摘要:
The present invention relates to use of compounds directed to inhibiting expression and/or proteolytic processing semaphorins SEMA3E and/or sema3E and/or activation of a receptor by a proteolytic product of said semaphorins for the manufacture of a medicament for prevention, treatment diagnosis and/or prognosis of an invasive disease. The invention features the compounds selected from the group comprising antisense compounds derived from the sequence of SEMA3E and/or sema3E, peptide compounds derived from the sequence of said semaphorins, anti-bodies against said semaphorins, and peptide compounds derived from the sequence of Plexin A receptor. Furthermore, the invention provides methods for prognosis and/diagnosis of malignancy of cancer based of estimation of the levels of expression and proteolytic processing of said semaphorins in a sample of a tissue or body fluid. The invention also concerns a method for producing an attractant polypeptide by establishing a cleavage product of SEMA3E. and/or sema3E.
摘要:
Barley based beverages are produced in large quantities, employing highly energy consuming methods, for example in the malting and brewhouse facilities for kiln drying and wort boiling operations, respectively. The present invention relates to energy saving methods for preparing barley based beverages, as well as to barley plants useful in such methods. In particular, the invention describes barley plants with combined traits of null-lipoxygenase-1 (null-LOX-1), null-lipoxygenase-2 (null-LOX-2) and null-S-adenosylmethionine:methionine S-methyltransferase in one plant, which is particularly useful for energy saving methods to prepare barley based beverages, such as beer.
摘要:
According to the invention, there is provided barley with total loss of functional lipoxygenase (LOX)-1 and LOX-2 enzymes, and plant products produced thereof, such as malt manufactured by using barley kernels defective in the synthesis of the fatty acid-dioxygenating enzymes LOX-1 and LOX-2. Said enzymes account for the principal activities related to dioxygenation of linoleic acid into 9- and 13-hydroperoxy octadecadienoic acid, respectively. 9-Hydroperoxy octadecadienoic acid represents a LOX pathway metabolite, which—through further enzymatic or spontaneous reactions—may lead to the appearance of trans-2-nonenal (T2N). The invention enables brewers to produce a beer having insignificant levels of stale, T2N-specific off-flavors, even after prolonged storage of the beverage.

摘要:
According to the invention, there is provided barley-derived beverages characterized by notably reduced levels of both dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and/or its precursor S-methyl-L-methionine (SMM), or lacking said compounds. In addition, the invention relates to methods for producing the above-mentioned beverages—and also to barley plants useful in the preparation of such beverages, as well as other plant products prepared from said plants. Utilization of the invention clears the way for making improved production procedures of beverages with improved taste profiles, and promises also for notable reductions in the thermal energy input for production of beer.

The present invention relates to implants used for alleviating and/or preventing conditions relating to damaged joints involving articulating surfaces. The implants comprise fibre of polymer and/or metal, and can be used as an artificial joint, as part of an artificial joint or as an artificial joint spacer made to replace the missing cartilage or to improve the slidability between two natural and/or artificial components of the body, or between a natural and artificial component. The product of the invention can be used to partly or entirely coat medical products or to make up implant partly or entirely.
