摘要:
The invention provides methods of treating diseases, disorders or injuries involving demyelination and dysmyelination, including multiple sclerosis, by the administration of an Sp35 antagonist. Additional methods include methods for inhibiting the binding of the Sp35 polypeptide with the ErbB2 polypeptide and a method for increasing ErbB2 phosphorylation by contacting oligodendrocytes with an effective amount of a composition comprising an Sp35 antagonist of the invention. Further embodiments of the invention include methods of inhibiting the binding of the Sp35 polypeptide with the ErbB2, increasing ErbB2 phosphorylation and promoting oligodendrocyte differentiation comprising contacting oligodendrocyte or oligodendrcoyte progenitor cells with an ErbB2 binding agent.

Internally colored glass and glass-like blocks (10) and the method for making them. No means for coating the internal cavities (26) of clear glass and glass-like hollow blocks has been available. Color coating provides aesthetically pleasing structures. Internally colored glass and glass-like blocks may be used in building internal room dividers, providing colorful building designs and for providing color relief in heretofore otherwise drab structures.

An electric motor includes a frame having opposing first and second ends, and an endshield coupled to at least one of the first frame end and the second frame end. The endshield includes a body and at least one endshield channel extending through the body and configured to carry a cooling fluid to facilitate cooling the electric motor.
摘要:
Provided is a fusion molecule comprising a DNA sequence encoding a thioredoxin-like protein fused to a DNA sequence encoding a second peptide or protein. The peptide or protein may be fused to the amino terminus of the thioredoxin-like molecule, the carboxyl terminus of the thioredoxin-like molecule, or within the thioredoxin-like molecule, for example at the active-site loop of the molecule. The fusion molecule may be modified to introduce one or more metal-binding/chelating amino-acid residues to aid in purification. Expression of this fusion molecule under the control of a regulatory sequence capable of directing its expression in a desired host cell, produces high levels of stable and soluble fusion protein. The fusion protein, located in the bacterial cytoplasm, may be selectively released from the cell by osmotic shock or freeze/thaw procedures. It may be optionally cleaved to liberate the soluble, correctly folded heterologous protein from the thioredoxin-like portion.
摘要:
An electron beam lithography system having a beamlet shaping section that includes a first multi-aperture array having m rows and n columns of apertures having a first shape and a second multi-aperture array with m rows and n columns of apertures having a second shape. Electron beamlets formed by the first multi-aperture array are deflected by a deflector unit before passing through the second multi-aperture array. The superposition of the electron beamlets on the second multi-aperture produces electron beamlets having a selected shape. Deflection logic on an active beam aperture array blank selected electron beamlets. The deflection logic can be updated with the next logic pattern as the current logic pattern is being executed. The unblanked electron beamlets are directed onto a surface to be exposed. The deflection logic on the active beam aperture array, and the multi-aperture arrays, are shielded from electrons and x-rays generated by the electrons striking surfaces within the electron beam lithography system. Sensitive deflection logic is radiation hardened to prevent degradation.

摘要:
Switching circuits, latches and methods are provided, such as those that may respond to an input signal that transitions from a first binary level to a second binary level. One such switching circuit may have a metastable state that is closer to a first voltage corresponding to the first binary level than it is to a second voltage corresponding to the second binary level. In other embodiments, the metastable state may be dynamically adjustable so that it is at one voltage before the circuit switches and at a different voltage after the circuit switches. As a result, the switching circuit may respond relatively quickly to the input signal transitioning from the first binary level to the second binary level.
