Patent EP-0719282-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HOLMS RUPERT DONALD
IPC: A61K38/16
Filed: 1995-06-02
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide preparations for the treatment or prophylaxis of AIDS and systemic lupus erythematosus and related disorders. The invention is based on the discovery of the process triggered in the immune system by HIV which leads to AIDS. HIV has a specific mechanism to activate the immune system to allow it to replicate and this same immune activation leads to an autoimmune process which eventually leads to AIDS. The preparation for treatment comprises novel synthesized peptides whose amino acid sequences are derived from a human protein called ezrin and are based on the following sequence: NH2ThrGluLysLysArgArgGluThrValGluArgGluLysGluCOOH SEQ ID. No. 2. The mechanism of action of these peptides is that they switch off specific retrovirally induced immune responses by immunological tolerance.

Inventor: CILIBERTO GENNARO
IPC: C12N15/00
Filed: 1995-12-13
Abstract: It is known that the ligands of the group of cytokines similar to Interleuk 6 (IL-6), that is Oncostatin M (OSM), Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF) and Interleukin 11 (IL-11), induce the formation of a receptor complex of which the membrane molecule gp 130 is a part. The present invention refers to a methodology for selecting superagonists, antagonists and superantagonists of human interleukin-6 comprising the following operations: comparing the amino acid sequence of bovine granulocyte colony stimulating factor (bG-CSF) with the sequence of said hormone; and on the basis of the above comparison, formulating a three dimensional model of said hormone, which allows the identification of residues that form the site of interaction with the specific receptor (Site 1) and those that constitute the site of interaction with gp 130 (Site 2) respectively. The invention allows the identification of these sites in human interleukin-6 and the isolation of variants having, with respect to the wild type hormone, a greater affinity for the specific receptor (superagonists and superantagonists) or affinity for gp 130 reduced or abolished (antagonists and superantagonists). A scheme illustrating the methodology applied to identify site 1 and site 2 in the case of human interleukin-6 is disclosed. The invention also describes the obtaining of specific superagonists and superantagonists of interleukin-6 and the use of superantagonists as low dose inhibitors of the growth of human myeloma cells dependent on wild type interleukin-6.

Abstract: The invention relates to a measuring device for the wire-free measurement of temperatures, in particular for the measurement of the body temperature of animals. A transponder is injected as a probe in each animal with the aid of a hollow needle, which is supplied wire-free by a transmitter/receiver and which modulates the interrogation field with two or more abruptly changing tones in a cyclic sequence. 
     The time duration of the tones as well as the frequency of the tones contain the desired information in coded form. 
     By monitoring individually and continuously the body temperature of useful and/or breeding animals in the animal shed or on the pasture, it is possible to detect in time completely automatically the symptoms of an animal becoming ill and appropriate measures can be taken in order to keep the costs as low as possible in the animal husbandry business.

Abstract: Several viewing devices (329, 331) of a panoramic viewing system share a virtual optical center (334). The viewing devices (329, 331) have reflected fields of view from reflective surfaces (336, 334). The reflective surfaces and the actual optical centers of the viewing devices are arranged so that the actual optical centers map to the same virtual optical center (334). Sharing a virtual optical center (334) effectively allows the viewing devices (329, 331) to have fields of view emanating from the same point notwithstanding that the devices are in separate locations. The reflector is shaped like a pyramid and the light beams of the viewing devices intersect inside the pyramidal reflector.

Abstract: A control/supervisory signal transmission/reception system includes a central station (1) and a number of local stations (2) which are interconnected by a common data line (3, D) carrying a three-level voltage signal (Vx) so as to transfer data signals between the central and local stations. Information concerning structures and functions of the local stations (2) is grasped automatically by using frames having ID codes differing from one to another frame, whereby the central station can check occurrence of breakage of the transmission line (3) or shut-down of the local station inclusive of the units to be controlled/supervised associated with the local station. The frame includes a start signal field, a data signal field (Fig. 3A, 3B), a local station ID code field and an end signal field. In the local station, an ID code allocated thereto and a count value indicating data reception/ transmission address are preset (40, 42). When coincidence is detected between the ID code sent from the central station and the ID code preset in the local station, the local station generates an end response (Fig. 3A, 3B). The frames sent out sequentially contain ID codes having values varying sequentially so as to identify the local stations, respectively. When no end response is detected, the central station (1) can decide malfunction of the data signal line (3) or units to be controlled/supervised of the local stations (2) discriminatively on the basis of the ID codes.
