Abstract:
Disclosed are a method for treating an aging-related disease and a method for screening a therapeutic agent for an aging-related disease. The method for treating an aging-related disease includes administering to a subject a progerin expression inhibitor as an active ingredient. The method for screening a therapeutic agent for an aging-related disease includes selecting a candidate drug inhibitory of progerin expression.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing a printed circuit board, the method including: preparing a base substrate having a connection pad; forming a surface treatment layer on the connection pad; refrigeration-treating the base substrate having the connection pad on which the surface treatment layer is formed; and printing a solder paste on the connection pad of the refrigeration-treated base substrate.
Abstract:
While a user uses one service in a digital multimedia broadcasting receiving terminal, there is implemented a function for suspending the service currently being used and enabling a different service to be used when the different service is provided. A function for enabling a call service to be used during a broadcast service is implemented. A call screen is displayed in a state in which a broadcast service connection is maintained, such that the user can use a new call service without stopping the broadcast service currently being used. In this concurrent service, switching between the call screen and a broadcast screen is possible. This display method can prevent images of the respective services from overlapping with each other and can provide one service without stopping another service.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a screening method of an amphiphilic peptide specifically binding to hairpin RNA, more precisely a screening method of an amphiphilic peptide having specificity and strong binding strength to target hairpin RNA using peptide library comprising those peptides having modifications of both hydrophilic face and hydrophobic face. The method of the present invention provides a screening method of an amphiphilic peptide which is specific to hairpin RNA. So, the peptide selected by the method of the present invention can be effectively used for the study of hairpin RNA functions and for the production of a novel drug using an artificial peptide binding to a hairpin RNA target.
Abstract:
Localization and map building apparatus and method applicable to a mobile robot are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a map building apparatus extracts a pattern of landmarks of the same kind and adjusts a landmark map using the extracted pattern when generating the landmark map for localization. Accordingly, since the landmark map is adjusted based on the pattern extracted on the basis of location information of each landmark, accuracy of localization and map building of the mobile robot can be improved.
Abstract:
A display apparatus and method are provided. A first control unit of the display device controls operation of the display apparatus, receives image signals from the external device, and displays the image signals. A second control unit receives user commands input through an input unit which is mounted in the display apparatus, and receives the image signals from the external device. If an abnormal image signal is received from an external device, the first control unit enters power save mode, and the second control unit, enters stand-by mode. Accordingly, whether normal image signals are input can be determined using the second control unit which has entered power save mode, so that the display apparatus can reduce the amount of power consumed after the display apparatus goes into power save mode.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus, method, and medium for allowing a mobile robot to simultaneously perform a cleaning process and a map-creating process. The apparatus includes a feature-map-creating unit creating a feature map for recognizing the position of a mobile robot; a path-map-creating unit creating a path map including a plurality of cells, each having information about whether an obstacle exists and path information, on the basis of information on the pose of the mobile robot that is obtained from the feature map; and a motion-control unit moving the mobile robot on the basis of the information about whether the obstacle exists and the path information.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes: a signal receiving unit which receives an image signal from an imaging device; an image processor which performs an image processing operation on the image signal received by the signal receiving unit; a display unit which displays an image based on the image signal processed by the image processor; and a controller which determines characteristics of the imaging device, and controls the image processor to perform a color compensation on the displayed image according to the characteristics of the imaging device.
