Pharmaceutical agents and food products which have no side effects, are easy to ingest continuously, and have a serum triglyceride-lowering effect are provided. A lipid metabolism-ameliorating agent and a serum triglyceride-lowering agent, each comprising as an active ingredient a culture of a bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus, are disclosed. The bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus is preferably Bacillus subtilis, and more preferably Bacillus subtilis C-3102 (FERN BP-1096). The lipid metabolism-ameliorating agent and the serum triglyceride-lowering agent are useful for treating and preventing diseases such as arteriosclerosis.
摘要:
Brain-localizing polypeptides carrying a reactive group for linking to a molecule that does not have brain-localizing activity were successfully produced by introducing at least two lysine residues into cyclized polypeptides having a brain-localizing motif sequence. These polypeptides have improved metabolic stability compared to conventional brain-localizing polypeptides, and can efficiently translocate desired molecules into the brain.

Assume that the position of a sun visor main body is adjusted by an occupant when incident light having the incident angle θ1 has entered a vehicle passenger compartment. Then, a straight line L1 is obtained that passes through the distal end position S1 of the moved sun visor main body and is inclined by the same angle as the incident angle θ1. At this time, the intersection between a straight line Y1, which passes through an eye position P0 of a average sized person and extends along the vertical direction of a vehicle, and the straight line L1 is estimated as an eye position P1 of the occupant. Thereafter, a light blocking control is performed in accordance with the estimated eye position P1.

A sun visor apparatus for vehicle including a wiper apparatus that wipes a wipe area defined on an outer surface of a windshield. A light receiving sensor is arranged in the vehicle compartment facing toward the wipe area. When the windshield is stained by mud or bird feces, this does not interfere with the incident light received by the light receiving sensor as long as the wiper apparatus wipes the outer surface of the windshield. Accordingly, the light receiving sensor outputs an incident light detection signal that accurately corresponds to the incident light. A light shield body is properly extended and retracted in accordance with the incident light detection signal.

The present inventors intravenously administered laboratory animals with molecules in which peptides and colloidal metal particles had been bound, to discover that the molecules translocated to the brain, specifically into cerebral neurons. Since activity to translocate into cerebral neurons could not be observed when the metal colloids were not bound, this activity was suggested to be a property of the colloidal metal particles. Desired compounds can be translocated into cerebral neurons by binding them to the colloidal metal particles. Furthermore, by using as carriers conjugate molecules in which peptides having brain-localizing activity are bound to the colloidal metal particles of the present invention, desired compounds can be delivered into cerebral neurons by intravenous administration.

An exhaust device for a vehicle, such as a motorcycle or scooter, includes an exhaust pipe and a muffler. A first end portion of the exhaust pipe is connectable to an engine of the vehicle. A second end portion of the exhaust pipe is located within the muffler. A secondary air induction pipe supplies air to the exhaust pipe and is connected to a portion of the exhaust pipe located within the muffler. Furthermore, at least the portion of the exhaust pipe to which the secondary air induction pipe is connected is linear. A purification tube member for purifying exhaust gas forms a portion of the second end portion of the exhaust pipe.

A pair of drive gears rotated by a drive motor is meshed with meshing surfaces of a pair of slide guides of a light shield body. A plurality of rotation rollers rotate on roll surfaces of the slide guides and hold the pair of slide guides in a thicknesswise direction of the light shield body. The drive gears have contact portions that come into contact with side surfaces of the slide guides that are arranged to face each other or face opposite directions. Accordingly, a vehicle sun visor apparatus may be reduced in size.

A running gear of a saddle-riding-type vehicle includes a running gear unit with an engine which is pivotally supported to a vehicle body to freely swing, an exhaust pipe extending towards a rear portion of the engine and a support unit for making the running gear unit support a midway section of the exhaust pipe in a longitudinal direction. The support unit includes a first bracket provided on the running gear unit, a second bracket provided on the midway section of the exhaust pipe and a pair of engaging members vertically arranged for engaging a rear end part of the first bracket and a front end part of the second bracket with each other in any relative position in a fore-and-aft direction.
摘要:
A spinel-type LiMn secondary cell has an electrode unit including a positive electrode sheet made mainly of aluminum and coated with a positive electrode active material including lithium and manganese as indispensable constituents. The electrode unit is mounted in a cell casing as a negative electrode by an insulating assembly. A positive electrode member is made of an aluminum alloy with manganese mixed therewith for increased mechanical strength. Since manganese mixed with the aluminum alloy of the positive electrode member is an indispensable constituent of the positive electrode active material, it does not cause an unwanted chemical reaction such as electrolytic corrosion.
