Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for treating a variety of diseases and disorders that are mediated or sustained through the activity of PKC-theta, including immunological disorders and atherosclerosis. Specifically, the invention relates to a method of treating an immunological disorder or atherosclerosis in a patient comprising treating blood from the patient, or a defined component of said blood, with an inhibitor of PKC-theta ex vivo and then re-administering the treated blood to the patient.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a structure optimal for a magnetic memory.SOLUTION: The magnetic device comprises: a pinned magnetic layer (FM1) with a magnetization vector having a fixed magnetization direction; a free magnetic layer (FM2) with at least one magnetization vector having a changeable magnetization direction; and a first non-magnetic layer (N1) which spatially separates the pinned magnetic layer and the free magnetic layer so that magnetic interaction between the pinned magnetic layer and the free magnetic layer is minimized.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel TNF (tumor necrosis factor) antibody overcoming problems of murine antibody immunoexpression and having low immunoexpression and high neutralization activity. SOLUTION: The invention provides: an anti-TNF antibody, fragment and region thereof which are specific for human tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and are useful in vivo for diagnosis and therapy of various TNFα-mediated diseases and symptoms; a polynucleotide encoding a murine and chimeric antibody; methods for producing the antibody; and various approaches of the anti-TNF antibody, fragment, region and derivative thereof for the applications to immunoassays and immunological therapy.
