Title: Human prostate cancer cell factor(s) that induce stem cell commitment and osteogenesis
Inventor: HALL CHRISTOPHER L
IPC: C12P21/00
Filed: 2004-10-01
Abstract: Human prostate cancer (CaP) cells secrete biological activities that recruit cells to differentiate into the osteoblast lineage. Conditioned medium (CM) produced by metastatic human CaP cells (DuCaP and VCaP) induced commitment and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into osteoblasts. CaP-CM  induces cellular condensation into tissue-like aggregates. In turn, these tissue-like aggregates secrete and mineralize a bone matrix, forming bone outside the body (ex vivo). Thus, conditioned media and/or proteins isolated therefrom may be used to facilitate bone formation in fracture repair and bone diseases.

Title: Implantable heart valve prosthetic devices having intrinsically conductive polymers
Inventor: GROSS JEFFREY M
IPC: A61L27/54
Filed: 2004-11-17
Abstract: A heart valve sewing prosthesis including an intrinsically conductive polymer.  The invention includes annuloplasty rings and bands, and sewing rings or cuffs for prosthetic heart valves. Some annuloplasty rings and sewing rings include fabric that is coated with an intrinsically conductive polymer. The coating can be formed over individual filaments or fibers, or on the fabric surface as a surface layer. One intrinsically conductive polymer is polypyrrole. The intrinsically conductive polymer can be doped to facilitate the intrinsic conductivity. Some devices have a polypyrrole surface layer doped with dialkyl-napthalene sulfonate. The intrinsically conductive polymer can be deposited on a fabric using in-situ polymerization of monomeric or oligomeric species, together with a dopant. Animal studies using implanted annuloplasty rings having an intrinsically conductive polymer coating have demonstrated a substantial reduction in pannus formation and inflammatory response.

Patent CA-2567233-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YOULE GORDON
IPC: H04B10/08
Filed: 2006-11-07
Abstract: A system and method for remotely detecting and reporting faults in optical fibers is provided. Using a device similar to an Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR), breaks or sharp bends in an optical fiber can be detected, and the location of such events precisely determined, based on the time required for an optical pulse to travel from the device to the bend or break, and back to the device again. The location of reflections caused by breaks or poor connections may be identified, as well as the locations of attenuating events due to bends or other losses in the fiber. Unlike a conventional OTDR, the location of the event can be transmitted to a technician or central office via a radio link, allowing real-time reporting of the operational status of a fiber. Large numbers of fibers may be continuously monitored in real-time by permanently installing such monitoring systems in a network. The location of events may be determined in active communication fibers, or in passive fiber sensors used for monitoring of large-scale structures.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an algorithm for genetic cross-matching based on the comparison of recipient and donor genotypes - and the underlying combinations of alleles and haplotypes. The method of the invention, rather than focusing on phenotype prediction, instead relies on a comparison of genetic variants identified in the recipient and available donors, whose information preferably will be compiled in a widely available donor registry, to maximize molecular compatibility. The genotypes can be matched based on the weighted clinical significance of a genotypic difference between donor and recipient, such that certain mismatches are more acceptable than others.

Abstract: Methods for choosing groups for a static Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol to inhibit active attacks by an adversary are provided. In mod p groups, an even h is chosen of value approximately (9/16)(log2n)2, values r and n are determined using sieving and primality testing on r and n, and a value t is found to compute p = tn + 1 wherein p is prime.  In elliptic curve groups defined over a binary field, a random curve is chosen, the number of points on the curve is counted and this number is checked for value of 2n wherein n is prime and n-1 meets preferred criteria. In elliptic curve groups defined over a prime field of order q, a value n = hr + 1 is computed, wherein n is prime and n-1 meets preferred criteria, and a complex multiplication method is applied on n to produce a value q and an elliptic curve E defined over q and having an order n.
