Abstract:
The present invention relates to transgenic animals, as well as compositions and methods relating to the characterization of gene function. Specifically, the present invention provides transgenic mice comprising disruptions in PRO196, PRO217, PRO231, PRO236, PRO245, PRO246, PRO258, PRO287, PRO328, PRO344, PRO357, PRO526, PRO724, PRO731, PRO732, PRO1003, PRO1104, PRO1151, PRO1244, PRO1298, PRO1313, PRO1570, PRO1886, PRO1891, PRO4409, PRO5725, PRO5994, PRO6097, PRO7425, PRO10102, PRO10282, PRO61709 or PRO779 genes. Such in vivo studies and characterizations may provide valuable identification and discovery of therapeutics and/or treatments useful in the prevention, amelioration or correction of diseases or dysfunctions associated with gene disruptions such as neurological disorders; cardiovascular, endothelial or angiogenic disorders; eye abnormalities; immunological disorders; oncological disorders; bone metabolic abnormalities or disorders; lipid metabolic disorders; or developmental abnormalities.
Abstract:
A hinge apparatus includes a hinge assembly (30) and an enclosure (40). The hinge assembly includes a sleeve (31). The enclosure forms two elastic portions (46) therein. The hinge assembly is slidably received in the enclosure, and the sleeve is clamped between the elastic portions. The enclosure defines an opening (42) configured for exposing the hinge assembly from the enclosure.
Abstract:
A cover locking structure (100) for portable electronic device includes a housing (20), a releasable member (30) and a cover (10). The housing includes an end wall (22) and an extending wall (26). The end wall defines an opening (222) defined therein. One end of the extending wall connects with the end wall. The extending wall has a locking hole (2642) defined therein. The releasable member is flexibly fixed on the housing and has a block (3242) formed thereon. The block corresponds to the locking hole of the extending wall. The cover has a hook (14) formed thereon. The hook is locked in the locking hole when the cover is assembled to the housing. The block of the releasable member pushes the hook out off the locking hole when the cover is to be detached from the housing.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to transgenic animals, as well as compositions and methods relating to the characterization of gene function. Specifically, the present invention provides transgenic mice comprising disruptions in PRO227, PRO233, PRO238, PRO1328, PRO4342, PRO7423, PRO10096, PRO21384, PRO353 or PRO1885 genes. Such in vivo studies and characterizations may provide valuable identification and discovery of therapeutics and/or treatments useful in the prevention, amelioration or correction of diseases or dysfunctions associated with gene disruptions such as neurological disorders; cardiovascular, endothelial or angiogenic disorders; eye abnormalities; immunological disorders; oncological disorders; bone metabolic abnormalities or disorders; lipid metabolic disorders; or developmental abnormalities.
Abstract:
A battery cover assembly for a portable electronic device (100), the battery cover assembly includes a housing (10), a cover (10) and a locking mechanism (30). The cover defines a latching groove (242). The cover is hinged to the housing. The locking mechanism latches the cover to the housing. The locking mechanism includes a button (42) and a spring (44). The button slidably engages with the cover. The spring is disposed between the button and the cover, and the spring provides an elastic force to the button configured for allowing the button to lock with the latching groove.
Abstract:
A wireless earphone includes an earphone, a microphone, a hanging portion and an adjusting portion fixed with the hanging portion. The answering portion is mounted on the junction area of the hanging portion and the adjusting portion. The microphone is mounted on the other end of the adjusting portion. The wireless earphone is made of flexible, elastic material. The bluetooth has at least one block protruding thereon, to make the wireless earphone be disassembly mounted on a portable electronic device. The invention also includes a portable electronic device using the wireless earphone.
