Title: Urocortin-iii and uses thereof
Inventor: VALE WYLIE W JR
IPC: A61P43/00
Filed: 2002-03-15
Granted: 2017-01-03
Abstract: A search of the public human genome database identified a human EST, GenBank accession number AW293249, which has high homology to known pufferfish urocortin sequences. The full length sequence was amplified from human genomic DNA and sequenced. Sequence homology comparisons of the novel sequence with human urocortin I and urocortin II revealed that the sequence encoded a novel human urocortin, which was designated urocortin III (UcnIII). While urocortin III does not have high affinity for either CRF-R1 or CRF-R2, the affinity for CRF-R2 is greater than the affinity for CRF-R1. Urocortin III is capable stimulating cyclic AMP production in cells expressing CRF-R2.alpha. or .beta..  Thus, the affinity is high enough that urocortin III could act as a native agonist of CRF-R2. However, it is also likely that urocortin III is a stronger agonist of a yet to be identified receptor.

Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A method for a mobile station and a base station to which the mobile is being handed over, and corresponding apparatuses for use by the mobile and the base station. The method for use by the mobile station is for determining whether dynamic configurations are in use by the base station to which the mobile is being handed over, and the method for use by the base station is for determining whether to use a dynamic configuration (if the base station uses dynamic configurations) or to switch to a static preconfiguration in communicating with the mobile. The base station to which the mobile is being handed over is of one wireless communication system (such as the UTRA wireless communication system) and the base station doing the handing over is of another type (such as GSM). Both base stations are assumed to broadcast control signals on a respective broadcast control channel.

Abstract: A wet electric heating ("WEH") process involves establishing electrode zones ("e-zones") around conductors (e.g., wells) for distributing electric current and thereby generating and distributing heat accordingly through a target region in a subterranean formation having hydrocarbons. The inventive WEH  process takes into account e-zone geometric shape, spacing and/or spatial orientation to provide more diffuse distribution of increased temperature values within the target region, compared to conventional electric heating processes, during at least the first 10% of a time interval when an electric potential is applied. The most significant source of heating for diffuse distribution of increased temperature values in the inventive WEH process arises from electric energy delivered directly to and throughout the target region, namely an electric heating distribution effect, which significantly reduces reliance on thermal conduction and/or fluid convection in distributing heat relatively early in the process of generating heat by electric ohm-heating.
