摘要:
The present invention provides screening methods for identifying compounds which induce tardive dyskinesia (TD) when administered to an animal. In particular, the methods involve assaying for intermediates and end products of reactions associated with candidate compound mediated reduction of reducible substrates. Also provided are high-throughput screening methods for determining whether compounds induce TD when administered to an animal. Further, provided are methods for treating psychoses comprising testing antipsychotic drugs to identify those which will not induce TD when administered to an animal and administering one or more such drugs to a patient in need thereof.

The present invention relates to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of pathophysiological conditions associated with amyloid accumulation. Bifunctional therapeutic molecules and contrast imaging agents exhibiting a high affinity for amyloid deposits, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof are described. The invention also provides methods of using these bifunctional molecules, contrast imaging agents, and pharmaceutical compositions for detecting the presence of amyloid deposits using imaging techniques; and for preventing or treating amyloid-related conditions, such as, for example, Alzheimer's disease.
摘要:
Methods of creating patterns on substrates are presented, and articles of manufacture resulting therefrom. One method comprises applying a first surface energy modifier to an applicator to form a coating on the applicator; contacting the coating with a receiving member, the receiving member having a topography, the coating only contacting and remaining on at least some protrusions; exposing the first modified receiving member to a second surface energy modifier, thereby forming a second modified receiving member having surface modified recesses; applying a composition comprising a polymeric material to the second modified receiving member, the composition substantially conforming to the topography of the surface modified protrusions and the surface modified recesses; and contacting the composition-coated, surface modified protrusions with a substrate for a time and under conditions sufficient to transfer the polymeric material on protrusions to the substrate. Because the surface energy of the sidewalls is lower than that on the protrusions, polymer dewetting from the sidewalls is promoted, which makes the polymer film discontinuous along the edges of patterns. Therefore, inked polymer patterns from the protrusions of the mold show very smooth edges and smaller dimensions compared to that of the mold.

The present invention relates to a rapid adjustable wrench, the wrench is provided with a worm rotation window on the lower side of the fixed wrench head, the support holes are provided on the both sides of the window, the support holes are the elongated aperture holes that enable the pin shift can radially moving up and down, the spring locating holes are provided on the lower side face of the elongated aperture holes respectively, the spring holds up the pin shaft to prompt the engagement of the teeth of the worm with the teeth of the adjustable wrench head; the length of the spring after the depress at least ensure that the length of the radial displacement of the worm teeth does not exceed the height of the adjustable wrench head teeth, the adjustable wrench head teeth have at least one tooth on the top end of the clamping face side, which height higher than that of the subsequent other teeth. The invention has a simple structure, convenient to use, holding the handle of the wrench with hands and pinching the worm with thumb and forefinger simultaneously to pull it down, such that it can quickly adjust the opening size of the clamping face, improving the using efficiency of the adjustable wrench; the settings for the different teeth height of the adjustable wrench head, in the case of the adjustable wrench head does not removed when achieve the adjustment of the opening size of the clamping face, reducing the processing operation to the adjustable wrench, saving the expense.
