Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for exploiting the discovery that members of the small integrin-binding ligand, n-linked glycoproteins family termed SIBLINGS bind to complement Factor H, and moreover that SIBLINGS proteins, such as BSP, exist in relatively acidic forms. The methods provided can be used to detect SIBLINGS proteins in samples from subjects that are suspected of having tumors or abnormal bone turnover. The invention also provides methods of using SIBLINGS proteins to protect cells from complement mediated lysis. Finally, the discovery allows for the creation of specific binding agents that facilitate the detection of SIBLINGS proteins when they are associated with Factor H.

Abstract: A drug delivery system for administering preset doses of a substance such as a drug, vaccine or the like is provided. The drug delivery system includes a holder and a pre-filled drug container such as a syringe which is securely retained in the holder. The drug container includes a barrel for containing the substance, a movable stopper situated within the barrel, and a blunt end having an opening through which the substance within the barrel can be expelled. The holder includes a distal portion and a proximal portion, each configured to accommodate the drug container, with the distal portion being able to be assembled to the proximal portion, which acts as a plunger rod during activation of the delivery system. A plurality of slots are provided for controlling the delivery of a substance and extend axially along at least one portion of the holder whereby upon activation of the system, the portions of the holder move towards one another upon the application of a minimum force and the stopper moves a preselected axial distance to expel at least a portion of the substance from the drug container. One application is to a nasal drug container, where approximately equal doses of the substance are desired to be administered to each nostril of the patient.

Abstract: A novel nuclear receptor, termed the steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR), a broad-specificity sensing receptor that is a novel branch of the nuclear receptor superfamily, has been discovered. SXR forms a heterodimer with RXR that can bind to and induce transcription from response elements present in steroid-inducible cytochrome P450 genes in response to hundreds of natural and synthetic compounds with biological activity, including therapeutic steroids as well as dietary steroids and lipids. Instead of hundreds of receptors, one for each inducing compound, the invention SXR receptors monitor aggregate levels of inducers to trigger production of metabolizing enzymes in a coordinated metabolic pathway. Agonists and antagonists of SXR are administered to subjects to achieve a variety of therapeutic goals dependent upon modulating metabolism of one or more endogenous steroids or xenobiotics to establish homeostasis. An assay is provided for identifying steroid drugs that are likely to cause drug interaction if administered to a subject in therapeutic amounts. Transgenic animals are als provided which express human SXR, thereby serving as useful models for human response to various agents which poterltially impact P450-dependent metabolic processes.

Abstract: A nitride semiconductor laser device has an improved stability of the lateral mode under high output power and a longer lifetime, so that the device can be applied to write and read light sources for recording media with high capacity. The nitride semiconductor laser device includes an active layer, a p-side cladding layer, and a p-side contact layer laminated in turn. The device further includes a waveguide region of a stripe structure formed by etching from the side of the p-side contact layer. The stripe width provided by etching is within the stripe range of 1 to 3  mu m and the etching depth is below the thickness of the p-side cladding layer of 0.1  mu m and above the active layer. Particularly, when a p-side optical waveguide layer includes a projection part of the stripe structure and a p-type nitride semiconductor layer on the projection part and the projection part of the p-side optical waveguide layer has a thickness of not more than 1  mu m, an aspect ratio is improved in far field image. Moreover, the thickness of the p-side optical waveguide layer is greater than that of an n-side optical waveguide layer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the treatment of morbid obesity or heartburn and reflux disease an elongated restriction member (12) is formed in a substantially closed loop around a human's stomach or esophagus to form a stoma opening in the stomach or esophagus. The size of the stoma opening is adjustable by an implanted adjustment device. A control device (22) is utilized to control the adjustment device, in order to either reduce or enlarge the size of the stoma opening, for example in response to the time of the day. Nausea in a treated obese human can be minimized or substantially eliminated as a result of the control device controlling the adjustment device to keep the stoma opening substantially fully open between meals (such as at night when the human is sleeping). A sensor (23), such as a pressure or position sensor, is surgically implanted in the human's body so that the sensor may either directly or indirectly sense a physical parameter of the human, such as the pressure in the stomach or the human's orientation with respect to the horizontal. If in response to sensing by the sensor it is determined by the control device that a significant change in the physical parameter has occurred, then the control device controls the adjustment device to either reduce or enlarge the size of the stoma opening.

Abstract: Dynamic balancing reduces quadrature bias in microfabricated vibrating instruments such as tuning fork gyros so that a purity of motion is achieved in the absence of any angular rate input. Balancing is achieved by ablating (74) or depositing (72) onto support structure (62) for a tuning fork gyroscope rather than the proof mass (60) itself by melting and moving material on a tuning fork beam (62). Such adjusting is advantageously done during actual operation of the gyro by laser beam application through an encapsulating transparent cover which can be either part of the chip die or an external package.

Abstract: A method for diagnosing a condition of a patient involves the steps of (a) adding one or more reagents to a test sample from a patient, the test samples comprising at least part of a blood sample from the patient, in order to cause formation of a complex comprising at least one acute phase protein at at least one human lipoprotein, while causing substantially no fiber polymerization; (b) measuring the formation of the complex over time so as to derive a time-dependent measurement profile, and (c) determining a slope and/or total change in the time-dependent measurement profile, so as to diagnose a condition of the patient. A greater formation of the complex is correlated to increased probability of death of the patient.
