摘要:
A method for treating symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease by administering an effective amount of a compound, racemate, isolated R or S enantionmer, solvate, hydrate or salt having the formula: X--terminal heterocyclic moiety. In the above formula, the terminal heterocyclic moiety is a 3,7-dimethylxanthinyl, 3-methylxanthinyyl or xanthinyl moiety and X is: ##STR1## n is zero or an integer from one to four; and m is an integer from seven to fourteen. For compounds useful in the inventive method, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen, a straight or branched chain alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl of up to twenty carbon atoms in length or --(CH.sub.2).sub.w R.sub.5. w may be an integer from one to twenty and R.sub.5 is preferably an hydroxyl, halo C.sub.1-8 alkoxyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted carbocycle or heterocycle. R.sub.3 in compounds useful in the inventive method may be either an hydroxyl group, an oxygen atom, the single bond represented being instead a double bond, or --O--R.sub.4, R.sub.4 being a C.sub.1-6 oxoalkyl.

摘要:
A polyanionic polymer can improve the bioactivity and water-solubility properties of a drug to which it is joined. The inventive method provides a monodispersed preparation of a recombinantly-produced polyanionic polymer that can be easily manipulated, such as lengthened. An active moiety may be chemically or recombinantly joined to a polyanionic polymer to increase its biological half-life and/or solubility. The instant invention also provides a method for targeting the delivery of a polyanionic polymer conjugate or fusion protein to a specific cell type or tissue.

摘要:
A method and system for designing an impingement film floatwall panel system for a combustion chamber for a gas turbine engine comprising the steps of creating an impingement film floatwall panel knowledge base of information. The knowledge base has a plurality of design rule signals with respect to a corresponding plurality of parameter signals of associated elements of impingement film floatwall panels for a combustion chamber, wherein the knowledge base comprises at least one data value signal for each one of the plurality of design rule signals. The steps also include entering a desired data value signal for a selected one of the plurality of parameter signals of an associated element of the impingement film floatwall panels and comparing the entered desired data value signal for the selected one of the plurality of parameters with the corresponding at least one data value signal in the knowledge base for the corresponding one of the plurality of design rule signals. If the result of the step of comparing is such that the entered desired data value signal for the selected one of the plurality of parameter signals is determined to have a first predetermined relationship with respect to the corresponding at least one data value signal in the knowledge base for the selected one of the plurality of design rule signals, create signals representative of a geometric representation of the selected one of the plurality of parameter signals of the associated element of the impingement film floatwall panels.
摘要:
Polypeptides are obtained, for example, via expression of encoding cDNA sequences, that have the activity of the enzyme lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase (LPAAT), also known as 1-acyl sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase.
摘要:
The activity of growth-associated receptors is modulated in vivo in a controlled and reproducible fashion by immunizing animals against target growth-associated receptors. This is accomplished by the use of immunogens predetermined to induce primarily agonist or antagonist responses. The immunogens include anti-ligand antibodies and receptor derivatives.
