Abstract: The patent describes homo- or hetero-bifunctional derivatives of polyethylene glycol (PEG) obtained by selectively modifying the hydroxyl end groups of commercial PEGs of different molecular weights with reactive bifunctional molecules. The synthesis process comprises steps involving sequential derivatization of PEG terminal hydroxyl groups with a bifunctional compound, purification of the bifunctional PEG obtained and/or protection of its functional groups with possible selective removal of terminal protections. The bifunctional PEGs (biPEG) obtained are usable as carriers and/or stabilizers for substances used for diagnostic, prophylactic and therapeutic purposes, conjugated to the same biocompatible biPEG support.

Abstract: Inflammatory state in a subject is assayed by determining the level of expression of A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) in white blood cells (WBC), e.g. circulating WBCs, from the subject. A high level of expression of A3AR is indicative of an inflammatory state in the subject. This assay can be used for determining whether a patient known to have an inflammatory state should be treated with an A3AR agonist to reduce the inflammatory state. The patient will be so treated only if the level of A3AR in the WBC of the subject is above a predefined threshold, which is about twice the level of A3AR in WBC of healthy subjects. The inflammatory state may particularly be rheumatoid arthritis or uveitis.

Abstract: Video components attributable to ambient lighting in a stream of digital images of a scene (10) illuminated by both ambient and active sources (16, 14) are eliminated in each image frame, leaving only video components attributable to the active source (14). The spectrum of the active source (14) is encompassed by the ambient source (16), and spectral filtering (48) defines a primary channel comprising video components in a primary spectrum encompassing both active and ambient lighting and a secondary channel comprising video components in a secondary spectrum encompassing only ambient lighting. The pixels of the secondary channel are scaled by a factor correlating the spectral reflectances of the primary and secondary spectra (30), and the scaled secondary channel is subtracted from the primary channel to produce an ambient corrected image (32). The pixels of the ambient corrected image are further scaled to compensate for spectral filter bleeding of the active source into the secondary channel (34).
