摘要:
A method of identifying a modulator of presenilin function, the method comprising: (i) providing (a) a polypeptide capable of binding a presenilin, which polypeptide comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or a functional variant thereof, or a fragment of either thereof which is capable of binding to presenilin; (b) a presenilin or a variant thereof or a fragment of either thereof capable of binding to a polypeptide which comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; (c) a test substance under conditions that would permit binding of a polypeptide (a) to a presenilin (b) in the absence of the test substance; (ii) monitoring presenilin mediated activity; and (iii) determining thereby whether the test substance is a modulator of presenilin activity, a modulator identified by a method of the invention and use of a modulator identified by a method of the invention in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

摘要:
An initial set of prospects in a customer database is identified, by data mining, as initially identified prospects based on predetermined selection criteria. The number of initially identified prospects is compared to a target number of prospects. When the number of initially identified prospects matches the target number of prospects, the initially identified prospects are utilized as the final selection of prospects. When the number of initially identified prospects mismatches the target number of prospects, the final selection of prospects is determined by performing a culling process or an augmenting process to reduce or increase, respectively, the initial set of prospects using a heuristic measure H, until the number of prospects in the initial set of prospects matches the target number of prospects.

Method, system, and article of manufacture for selecting prospects for a product promotion though data mining. An initial set of prospects in a customer database is identified, by data mining, as initially identified prospects based on predetermined selection criteria. The number of initially identified prospects is compared to a target number of prospects. When the number of initially identified prospects matches the target number of prospects, the initially identified prospects are utilized as the final selection of prospects. When the number of initially identified prospects mismatches the target number of prospects, the final selection of prospects is determined by performing a culling process or an augmenting process to reduce or increase, respectively, the initial set of prospects using a heuristic measure H, until the number of prospects in the initial set of prospects matches the target number of prospects.

Methods of treating acute neuronal injury by utilizing a BACE polypeptide that binds to Nogo, or compositions comprising such BACE polypeptide. Additional methods of treating a neoplastic, hyperproliferative or dysproliferative disorder, utilizing a BACE polypeptide that binds to Nogo, or compositions comprising such BACE polypeptide
摘要:
The present invention is based on a novel direct interaction between a Presenilin and a novel protein identified herein and named Sambiasin-1, a homolog thereof named Sambiasin-2, as well as a protein complex further comprising a Nicastrin. Also comprised are uses of said components and complexes, as well as methods for use of the protein and the complex, inter alia, screening, diagnosis and therapy, as well as methods of preparing the complexes.
摘要:
An adjustable chair (1) includes a chassis (2) onto which the chair is moveably mounted with respect thereto about a common plane normal to the major plane of the chassis, a pair of side walls (8) extending from the chassis and adapted to, in use, prevent accidental access to the space between the chassis and the chair from respective sides thereof, wherein at least one tambour (9,10) is provided between the front and/or the rear of the chair relative to said side, the or each tambour therefore providing a rigid but moveable barrier to accidental entry into the space between the chair and the chassis.
摘要:
Equipment for laminating webs has a pressure sensitive roller formed of a polymeric material layer resistant to wetting by molten polyethylene resin. A web transport surface for conveying the web during lamination is formed by the pressure sensitive layer and abutting solid, relatively thick polymeric material layers, preferably Teflon, which is secured against movement about the core and urged into substantial uniformity with the pressure sensitive layer by a locking ring assembly.
