IPC: A61K35/14
Filed: 2001-10-12
Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés servant à induire la tolérance chez un récepteur à un greffon mal adapté d'un organe, d'un tissu et/ou de cellules. La réactivation du thymus du récepteur et la greffe de cellules souches hématopoïétiques provenant du donneur permet au greffon préalablement "étranger" d'être reconnu en tant que "soi" chez le récepteur et de ne pas être rejeté. La population de lymphocytes T du patient est appauvrie. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, les cellules souches hématopoïétiques sont CD34+. Le thymus du récepteur est réactivé par interruption de la signalisation vers le thymus dans laquelle les stéroïdes sexuels jouent un rôle de médiateur. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, cette interruption est créée par administration d'agonistes de LHRH, d'antagonistes de LHRH, d'anticorps anti-récepteurs de LHRH, de vaccins anti-LHRH ou de leurs combinaisons.

Patent CA-2467779-A1 (CA)
Title: Cordless soldering iron
Inventor: AXINTE GRIGORE
IPC: B23K3/02
Filed: 2001-12-14
Abstract: A soldering iron comprises a graphite tip having two separate halves (9, 10) that are electrically isolated from each other. When both halves of the tip are applied to an electrically conductive material, such as the material to be soldered, an electrical circuit between the tip halves (9, 10) and an electrical power source (8) is completed. Therefore, the tip can reach operating temperatures quickly. When the tip is removed from the joint, the electric circuit is broken and the tip material may quickly cool to a safe temperature. The tip material permits higher power outputs than other battery operated portable soldering irons.

Patent CA-2475553-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BECK JAMES JOSEPH
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2003-03-27
Abstract: Primers specific for races of pathogenic fungi which are resistant to certain fungicides are used in polymerase chain reaction assays for the detection of fungal pathogens. The use of these primers enables the detection of specific isolates of fungal pathogens and the monitoring of disease development in plant populations. The invention includes DNA sequences which show variability between different fungal pathotypes. Such DNA sequences are useful in the method of the invention as they can be used to derive primers for use in polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based diagnostic assays. These primers generate unique fragments in PCR reactions in which the DNA template is provided by specific fungal pathotypes and can thus be used to identify the presence or absence of specific pathotypes in host plant material before the onset of disease symptoms.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés de modulation d'une réponse immunitaire comprenant la mise en contact d'une cellule avec un agent qui module la signalisation médiée par les molécules BTF4 ou B7-L1. Des signalisations médiées par les molécules BTF4 et B7-L1 peuvent être augmentées, pour réduire la réponse immunitaire, ou diminuée, pour améliorer la réponse immunitaire. La modulation peut être soit une activation soit une inhibition, et la mise en contact peut se produire in vivo ou in vitro. Les performances dudit procédé in vivo sont également potentiellement thérapeutiques pour un individu pouvant bénéficier de l'augmentation ou de la réduction de la réponse immunitaire. Ladite modulation servant à réduire la réponse immunitaire est utilisée en tant qu'agent thérapeutique, par exemple pour un individu ayant subi une transplantation d'organes ou qui présente un état pathologique tel qu'une allergie ou un trouble autoimmun. En variante, la modulation servant à augmenter la réponse immunitaire est utilisée en tant qu'agent thérapeutique pour un individu, par exemple un individu présentant un état pathologique tel qu'un trouble immunodépresseur ou une tumeur. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'identification d'un agent qui module la signalisation des molécules BTF4 ou la signalisation des molécules B7-L1.

IPC: H04L12/935
Filed: 2003-08-06
Abstract: In a packet switch, a switch request allocation plan is generated by reducing the number of queue requests VOQ relating to each of one or both sets of ports I1 .IN, O1 .ON, by a value such that the number of requests relating to each member of the set or sets of ports is no greater than the number of requests (frame value F) that can be handled by the switch (10). This reduction may be individually done for each queue. Alternatively all queues relating to a given port, or to any port, may have their length reduced by a single value determined by the size of the longest queue. A further stage may then apply other allocation rules to allocate requests remaining unallocated by the previous stage.
