Abstract: L'invention concerne un nouveau polymorphisme nucléotidique unique (SNP) dans les répétitions en tandem 5' isolées de le gène de la thymidylate synthase (TS) et ces procédés d'utilisation. Le nouveau polymorphisme nucléotidique unique, situé dans le 12è nucléotide d'une troisième répétition en tandem (3R) de 28 bp du gène thymidylate synthase, substitue un C par un G, et est la forme variante de la répétition. Des individus ayant la forme de type sauvage de 3R présentent une meilleure transcription du gène thymidylate synthase que des individus ayant la forme variante. Selon l'invention, une délétion de six bases appariées dans la zone 3' de TS (-6 bp/1494) indique une instabilité d'ARNm et donc une production réduite de thymidylate synthase. Dans un tissu malade, p.ex. cancéreux, une production réduite de thymidylate synthase est utile car elle empêche les cellules cancéreuses de grandir et de se diffuser. L'analyse de chaque polymorphisme ou des deux ensemble permet de prédire une réponse d'un individu à des traitements chimiothérapeutiques et des traitements contre des maladies cardiovasculaires étant donné que le cancer et les maladies cardiovasculaires sont associées aux niveaux de thymidylate synthase chez un individu.

IPC: A61K31/55

Abstract: A method for encapsulation of pharmaceutical agents (e.g., antineoplastic agents) in liposomes is provided, having preferably a high drug:lipid ratio. Liposomes can be made by a process that loads the drug by an active mechanism using a transmembrane pH gradient. Using this technique, trapping efficiencies approach 100%. Drug:lipid ratios employed are higher than for older traditional liposome preparations, and the release rate of the drug from the liposomes is reduced. After loading, residual acid is quenched with a quenching agent that is base permeable at low temperatures. The residual aciditiy is thus reduced and chemical stability (e.g. against hydrolysis) is enhanced. The stability of both the liposome and the pharmaceutical agent is thus maintained, prior to administration. The pH gradient is, however, present when the liposome is administered in vivo because the quenching agent rapidly exits the liposome.

Abstract: Upon reception of a query about the address of a
server from a client, a DNS server sends a query about
the address of that server to an external DNS server.
The DNS server checks based on the address obtained
from the external DNS server if connection to the
server can be established. If connection to the server
cannot be established, and the DNS server receives a
query about the address of the server, the DNS server
returns a response indicating that the address is not
available. When the address is returned before the
check process, the DNS sever sets an expiration time
shorter than that of the address of the server obtained
from the external DNS server as the expiration time of
the address of the server.

Abstract: Flavored dosage forms, e.g., lozenges and gums, are provided for sustained release of a flavoring agent in the mouth. The dosage forms provide sustained release by virtue of a wet matrix formed by admixture of a biocompatible, hydrophilic, water-insoluble polymer such as ethylcellulose and a flavoring agent, particularly an essential oil or a constituent thereof, e.g., a terpene or sesquiterpene. The dosage forms may also include a second beneficial agent in addition to the flavoring agent. Exemplary such beneficial agents include ionizable zinc compounds and other cold remedies, local anesthetic and anti-infective agents, diet aids, fluoride-releasing compounds, and nicotine. The dosage forms, when formulated as lozenges, may be somewhat adhesive or substantially nontacky, depending primarily on the molecular weight of the hydrophilic polymer. Adhesive lozenges can serve as dosage forms that adhere to the teeth or gums for delivery of a beneficial agent thereto. Methods for using the dosage forms to provide sustained release of a flavoring agent and optionally deliver a second beneficial agent are also provided, as are methods for treating the common cold, treating a sore throat, facilitating weight loss, and assisting in smoking cessation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device, the use thereof, and to a method for determining the solids content in suspensions. The inventive method is characterized in that ultrasound probes are used for ascertaining, in a manner that is as synchronous as possible, characteristic measured quantities such as sound velocity or density of both the suspension as well as of the mother liquor of the suspension, and for determining the solids content based on these measured values with the aid of the known density of the solid in the suspension or with the aid of a previously ascertained sound velocity for a suspension having a specified maximum solids content. The inventive method is advantageous in that probes can be used, which are almost entirely resistant to incrustations or cakings, and which react while being relatively insensitive to the presence of gas bubbles. In addition, the probes require virtually no narrowings of the cross-section in the flow-conducting lines thus enabling the prevention of blockages.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un circuit de test (2) servant à la mesure précise de la vitesse de propagation de signal, de la broche d'entrée (29) vers la broche de sortie (31), au travers d'un circuit intégré, par disposition d'une bascule D (33) dans la trajectoire de signal, à proximité de la broche de sortie (31), afin d'enregistrer l'arrivée d'une transition de signal de test. La bascule est cadencée (CLK ; 34, 35) à diverses fréquences d'horloge. Aux fréquences élevées, des transitions de signal de test appliquées à la broche d'entrée (29), coïncidant avec une transition d'horloge, n'arrivent pas à la broche de sortie à temps pour un enregistrement sur la transition d'horloge suivante (Q ; 36, 37 = bas). Aux fréquences d'horloge basses, la transition de test peut se propager au travers du circuit intégré et peut donc être enregistrée (Q ; 36, 37 = haut) par la bascule. Du fait de la réduction successive de la fréquence d'horloge et de l'envoi de signaux de test au travers du circuit, la moitié de la période d'horloge (1/2 x TCLK) nécessaire à l'enregistrement de la transition de signal de test, correspond à la durée d'entrée à sortie (Tdelay) mesurée.
