摘要:
This document relates to methods and materials involved in modulating deubiquitinases (e.g., USP10 polypeptides) and/or ubiquitinated polypeptides (e.g., tumor suppressor polypeptides or mutant versions of tumor suppressor polypeptides). For example, methods and materials for increasing deubiquitinase (e.g., a USP10 polypeptide) expression or activity, methods and materials for decreasing deubiquitinase (e.g., a USP10 polypeptide) expression or activity, methods and materials for stabilizing tumor suppressor polypeptides (e.g., wild-type p53 polypeptides), methods and materials for de-stabilizing mutant versions of tumor suppressor polypeptides (e.g., mutant p53 polypeptides), and methods and materials for reducing cancer cell proliferation, increasing cancer cell apoptosis, and/or treating cancer (e.g., cancers having reduced levels of wild-type p53 polypeptides or cancers having increased levels of mutant p53 polypeptides) are provided. This document also provides methods and materials for identifying agonists or antagonists of USP10 polypeptide mediated stabilization of p53 polypeptides.

Systems and methods are disclosed for determining the location where an image was captured. In general, a device such as a smartphone may capture one or more images from a location, such as images of buildings, street signs and the like, and a central system may compare the submitted images to images in an image library to identify matches. The location of the match may then be provided back to the smartphone.

The systems and methods described herein allow for three dimensional imaging with a medical ultrasound imaging system having an orientation adjustable imaging device. The imaging device can include a transducer array configured to image an imaging field in two dimensions. The imaging device can also include an orientation adjustment unit configured to adjust the orientation of the array in a third dimension. The array can be configured to image the two dimensional imaging field at multiple different orientations. An image processing system can be communicatively coupled with the array and configured to assemble the image data collected across each imaging field at multiple orientations of the array. The assembled data can then be displayed as a three dimensional image.

Overriding a ring back signal involves receiving a ring back signal at a communications apparatus from a communication network in response to a user-initiated connection request. The ring back signal is rendered to a user of the communications apparatus, and a user input is received at the communications device to override the ring back signal. An alternate output is rendered to the user in place of the ring back signal.

The present invention generally relates to medical devices, and more particularly to an improved medical imaging device. In one embodiment, an imaging device includes a drive shaft having proximal and distal ends received within the lumen; and an imaging transducer assembly coupled to the distal end of the drive shaft and positioned at the distal portion of the elongate member. The imaging transducer assembly includes one or more imaging transducers formed with a piezoelectric composite plate using photolithography based micromachining.

The present invention relates to a footbath basin with pressure massage function, which comprising a body of footbath basin (11) and an air massage device (14) which comprises a plentiful of independent airbags. In the body of footbath basin (11), a pump (12), an input, and an air guide control device (13) are connected with the outputs of the pump of the body of footbath basin (11), the air guide control device (13) has a plentiful of outputs, at least two of which are connected with the input/output of the varied airbags of the air massage device (14) through an air tubes (17) respectively. The footbath basin with pressure massage function of the present invention may be cooperated with foot health care, and massage the other parts of the whole body simultaneously, enhance the whole blood circulation, make more effective health, and save time simultaneously.
摘要:
The embodiments described herein provide for an ultrasound imaging device having a piezocomposite transducer. The imaging device is preferably insertable within a living being and configured to image the interior of the living being. The piezocomposite transducer can be formed from piezoceramic and polymeric materials. The piezocomposite transducer can be configured as a single element transducer or as a transducer array having one or more elements. Also provided is a method of manufacturing a piezocomposite transducer and a method of imaging with a piezocomposite transducer.
