摘要:
To provide a method of efficiently delivering cells having an anti-tumor activity to tumor tissues to evoke a stronger anti-tumor reaction, and a method of providing a more effective tumor regression effect, both in a cellular immunotherapy for cancer utilizing cells having an anti-tumor activity or antigen presenting cells for activating cells capable of exhibiting an anti-tumor activity. Provided are: a method of treating head and neck cancer, comprising administering an anti-cancer cell composition containing NKT cells activated in vitro with an NKT cell ligand into the tumor-feeding artery, and administering an NKT cell-stimulating agent containing antigen presenting cells treated with an NKT cell ligand through the upper respiratory tract mucous membrane; a use, in anti-cancer treatment of head and neck region, of the anti-cancer cell composition and the NKT cell-stimulating agent; a kit comprising the anti-cancer cell composition and the NKT cell-stimulating agent; and the anti-cancer cell composition.

摘要:
The present invention provides an NKT cell stimulating agent containing antigen-presenting cells pulsed with an NKT cell ligand, to be administered submucosally in the upper airway. By submucosal administration in the upper airway, it is possible to stimulate NKT cells and stimulate immune reactions extremely efficiently with a small number of NKT cell ligand-pulsed antigen-presenting cells. By submucosal administration in the upper airway, NKT cells can be induced selectively in cervical lymph nodes.
摘要:
An image processing portion (1) performs binarization, segmentation, and feature extraction of a received image using a RAM (2), compares the extracted feature with specific pattern data stored in a dictionary data memory (3), performs recognition processing, and provides recognition results to a CPU (4). The dictionary data memory is a volatile memory, in which specific pattern data held by the CPU is written by the CPU when power is turned on. Since the data stored in the volatile memory is erased when power is turned off, the dictionary data memory can be removed and the contents are analyzed when the power is turned off without causing any trouble.
摘要:
A green body molded in a pressurized slip casting machine is loaded onto a pallet and sent to a conveyor. An image of the green body is picked up from above by a CCD camera, and whether the green body is a rectangular tank or a triangular tank is distinguished. When the green body is a rectangular tank holes are made in it by a first holemaking device, and when the green body is a triangular tank holes are made in it by a second holemaking device. After that, water removal, shape correction, deburring and the like are carried out automatically.
