Abstract:
Disclosed are a novel compound represented by the following chemical formula (1), useful for the prophylaxis and treatment of angiogenic diseases, its production, and a novel microorganism producing the same. Aspergillus sp. Y80118 isolated from soil was found to produce 7,8-dihydro-1,7-dihydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-xanthenone-8-carboxylic acid methylester which inhibits VEGF-induced proliferation of HUVEC, angiogenesis in CAM assay, and tumor growth. The novel compound can be effectively used for the medical treatment of anigiogenic diseases, including cancers, rheumatoid arthritis, and diabetic retinopathy.
Abstract:
A memory module and a method of packaging memory devices are provided. The method prepares semiconductor packages of the memory devices, each of which has external pins that include data pins and command signal pins, and mounts the packages on a printed circuit board, on which a first bus, a second bus, and a third bus are formed. The data pins of odd-numbered packages and even-numbered packages connect to the first bus and the second bus, respectively. The control signal pins connect to the third bus. Each package can optionally include dummy pins, where the dummy pins of the even-numbered packages and the odd-numbered packages respectively connect to the first and second buses so that each of the first, second and third buses connects to the same number of external pins. The pin assignment of the even-numbered packages can be different from the pin assignment of the odd-numbered packages to facilitate connections of the buses.

Moore; and method for treating a patient of an immune disease caused by an overproduction of interleukin-6 by inhibiting the production of interleukin-6, which comprises administering extracts from a root of Stephania tetrandra S. Moore to the patient.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a compound inhibiting HF-1 activity, a preparation method of the same, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same as an active ingredient. The compound of the present invention demonstrates anticancer activity not by non-selective cytotoxicity but by inhibiting the activity of HIF-1, the transcription factor playing an important role in cancer cell growth and metastasis.Accordingly, the compound or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof according to the present invention inhibits HIF-1 activity, and therefore can be used as a therapeutic agent for solid tumors such as colon cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer and breast cancer. In addition, the compound or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof according to the present invention can be used as an active ingredient for a therapeutic agent for diabetic retinopathy or arthritis which may become worse when hypoxia-induced VEGF expression by HIF-1 increases.
Abstract:
A data receiver includes a first buffer circuit and a second buffer circuit. The first buffer circuit varies a resistance of a data path and a resistance of a reference voltage path based on a plurality of control signals, and adjusts a voltage level of an input data signal and a level of a reference voltage to generate an internal data signal and an internal reference voltage based on the varied resistance of the data path and the varied resistance of the reference voltage path. The second buffer circuit compares the internal data signal with the internal reference voltage to generate a data signal.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for generating a gene expression profile by obtaining data relating to phenotypes and data relating to gene expression from biological samples and statistically analyzing them together.
Abstract:
Disclosed are indole derivatives, a preparation method thereof, and a composition for the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases, containing the same as an active ingredient. The indole derivatives have inhibitory activity against DGAT (diacylglycerol acyltransferase), which causes metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes in the process of lipid metabolism. With the ability to effectively control lipid metabolism and energy metabolism, the composition is thus useful in the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases, such as obesity and diabetes.
Abstract:
A method of forming an integrated circuit module may include interposing an auxiliary PCB between at least one semiconductor chip and a main PCB, the auxiliary PCB having at least one circuit pattern for electrical connection to one of the semiconductor chip and at least one circuit pattern formed on the main PCB.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a use of ZFP91 based on the functions of ZFP91 (Zinc Finger Protein 91) and the interaction of ZFP91 with NF-κB (Nuclear factor kappa B) signal transduction pathway proteins, more precisely a method to inhibit the activation of NF-κB alternative pathway by regulating ZFP91 activation, to inhibit tumor growth by inhibiting the transcription factor HIF-1 (hypoxia inducible factor-1) activation, to inhibit cancer malignancy by inhibiting angiogenesis, or reversely a method to increase the activation of NF-κB alternative pathway or to increase angiogenesis by increasing activation of HIF-1. The method of regulating ZFP91 activation of the present invention can increase or reduce HIF-1α stability by increasing or reducing the activation of NF-κB alternative pathway, so that it can be effectively used for the development of an anticancer agent, a therapeutic agent for arthritis, a therapeutic agent for ulcerative colitis, an anti-inflammatory agent and an angiogenesis inducer.
