Patent CA-2467908-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NAGATA SHIGEKAZU
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 2002-11-19
Abstract: It is intended to provide apoptosis cell removal promoters whereby apoptosis cells in vivo can be quickly removed by macrophages and a removal inhibitor whereby the removal of apoptosis cells in vivo by macrophages is inhibited. Removal promoters for apoptosis cells in vivo are prepared by using as the active ingredient a fat globule membrane protein (MFG-E8-L) or an MFG-E8-L mutant having an effect of promoting the removal of apoptosis cells in vivob y macrophages (preferably recombinant human or mouse MFG-E8-L or a recombinant human or mouse MFG-E8-L mutant). These removal promoters recognize aminophospholipids such as phosphatidylserine exposed on apoptosis cell surface and bind specifically to the apoptosis cells, thereby promoting the phagocytosis on the apoptosis cells by macrophages. On the other hand, a poi nt mutation (D89E) MFG-E8-L mutant is employed as a removal inhibitor.

Title: System and method for providing sheets to an inserter system using a rotary cutter
Inventor: MASOTTA JOHN R
IPC: B26D1/62
Filed: 2004-05-25
Abstract: An inserter input system including a web feeder providing a web of printed material to be split by a web slitting knife along the web's direction of travel. The split web is then cut transverse to the direction of travel by a rotary cutter operating at a first velocity, resulting in side-by-side individual sheets. Downstream of the rotary cutter, a right angle turn mechanism receives each of the side-by-side sheets and reorients them by ninety degrees. Further the right angle turn reorients the sheets into a serial shingled arrangement. A high speed separation nip pulls individual shingled sheets out from the shingled arrangement. The speed of the separation nip is such that a predetermined gap between the previously shingled sheets is formed. In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the speed of the rotary cutter and right angle turn mechanism are controlled to adjust a quantity of sheets that would be generated from displacement traveled due to inertia during a deceleration of the system to a stop.

IPC: A61K38/21
Filed: 2003-05-12
Abstract: Cette invention est fondée sur la découverte selon laquelle des vaccins contre des maladies produites par les pathogènes, comme ici l'hépatite B, peuvent être préparés pour une stimulation plus forte des réponses immunitaires à médiation humorale ou cellulaire du type Th1, par combinaison d'une particule lipidique et d'un oligonucléotide immunostimulateur encapsulé (LNA), le LNA étant en outre associé à un antigène issu du pathogène. Les vaccins de l'invention peuvent également utiliser deux ou plusieurs épitopes différents du même antigène, ou différents antigènes issus du pathogène. Ces vaccins sont particulièrement efficaces pour améliorer une réponse à médiation humorale du type Th1, lorsque l'antigène est couplé à la particule d'acide nucléique lipidique ou lorsque la particule d'acide nucléique présente un squelette phosphorothioate (PS). Une réponse à médiation humorale améliorée se traduit, par exemple, par un fort pic précoce de production d'IFN-gamma observé quelques heures après la vaccination, suivi d'un second pic de production d'IFN-gamma plus fort observé plusieurs jours après, par corrélation par commutation isotypique des anticorps.
