Patent CA-2685417-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TANI KENZABURO
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2008-04-25
Abstract: The object is to provide a safe viral vector for use in a gene therapy, which can be introduced by a simple manipulation, and which can achieve a satisfactory level of expression of a target gene in vivo. It is found that, when a cytokine capable of binding to heparin (e.g., a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)) or a chemokine (e.g., TARC, RANTES) is expressed in vivo by using a viral vector prepared based on a minus-stranded RNA virus, the cytokine or the chemokine exhibits an anti-tumor effect and also induces a superior protective effect compared to that achieved by using a conventional adenoviral vector. Thus, disclosed is a minus-stranded RNA viral vector carrying a cytokine gene or a chemokine gene. The viral vector is suitable for the treatment of cancer, particularly metastatic cancer.Also disclosed is a composition comprising the viral vector. Further disclosed is a gene therapy using the viral vector or the composition.

IPC: A46B9/04
Filed: 2010-07-26
Abstract: A bristle configuration providing enhanced cleaning of teeth. The bristle pattern includes large tufts having a greater cross-sectional area than standard toothbrush bristle tufts. The large tufts are contoured so that the top ends of the bristles comprising the large tufts are not all at the same height. More than one raised section is provided, the raised sections being spatially isolated from one another to function independently of one another.  Preferably, at least one of the raised sections has a sufficient brushing surface area with bristles extending a sufficient height above surrounding bristles such that that raised section can reach into and clean interdental tooth surfaces, preferably while the remaining bristles in the large tuft clean other tooth surfaces. Another aspect of the invention relates to a zigzag or sawtooth bristle profile, wherein each tuft making up the profile has its own unique substantially conical or frustoconical profile. In one embodiment, the height of conical or frustoconical bristle tufts increases from the sides of the head towards the midline of the head.
