Title: Directional differential pressure detector
Inventor: WISEMAN BRIAN M
IPC: G01L13/00
Filed: 2014-03-12
Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for indicating the presence of a directional differential pressure between separated adjacent spaces are provided. A differential pressure set point indicator may be configured to correlate multiple potential angles of inclination of an elongated conduit to respective threshold differential pressures between two spaces which generate net flow of fluid sufficient to cause a lightweight ball to move from one region of the conduit to an opposing region. The elongated conduit may be adjustable in length so as to accommodate installation of the device into walls of varying thickness. The device may include a sound attenuator that reduces noise upon impact of the ball with either end of the conduit. The device may also include a sealing material that is flexible yet firm enough to provide both a seal with the exterior surface of the conduit and support for the conduit when oriented in a tilted configuration.

Title: Use of compounds inhibiting apelin / apj / gp130 signaling for treating cancer
Inventor: GAVARD JULIE
IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 2015-03-20
Abstract: Today, despite current advances in combinatorial therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, aggressive cancers remain fatal. Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) may account for chemotherapy resistance and thus represent a promising therapeutic target. In this context, the present inventors identified essential intracellular pathways favoring the self-renewal and survival of CSCs. More precisely, the present inventors showed that the cytokine co-receptor GP130 acts as a co-receptor for Apelin / APJ signaling and that the interaction of Apelin with APJ/GP130 activates a dual signaling pathway involving the Akt/mTOR and STAT3 transcription factor, thereby promoting CSCs survival and self-renewal. They therefore propose to block these pathways in order to treat patients suffering from tumors containing CSCs, such as glioblastomas. In another aspect, the invention relates to the use of the Apelin expression level for evaluating the survival probability of a subject suffering from glioblastoma.
