摘要:
A method and apparatus by which function as of a television receiver can be selected simply. A main menu displays the highest level of a hierarchical menu which includes items corresponding to functions of a television receiver is displayed on a left side portion of a screen of the television receiver. When a cursor is moved to the first item of the main menu, while the main menu remains displayed on the screen, a sub menu corresponding to the first item is displayed on a right side portion of the screen. When the cursor is subsequently moved to one of the items forming the sub menu and then a predetermined operation is performed.
摘要:
A method for assessing the proliferation inhibiting effect of a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor is described. In the method, a cytoplasm is separated from a tumor cell to prepare a sample containing various receptor tyrosine kinases. The prepared sample is treated with the inhibitor. The receptor tyrosine kinases in the treated sample, and a substrate for at least two kinds of receptor tyrosine kinases are contacted. The phosphorylated substrate is detected, and the activity value of the receptor tyrosine kinases is measured based on the detection result. The proliferation inhibiting effect is assessed based on the resulting activity value.
摘要:
A method for measuring the activity of a receptor kinase present in a cell membrane of a cell is described. The method comprises steps of preparing a sample containing the receptor kinase by separating a cytoplasm from the cell, contacting the receptor kinase in the sample with a substrate to phosphorylate the substrate with the activity of the receptor kinase, binding a labeling substance to the phosphorylated substrate, and measuring the activity of the receptor kinase based on a result of detection of the labeling substance bound to the phosphorylated substrate.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for judging susceptibility of cancer cells contained in a biological sample to an anthracycline anticancer agent comprising steps of: measuring expression levels of GST-π of cancer cells contained in a biological sample; and judging the susceptibility of cancer cells contained in a biological sample to an anthracycline anticancer agent as high when the expression level of GST-π obtained by the measuring process is high, and a computer program which makes a computer execute the method.
摘要:
A tyrosine kinase substrate is described. The tyrosine kinase substrate comprises a fusion protein which comprises a protein for labeling and a specific peptide fused with the protein for labeling. The specific peptide has an amino acid sequence including a glutamic acid residue and a tyrosine residue. The tyrosine kinase substrate is capable of being phosphorylated by a plurality of kinds of tyrosine kinases.
摘要:
A method for assessing an efficacy of combination chemotherapy, comprising: a first obtaining process for obtaining a specific activity value of Cyclin Dependent Kinase (CDK) 1 and a specific activity value of CDK2 in a biological sample including a carcinoma cell collected from a cancer patient; a second obtaining process for obtaining a GSTπ expression level in the biological sample; and an assessment process for assessing the efficacy of the combination chemotherapy on the cancer patient based on the specific activity values of CDK1 and CDK2 obtained in the first obtaining process and the GSTπ expression level obtained in the second obtaining process.
摘要:
An effect predicting apparatus for predicting an effect of anthracycline anticancer drugs, comprising: a display, a processor, and a memory, under control of said processor, including software instructions adapted to enable the processor to perform operations, comprising: acquiring a CDK parameter based on a first CDK parameter and a second CDK parameter; acquiring an expression level of glutathione; comparing the CDK parameter with a CDK threshold value, and the expression level of glutathione with a glutathione threshold value; predicting an effect of anthracycline anticancer drugs based on the result of the comparison; and displaying the result of the prediction. A computer program product and a method for predicting an effect are also disclosed.
