Title: Tissue protective peptides and uses thereof
Inventor: COLEMAN THOMAS
IPC: A61K38/17
Filed: 2006-08-07
Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel tissue protective peptides. The tissue protective peptides of the invention may bind to a tissue protective receptor complex. In particular, the present invention is drawn to tissue protective peptides derived from or sharing consensus sequences with portions of cytokine receptor ligands, including Erythropoietin (EPO), that are not involved in the binding of the ligand to the receptor complex, e.g., to the EPO receptor homodimer. Accordingly, the tissue protective peptides of the invention are derived from the amino acid sequences of regions of cytokine receptor ligands that are generally located on or within the region of the ligand protein that is opposite of the receptor complex, i.e., are generally derived from amino acid sequences of regions of the ligand protein that face away from the receptor complex while the ligand is bound to the receptor. The invention is further directed to the consensus sequences for use in engineering a synthetic tissue protective peptide. These tissue protective peptides also include fragments, chimeras, as well as peptides designed to mimic the spatial localization of key amino acid residues within the tissue protective receptor ligands, e.g., EPO. The invention further encompasses methods for treating or preventing a disease or disorder using tissue protective peptides of the current invention. The invention also encompasses methods for enhancing excitable tissue function using tissue protective peptides of the current invention.

Title: Method and device for producing very fine particles and coating such particles
Inventor: MOESCHWITZER JAN
IPC: B01J2/00
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: Disclosed are methods and devices for producing very fine particles which are then coated with protective polymers in another step of the process. The particles are produced using a method in which a liquid flow comprising a particle-free liquid 1 that contains the active substance in a dissolved form is combined with a second liquid flow comprising a liquid 2 in a high-energy zone or no sooner than two seconds before reaching the high-energy zone. Said two liquids can be mixed with each other while the active substance dissolved in liquid 1 is insoluble or more difficult to dissolve in liquid 2 than in liquid 1 and settles in the form of particles in the high-energy zone or within a maximum of 2 seconds before reaching the high-energy zone when the two liquids are mixed. The obtained particles are introduced into an aqueous outer phase which contains the coating materials in a dissolved form and are then subjected to a drying step such that said materials settle on the particles as a closed coating. The coated particles are protected from damaging influences and are provided with modified release kinetics compared to uncoated particles.

Inventor: LEE SANG-YONG
IPC: G06K17/00
Filed: 2006-11-01
Abstract: A method and device for generating and decoding an image code without a direction finder pattern are provided. In the method of generating an image code, a two-dimensional image is generated by encoding the configured basic information and the error correction information, and disposing the encoded basic and error correction information in predetermined regions, respectively.  It is determined whether the two-dimensional image can be decoded for directions which are different from a basic direction of the two-dimensional image, respectively, and the two-dimensional image is output as a physical or electronic image code when a result from decoding for the directions which are different from the basic direction of the two-dimensional image is the same as a decoding result for the basic direction, or when decoding cannot be performed for a direction which is different from the basic direction. In the method of decoding an image code, a physically or electronically represented image code is received as an input, and a decoding result for a direction for which the decoding result has the least number of errors from among the results decoded for each direction is output. Accordingly, a direction of an image code can be detected without any overhead or with a minimal overhead.
