摘要:
Combinations comprising (or consisting essentially of) one or more compounds of the formula (I) or (II) with one or more ancillary compounds, to processes for preparing the combinations, and to various therapeutic uses of the combinations. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the combinations as well as a method of treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Becker muscular dystrophy or cachexia using the combinations.
摘要:
The present invention provides serum-free cell culture media formulations which are capable of supporting the in vitro cultivation or animal cells. The media comprise at least one nutrient of non-animal derivation, such as at least one plant peptide and/or at least one non-animal or plant lipid and/or fatty acid. The media may further optionally comprise an enzymatic digest or extract of yeast cells. The present invention also provides methods of cultivating animal cells in vitro using these cell culture media formulations. In addition, the media of the present invention can be used for growth of animal cells for virus production.
摘要:
The present invention provides a cell culture medium formulation that supports the in vitro cultivation, particularly in suspension, of mammalian cells, particularly epithelial cells and fibroblast cells, and methods for cultivating mammalian cells in suspension in vitro using these media. The media comprise a basal medium and a polyanionic or polyanionic compound, preferably a polysulfonated or polysulfated compound, and more preferably dextran sulfate. The present invention also provides chemically defined, protein-free eukaryotic cell culture media comprising an iron chelate and zinc, which is capable of supporting the growth (and particularly the high-density growth of mammalian cells) in suspension culture, increasing the level of expression of recombinant protein in cultured cells, and/or increasing virus production in cultured cells.
摘要:
The present invention relates to monoclonal anti-human YKL-antibodies which are capable to modulate biological processes in which YKL-40 plays a prominent role, e.g. inhibit the growth and/or inducing apoptosis of cells, in particular cancer cells. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said antibodies and uses said antibodies and/or pharmaceutical compositions for treatment of a disease wherein inhibition of cell growth, cell differentiation, remodelling of extracellular matrix, metastasis and/or induction of cell death due to apoptosis is a prerequisite for successful curing. An antibody of the invention is capable of inhibiting biological function of YKL-40 in the above mentioned processes by binding to a specific epitope on YKL-40.

摘要:
A method and system for analyzing and reporting institutional investments provides a single platform for daily investment accounting, compliance, performance, and risk reports for investment portfolios held at single or multiple custody/safekeeping locations. The method involves retrieving transaction data from multiple independent financial institutions and storing it in a database in a standardized format and retrieving security data from one or more security information service providers and storing it in the database. The method further involves applying a uniform set of customized accounting, compliance, risk and performance parameters to the transaction data and security data stored in the database and, in response to a user request, calculating and reporting selected data to the user in accordance with the uniform accounting, compliance, risk and performance parameters.
摘要:
The present invention is drawn to a hematology control made from particles a particle having a biopolymer attached to a surface of the particle. The particle simulates a component of a blood sample, such as a reticulocyte or nucleated red blood cell component of a blood cell sample in a flow cytometer or hematology analysis instrument. The present invention is further drawn to methods of making and using the hematology control.
摘要:
The invention is a method of identifying the presence of a disease state in a mammal which is associated with degradation of connective tissue in the mammal which contains the protein known as YKL-40. The method is a competitive immunoassay for YKL-40. It can be used, for example, to identify the presence of inflammatory or degenerative joint disease and tumor metastasis (to the extent it can be correlated to serum YKL-40 levels). Serum YKL-40 levels as detected and quantified by the inventive method are also suggestive of the prognosis for the length of survival in breast cancer patients following recurrence and/or metastasis of their cancers.
