Abstract:
The present invention provides various uses of VEGF binding peptides, including methods to treat disorders associated with abnormal angiogenesis. In addition, the invention provides VEGF peptides conjugated to antibodies alone and in conjunction with other anti-angiogenic molecules.
Abstract:
This invention provides a method that allows selection of antibodies against cells (e.g., tumor cells) in situ using laser capture microdissection. By restricting antibody selection to binders of internalizing epitopes, a panel of phage antibodies was generated that targets clinically represented prostate cancer antigens.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the application of isolated promoters and synthetic dominant selection constructs and enhancers for gene targeting for efficient production of genetically modified cells in a species selected from the Pucciniomycotina and Ustilaginomycotina subphyla, in particular, species selected from the Rhodosporidium, Sporisorium, Sporobolomyces or Ustilago genera.
Abstract:
A method includes receiving a query that that is unstructured for a plurality databases; receiving data identifying resources that are determined to be responsive to the query, each resource associated with a search score that defines a respective position of the resource in an order of responsiveness to the query; determining, a service requirement from the terms of the query; determining, for each of the databases, a service requirement score for the database; for each resource that is associated with one of the databases, adjusting the search score based on the service requirement score for the database; generating search results, each search result identify a corresponding resource that was determined to be responsive to the query, and the search results being ordered according to the respective search scores and adjusted search scores of the resources.
Abstract:
The invention further relates to conjugated polymers, and methods, articles and compositions employing them as described herein. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods, articles and compositions for the detection and analysis of biomolecules in a sample. Provided assays include those determining the presence of a target biomolecule in a sample or its relative amount, or the assays may be quantitative or semi-quantitative. The methods can be performed on a substrate. The methods can be performed in an array format on a substrate, which can be a sensor. In some embodiments, detection assays are provided employing sensor biomolecules that do not comprise a fluorophore that can exchange energy with the cationic multichromophore. In some aspects biological assays are provided in which energy is transferred between one or more of the multichromophore, a label on the target biomolecule, a label on the sensor biomolecule, and/or a fluorescent dye specific for a polynucleotide, in all permutations. The multichromophore may interact at least in part electrostatically with the sensor and/or the target, and an increase in energy transfer with the polymer may occur upon binding of the sensor and the target. Other variations of the inventions are described further herein.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to interferon (IFN)-α2a modified at a specific Lys residue with Y-shaped branched polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative and the preparation thereof, as well as the use of the prepared IFN-α2a modified by PEG at a single amino acid residue in medicines.
Abstract:
The present invention directs an anti-shock method for head stack assembly which carries a slider for flying on a disk for operation, and the anti-shock method includes: inputting a constant current to a head disk interface sensor which is deposited in the slider; obtaining a changing voltage of the head disk interface sensor, which is changed with the temperature of the head disk interface sensor as the slider is shocked; outputting the changing voltage to a controller with a threshold set therein; if the changing voltage is bigger than the threshold for a specified number of times, the controller is triggered to control the head stack assembly to stop operating and load on a ramp beside the disk; while if the changing voltage is small than the threshold for said specified number of times, the controller is not be triggered and the head stack assembly still operates.
Abstract:
A recirculation fan includes a casing, a covering member, and a fan assembly. The casing has a base. The covering member is coupled with the casing to define an accommodation space. The fan assembly is disposed within the accommodation space, and includes a first impeller, a second impeller, a motor, and a plurality of magnetic elements. The second impeller is located beside the first impeller. The motor is fixed on the base of the casing and connected with the first impeller for driving rotation of the first impeller. The magnetic elements are arranged between the first impeller and the second impeller. A wind force generated by the first impeller and a magnetic torque resulted from a magnetic vortex of the magnetic elements cause contactless rotation of the second impeller.
Abstract:
A kind of growth method of Fe3Nin the MOCVD system, comprising following process: 1) make the surface nitridation of sapphire substrate; 2) pump in carrier gas N2, ammonia and organic gallium sources, and grow low temperature GaN buffer on substrate; 3) raise temperature and grow the GaN supporting layer; 4) pump in FeCp2 as Fe sources, then grow Fe3N on the GaN supporting layer; the Fe3N granular films and the Fe3N single crystal films are obtained.
