IPC: B60P1/28
Filed: 2003-05-12
Abstract: A wall structure of a trailer box (10) is constructed from a plurality of panels (36, 38, 40) which are welded together where their edges meet. The panels (36, 38, 40) are each extrusions and each includes thin side skins (42, 44) and thin webs (46, 48, 50). The edge regions that are connected together include thickened portions that dissipate a substantial amount of the heat provided by the welds (56, 58).

Filed: 2002-01-09
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the use of benzimidazole derivatives fo r the treatment of tumors and in combination with tumor suppressor gene therap y. In a particular embodiment, treatment of p53-positive tumors with benzimidazole derivatives induces p53 expression and increases its half-life , resulting in apoptotic death of the tumor cells. Similarly, in conjunction with p53 gene therapy, benzimidazole derivatives induce p53 expression and accumulation in tumor cells regardless of their p53 status. The combination treatment subsequently elicits apoptosis of the tumor cells.

Abstract: A method of regulating CCR3 expression by transcriptional and mRNA control. In one embodiment, regulation ossurs in a non-promoter, regulatory region of the CCR3 gene, such as untranslated exons 1, 2, and/or 3. This type of regulation has a preferential effect on eosinophilic cells; such selectivity advantageously produces less deleterious side effects when administered in a pharmaceutical prepearation. Regeulation of CCR3 expression by promoter targeting also presents a method to reduce CCR3 expression in a cell-specific or nonspecific manner. Other types of regulatory compounds do not semonstrate such a prefential effect. Because CCR3 is expressed on cells involved in inflammatory reactions, regulations of CCR3 provides an intervention site for asthma, as well as other allergic, inflammatory and hypersensitivity reactions, eosinophil-mediated diseases, and infectious disorders.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif d'alimentation pour porcs. Ce dispositif permet de mélanger des quantités dosées de liquides et d'aliments secs qui se déplacent vers le bas, sur une zone de mélange jusqu'à une zone d'alimentation d'une auge. Les aliments secs et les liquides sont distribués à partir du dessus de la zone de mélange de manière à tomber sur la zone de mélange vers le bas, et sont amenés à la zone de mélange selon une disposition prédéterminée. Les liquides sont amenés dans la zone de mélange selon une disposition semblable, généralement au moyen d'une buse de pulvérisation. L'apport d'aliments et d'eau est activé par l'animal, et l'activation de l'animal est inhibée à certains intervalles de manière à contrôler le cycle d'alimentation des animaux. Dans ce but, les intervalles entre l'inhibition et/ou la durée de chaque inhibition peuvent être ajustés. Le niveau d'alimentation dans l'auge est détecté pour éviter l'accumulation d'aliments mélangés non mangés dans l'auge.
