摘要:
The present invention provides a friction control composition comprising a binder a rheological control agent, and optionally a lubricant. The liquid friction control composition may also comprise other components a wetting agent, a consistency modifier, and a preservative. The liquid friction control compositions may be used to modify the interfacial friction characteristics in sliding and rolling-sliding contact such as steel wheel-rail systems including mass transit and freight systems. A method of reducing lateral force, reducing energy consumption, or controlling friction between a metal surface and a second metal surface by applying the composition to metal surface, for example a top of rail or wheel, is also provided. The composition may be sprayed onto the rail surface.

A system for testing Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs), includes: a controlling computer, an encoder, an IR transmitter, an IR receiver, and a decoder. The controlling computer is for transmitting a test instruction. The encoder is for receiving the test instruction via a port, and encoding the test instruction into an infrared (IR) signal. The IR transmitter is for transmitting the IR signal. The IR receiver is for receiving the IR signal. The decoder is for decoding the IR signal into a Visual Graphic Array (VGA) signal, and transmitting the VGA signal via a VGA port. A related method for testing LCDs is also provided.
摘要:
The invention relates to a screening method to determine the susceptibility of a mammal, preferably a human, to abnormal development of the nervous system and including therapeutic methods and compositions for the treatment of neurodegenerative conditions which result in abnormal expression of a family of polypeptides which induce the apoptotic function of p53.

A method for processing information includes steps of: classifying a plurality of files into a plurality of groups, and each group is represented by one or more displayable images; designating each group according to a hierarchy of the groups; displaying images of one or more groups in a same level of the hierarchy in the form of a first virtual ellipse; locating centers of the displayed first virtual ellipses along a path of a second virtual ellipse; wherein a selected one of the groups in the same level of the hierarchy has its first virtual ellipse displayed in a size larger than that of any other displayed first virtual ellipse, a selected one of the images of the first virtual ellipse of the selected group is displayed in an active area of the first virtual ellipse of the selected group.

The invention provides a transgenic mouse and cell lines with a homozygous disruption of a chromosomal PTEN gene in prostate cells. The mouse progresses from hyperplasia to metastatic cancer and can be used to identify prostate cancer therapeutics and genes that are differentially regulated during androgen dependent and androgen independent prostate cancer progression.
摘要:
The methods and compositions described herein address the need for a diagnostic method that can be provided to patients with early stage lung cancer, especially non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), to determine whether the patient is at increased risk of poor disease outcome. The methods and compositions thus allow for more informed treatment decisions for the early stage lung cancer patient.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods for identifying early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who will have an unfavorable prognosis for the recurrence of lung cancer after surgical resection. The methods are based in part on the discovery that chromosomal copy number gains at Chr19, 34.7 Mb-35.6 Mb can be used for prognostic classification. The methods preferably use fluorescence in situ hybridization with fluorescently labeled nucleic acid probes to hybridize to patient samples to quantify the chromosomal copy number of this genetic locus.

The methods are based in part on the discovery of chromosomal copy number abnormalities that can be used for prognostic classification. The methods preferably use fluorescence in situ hybridization with fluorescently labeled nucleic acid probes to hybridize to patient samples to quantify the chromosomal copy number of these genetic loci.
摘要:
The present invention discloses deuterated benzopyran compounds having structure features as shown in Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or stereoisomers thereof, or prodrug molecules thereof. With excellent anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and the capability to inhibit growth of tumor cells, such compounds are novel COX-2 selective inhibitors. The compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof disclosed by the present application can be applied in preparing anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs and drugs for treating or preventing tumors.
摘要:
The present invention relates to algorithms for use in defining genomic subgroups of tumors and cancer cell lines. The present invention also relates to methods for assembling panels of tumors and cancer cell lines according to genomic subgroups for use in testing the efficacy of one or more pharmaceutical compounds in the treatment of subjects suffering from at least one cancer.
