Abstract: Compounds and methods for blocking the effects of diabetes-associated peptide, or ''amylin'', a hormone found in the amyloid masses of Type 2 diabetics. Also disclosed are methods of identifying additional compounds having utility for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. This putative hormone has been discovered to function both to inhibit insulin secretion and to inhibit glycogen synthesis. Regulation is accomplished by blocking the binding of amylin or amylin agonists, including calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP), or biologically active sub-peptides thereof. Inhibitors include substituted peptides or sub-peptides of amylin or CGRP, cross-linked amylin and amylin agonists, synthetic amylin, anti-amylin receptor antibodies and anti-idiotype antibodies, and antibodies directed to amylin and amylin agonist active sites. Other antagonists include organic compounds which can be screened and assayed for anti-amylin effects by disclosed methods.

Abstract: According to a method of balancing a container (10) which is rotating about an essentially horizontal axis, preferably a washing machine drum, the container is provided with cavities (15) evenly distributed along the periphery thereof and having openings (20) via which selectively liquid can be introduced in the respective cavity. A sensor (24) is provided for sensing vibrations caused by the rotation of the container and for emitting an electrical signal the magnitude of which is a measure of the magnitude of the vibrations. The container (10) is brought to rotate at a first rotational speed and the sensor signal is read. A predetermined amount of liquid is introduced in a randomly selected cavity (15) along the periphery of the drum. The sensor signal is again read and the value is compared with the preceding sensed value, wherein if the value is lower than the preceding one a new dose of the predetermined amount is introduced in the selected cavity while if the value is equal to or greater than the preceding one the predetermined amount is introduced in the immediate following cavity along the periphery. The described sequence is repeated until the sensor signal is lower than a predetermined, permissible value at which the container is brought to rotate at a second rotational speed, higher than the first one. The sequence described is repeated for different rotational speeds until the desired rotational speed has been reached and the sensor signal is lower than the predetermined value.

Abstract: Secretion of IgA1 proteases is a characteristic of Haemophilus influenzae and several other bacterial pathogens causing infectious diseases, including meningitis. Indirect evidence suggests that the proteases are important virulence factors. The iga gene encoding IgA1 protease, especially that from H. influenzae serotype b, has been cloned into Escherichia coli in which the recombinant iga gene was expressed and the resulting protease secreted. Sequencing a part of a 7.5 kb DNA fragment containing the iga gene revealed a large open reading frame (ORF) with a strongly biased codon usage and having the potential of encoding a protein of 1541 amino acids and a molecular mass of 169 kd. Putative promoter and terminator elements flanking the ORF have been identified. Comparing the deduced amino acid sequence of the produced H. influenzae IgA1 protease with that of a similar protease from Neisseria gonorrhoeae reveals several domains with a high degree of homology. Analogous to mechanisms known from the N. gonorrhoeae IgA protease secretion, there is proposed a scheme of post-translational modifications of the H. influenzae IgA1 protease precursor leading to a secreted protease with a molecular mass of 108 kd which is close to the Mr 100 kd estimated for the mature IgA1 protease.

Abstract: In many applications, it is important to measure and display payload weight for a loader vehicle. The subject apparatus and method senses only the hydraulic pressure of a lift cylinder (14). The payload weight (26) is computed by curve fitting the sensed cylinder pressure (21) to a second order time dependent polynomial and comparing the time dependent polynomial to one of a series of predetermined second order geometric polynomials. The weight computation algorithms used in the payload monitor are applicable to a number of work vehicles having at least one work implement linkage and at least one hydraulic cylinder for modifying the linkage geometry.

Abstract: For receiving and forwarding message cells transmitted according to an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) by an ATM switching equipment which comprises a multi-stage reversing switching matrix network, each of the message cells has a routing information block having a plurality of routing information corresponding in number of the plurality of switching matrix stages to be traversed located in front thereof within the ATM switching equipment and the routing information just evaluated for the forwarding of a message cell through one of the switching matrix stages is subsequently displaced to the end of the respective routing information block. It is thereby provided that each of the routing information of the routing information block has a separate security information attached thereto and the security information is falsified, together with the displacement of a routing information to the end of the respective routing information block. A message cell is thereby only forwarded via a switching matrix stage when the routing information to be evaluated for that purpose has been recognized as being free of error on the basis of the attached security information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an outlet device for washbasins or similar, having a valve upper part (5), which is to be mounted above the washbasin and is closable by means of a valve stopper (7), and a substantially pot-shaped valve lower part (1), which is assigned to the valve upper part (5) and is to be mounted on the underside of the washbasin and which has a laterally branching connection piece in which is mounted the ball of an eccentric rod (9), upon whose actuation the valve stopper (7) can lift. According to the invention, the outlet device is characterised in that the cylindrical pipe socket (13) of the valve lower part (1) receives a cylindrical part (17a) of a plastic insert (17) and the cylindrical pipe socket (13) has, on one side in the pipe wall, a downwardly open aperture (21), through which a bearing bush (3), moulded laterally on the plastic insert (17), for supporting the ball (10) of the eccentric rod (9), extends radially outwards. Since the surface working of the laterally moulded-on bearing bush (3) can be dispensed with, the manufacture of the pot-shaped valve lower part (1) is considerably more efficient. <IMAGE>
