摘要:
Bioactive hydroforming luminal liner compositions are formed of an absorbable crystalline amphiphilic polyether-ester-urethane dissolved in a liquid derivative of a polyether glycol that undergoes transformation into a tissue-adhering, resilient interior cover or liner for the controlled release of its bioactive payload at clinically compromised conduits in humans as in the case of bacteria- and yeast-infected vaginal canals, esophagi, and arteries following angioplasty.

摘要:
Bioactive liquid formulations are formed of combinations of absorbable, segmented aliphatic polyurethane compositions and liquid polyether for use as vehicles for the controlled release of at least one active agent for the conventional and unconventional treatment of different forms of cancer and the management of at least one type of bacterial, fungal, and viral infection.

A solution for notifying a user of alternate means of accessing voicemail data utilize a timer that can be set on a user device upon receipt of a message waiting indicator. When the timer expires, if no data communications connection has been established between the user device and a voicemail server, the user device can present alternate voicemail access instructions to the user. These instructions may be obtained from the message waiting indicator or may be stored on the user device. In another embodiment, a voicemail server sets a timer after sending a message waiting indicator to a user device. The voicemail server sends a message containing alternate voicemail access instructions if no connection has been established between the voicemail server and the user device upon expiration of the timer.

A water-soluble pouch, a process for producing a water-soluble pouch and the use of an electrostatically charged powder for coating film material are provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates to water-soluble pouches comprising film material that is at least partially coated with an electrostatically charged powder. The present invention further relates to a process for producing water-soluble pouches, comprising water-soluble film material, wherein said film is at least partially coated with an electrostatically charged powder. The present invention also relates to the use of an electrostatically charged powder for coating film material.
摘要:
A hierarchy of endothelial colony forming cells (EPCs) was identified from mammalian cord blood, umbilical vein and aorta. A newly isolated cell named high proliferative potential—endothelial colony forming cell (HPP-ECFC) was isolated and characterized. Single cell assays were developed that test the proliferative and clonogenic potential of endothelial cells derived from cord blood, or from HUVECs and HAECs. EPCs were found to reside in vessel walls. Use of a feeder layer of cells derived from high proliferative potential-endothelial colony forming cells (HPP-ECPCS) from human umbilical cord blood, stimulates growth and survival of repopulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Stimulation of growth and survival was determined by increased numbers of progenitor cells in in vitro cultures and increased levels of human cell engraftment in the NOD/SCID immunodeficient mouse transplant system.
摘要:
Germline mutations in the NF1 tumor suppressor gene cause Von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a common genetic disorder of the nervous system characterized by plexiform neurofibroma development. Using adoptive transfer of hematopoietic cells, we establish that NF1 heterozygosity of bone marrow derived cells in the tumor microenvironment is sufficient to allow neurofibroma progression in the context of Schwann cell nullizygosity. Further, genetic or pharmacologic attenuation of the c-kit signaling pathway in hematopoietic cells greatly diminishes neurofibroma initiation and progression. These studies identify haploinsufficient hematopoietic cells and the c-kit receptor as therapeutic targets for preventing plexiform neurofibromas and implicate mast cells as critical mediators of tumor initiation. Administering therapeutically effective doses of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor such as the compound imatinib mesylate to a patient in need thereof to treat tumors in a human patient afflicted with plexiform neurofibroma.
