat-transfer medium flows into the chamber it is confined to the lower portion of the chamber and forced upwardly through the heat exchange annulus which is in heat-transfer relation to a hydrostatic column of reaction products in the inner reaction vessel annulus.

Title: Fuel dispenser with a device for controlling the gas content
IPC: B67D7/04
Filed: 1989-08-31
Granted: 1992-12-23
Abstract: When a hydrocarbon liquid is pumped (11) for retail delivery, it is degassed by means of a vortex device (13). A control valve (21) shuts off delivery if the gas content in the degassed liquid being delivered via a main duct (16) is too high. Unlike prior systems which sense gas content only in the liquid being delivered, the present invention senses the greater gas content in the recycled gas-enriched fraction from the vortex separator device (13). This is done by means of a venturi system (19) controlling a servo-valve (25) which in turn controls the control valve (21). By using a magnified image of the gas content, the system is made more sensitive and more reliable.
