摘要:
The present invention relates to therapeutic uses of ErbB ligands, including betacellulin. The therapeutic uses include methods of using ErbB ligand family compounds alone, or in conjunction with other agents, for reducing blood glucose levels, treating Type I and Type II diabetes, obesity, muscle wasting diseases, and cardiotoxicity.
摘要:
A removable cartridge for a microparticle sorter. The removable microparticle sorter cartridge may be used with a microparticle sorter to sort and collect microparticles using a series of fluidic channels having a specific orientation and geometry and a series of inlets/ports. By adjusting the flow rates within the channels and applying either positive or negative pressures at the various inlets, microparticles may be sorted based upon a pre-determined characteristic. The disposable microparticle sorter is intended to be used with a corresponding microparticle sorting apparatus.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses for sorting and isolating individual microparticles (e.g., cells) by bulk sorting groups of microparticles into groups containing one or more microparticle having a desirable characteristic (e.g., a label such as a florescent label, shape, size, etc.), and then sorting the individual microparticles with this desired characteristic individual particles.

摘要:
The present invention relates to therapeutic uses of Semaphorin 3F or related proteins. The therapeutic uses include methods of using Semaphorin 3F compounds alone, or in conjunction with other agents, for the stimulation of neuromuscular regeneration, and the treatment of diseases or conditions characterized by muscle denervation and muscle atrophy.
