摘要:
The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the cell activation of a target cell by an activator, said method having the following steps: provision of a probe measuring device with a probe sample arrangement having a measuring probe and a sample holder; loading of the probe sample arrangement with a target cell and with an activator assigned to the target cell, the measuring probe being loaded with the activator, and the sample holder being loaded with the target cell, or vice versa; relative mutual displacement of the measuring probe and the sample holder until contact is made between the target cell and the activator by means of a displacement apparatus of the probe measuring device; recording of measurement values, indicating binding between the target cell and the activator, for the measuring probe with the probe measuring device during the relative displacement of the measuring probe and the sample holder; and determination of a dimension for the cell activation of the target cell from the measurement values recorded.
摘要:
Functional imaging for localization in biological tissue entails measuring a response in the tissue (240) to electromagnetic radiation. A catheter (200) for real-time monitoring of cardiac ablation is employed to distinguish a hemorrhage zone (232) from the sandwiching necrotic and healthy tissue, or to distinguish exogenous photoacoustic contrast agent from bordering native tissue. A pair of wavelengths is selected for differential absorption (244) of the radiation in, correspondingly, the hemorrhage zone or where the contrast agent exists, and relatively similar absorption elsewhere. Near infrared laser or LED light may be used photoacoustically to serially acquire (S310, S320) the two datasets to be compared, each representative of a time waveform. Alternatively, acquisition is for a pair of wavelength bands of microwave-induced thermoacoustic data. In either case, the members of the dataset pair are combined (110, 122) by subtraction or division to effect the piece-wise cancellation/enhancement for display (218) of the resulting signal in real time.
摘要:

摘要:
Compounds are provided of the following structure are HMG CoA reductase inhibitors and thus are active in inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis, modulating blood serum lipids, for example, lowering LDL cholesterol and/or increasing HDL cholesterol, and treating hyperlipidemia and dyslipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia and atherosclerosis wherein variables A and B are defined herein.
摘要:
The present invention provided a simple three-step approach based on the combinational induction with activin A, all-trans retinoic acid and, optionally, other maturation factors which are able to induce embryonic stem cells to differentiate into insulin-producing cells. A kit used to induce embryonic stem cells to differentiate into insulin-producing cells was also provided.
摘要:
A remote pointing device and keyboard system and method for remotely mimicking the pointing device and keyboard of a personal computing device (such as a laptop or desktop computer) using a handheld computing device (such as Pocket PC or smartphone). Remote control is achieved using Bluetooth wireless technology. A user inputs commands on a touch panel of the handheld device to remotely control the pointing device on the personal computing device. Similarly, the user input data on a keypad of the handheld device to remotely enter keystrokes to the personal computing device, thereby bypassing the keyboard. This allows the user to remotely access the pointing device and keyboard of the personal computing device through the touch panel and keypad of the handheld device.
