Abstract: The present invention pertains to compositions and methods for plasmid-mediated supplementation. The compositions and methods are useful for treatment or prevention of kidney failure, treatment of anemia, and other conditions commonly associated with kidney failure in order to increase survival and improve welfare in subjects with chronic renal failure. Overall, the embodiments of the invention can be accomplished by delivering an isolated nucleic acid expression construct that encodes a GHRH or functional biological equivalent thereof into a tissue of a subject and allowing expression of the encoded gene in the animal. For example, when such a nucleic acid sequence is delivered into the specific cells of the subject, tissue specific constitutive expression is achieved. The embodiments of the invention also encompass delivery of a recombinant GHRH polypeptide or functional biological equivalent thereof. The preferred method for delivering the constitutive or inducible nucleic acid encoding sequences of GHRH or the functional biological equivalents thereof is directly into the cells of the subject by the process of in vivo electroporation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing measurements on a bit-rate provided to scheduled data having a guaranteed bit-rate and being transmitted on at least one dedicated uplink data channel by at least user equipment via a C-RNC. Further, the invention also relates to a method for initiating congestion control for scheduled data of at least one guaranteed bit-rate priority class in a mobile communication system.  Moreover, the invention relates to a C-RNC as well as a serving radio network controller performing these methods. To enable the C-RNC within a mobile communication system to perform congestion control for uplink transmissions having a guaranteed bit-rate the invention suggests to provide the C-RNC with a bit-rate being provided to scheduled data of the guaranteed bit-rate priority class using common or dedicated measurement procedures. This provided bit-rate is evaluated and taken as a basis for deciding on whether congestion control for data of the priority class needs to be performed.
