摘要:
It is intended to clarify a molecule which is available as a target in treating or diagnosing cancer and utilize the molecule in the medical field or the research field. By treating IgSF4, which has been identified as a molecule specifically expressed in lung cancer cells, with an antibody, an ADCC activity is exerted. Based on this finding, an anti-IgSF4 antibody is provided as a means efficacious in treating cancer, etc.

The method uses an integrated circuit comprising a processor (603), a non-volatile memory (602), especially a flash memory, a system clock and an interface (605), which is connected on the one side to the processor (602) and on the other side to the non-volatile memory (602). When the address (ba[ ]) provided by the processor (603) has changed, the interface (605) leads the address (ba[ ]) to the non-volatile memory (602), creates a strobe signal (CL; DCR) within the system clock cycle during which the address (ba[ ]) has changed and directs it to the non-volatile memory (602). As soon as the data in the non-volatile memory (602) corresponding to the address (ba[ ]) are available the data will be directed to the processor (603). Thereby it is possible to get on the integrated circuit the highest data throughput according to the flash memory (602) access time and a minimized chip area at the same time.

The present invention provides engineered tissue scaffolds, engineered tissues, and methods of using them. The scaffolds and tissues are derived from natural tissues and are created using non-thermal irreversible electroporation (IRE). Use of IRE allows for ablation of cells of the tissue to be treated, but allows vascular and neural structures to remain essentially unharmed. Use of IRE thus permits preparation of thick tissue scaffolds and tissues due to the presence of vasculature within the scaffolds. The engineered tissues can be used in methods of treating subjects, such as those in need of tissue replacement or augmentation.

It is intended to provide a means of diagnosing myocardial infarction which shows a high accuracy and a high predictability. The risk of myocardial infarction is diagnosed by a method comprising the following steps: (i) the step of analyzing 2 or more polymorphisms among 10 gene polymorphisms or 5 gene polymorphisms proved as relating to myocardial infarction; (ii) the step of determining the genotype of a nucleic acid sample based on the polymorphism data obtained in the above step; and (iii) the step of determining the genetic risk of myocardial infarction from the genotype thus obtained.

Embodiments of the present invention overcome the well-known recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass in an economically viable manner. A process and a system are provided for the efficient fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass into cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The cellulose and hemicellulose thus obtained are highly amorphous and can be readily converted into highly concentrated mixtures of five and six carbon sugars using known methods. Typical yields of sugars exceed 100 grams of sugars per liter of sugar solution. Other products, such as alcohols, can easily be prepared according to methods of the invention. The modest process conditions and low solvent/solid ratios of some embodiments of the invention require relatively low capital and processing costs.
摘要:
Disclosed is a transglutaminase having excellent stability. Also disclosed is a process for producing the transglutaminase. Specifically disclosed is a stabilized transglutaminase, which has such a structure in which a pro-sequence peptide of transglutaminase is bound to a mature transglutaminase. Also specifically disclosed is a process for producing stabilized transglutaminase, which includes the steps of: culturing a microorganism capable of producing transglutaminase under the conditions where transglutaminase can be produced; and separating and collecting matured transglutaminase having a pro-sequence peptide bound thereto from a culture medium.
