摘要:
The present invention provides anti-PCI antibodies having Protein C inhibitor (PCI)-neutralizing activity, and the uses thereof. Through the generation and screening of anti-PCI antibodies, the inventors successfully isolated anti-PCI antibodies which inhibit PCI's inhibitory effect on the production and activity of activated Protein C (aPC). The antibodies of the present invention suppress PCI's inhibitory effect on aPC production and/or the aPC inactivation by PCI, and thus can be used to maintain aPC activity and sustain the effects of aPC physiological activities, such as suppression of the activation of blood coagulation system and anti-inflammatory functions. The present invention also provides uses of the antibodies of the present invention in treating diseases such as thrombosis and sepsis using aPC. In treatments by aPC administration, the therapeutic effect of aPC can be sustained by administering an antibody of the present invention. The antibodies of the present invention can be used in the treatment and prevention of diseases such as thrombosis and sepsis.

An exposure aperture frame defining an exposure aperture includes at least a pivotable partition member with an inclined guide surface on the inner wall thereof which is pivoted by and thereby permits advancement of a film leader to a film take-up chamber so that the film leader can reach a film take-up chamber without any standstill within the exposure aperture frame. The inclined guide surface permits the forward end of the film leader to ride across the partition member. A spring urges the partition member toward a position in which it encloses the exposure aperture frame. That spring also releasably retains the partition member on a shaft on which it is pivoted. The partition member has a platform member extending toward the take-up chamber, which has an opening therethrough that provides access to the spring.

This invention relates to a CCD pulse generator capable of generating a CCD driving signal and CCD output processing signal at accurate timings. The pulse generator includes a digital delay type pulse control section which finely delays a transfer signal for driving a CCD, thereby generating a plurality of delay signals, and changes selection of these delay signals, thereby generating a CCD driving signal and/or CCD output processing signal corresponding to set rise and fall timings, an inverted/non-inverted signal generating section which generates the inverted signal and non-inverted signal of the generated signal, a selection section which selects the inverted signal and non-inverted signal of the generated signal, a blanking section which temporarily disables the generated signal, an output section which has an output enable function and outputs the signal selected by the selection section, and an output signal condition setting section which sets pieces of condition setting information that determine the operations of the respective sections.

A mode change-over device for a mode change-over device for a pre-winding type camera in which, after a loading of a film patrone in the camera and before the shooting, a pre-winding of the film is conducted to fully pre-wind the film on a spool and, when the pre-winding is finished, a mode retaining member is unlocked so as to release a mode change-over member thereby operating a mode change-over switch for a shooting mode, such as to allow an unwinding of the film in a frame-by-frame fashion for each shooting exposure, while the mode change-over member is charged by an opening of a back lid of the camera, the mode change-over device comprising; a counter adapted to operate in response to winding and rewinding of the camera; a retaining member for locking the mode retaining member when the back lid has been opened erroneously or accidentally; and a counter engaging member which prevents the retaining member from locking the mode change-over member when the counter is in the initial position, whereas, when the counter is in the counting position, operates the retaining member for making the retaining member lock the mode change-over member.

There is described a signal controlling circuit particularly used in a printer or copier. The circuit includes a delay chain section to generate a plurality of delayed clock signals, a synchronized signal detecting section to detect a number of delay stages, a total delay time of which is equivalent to a single period of the reference clock signal, based on delayed clock signals synchronized with an index signal and are selected from the plurality of delayed clock signals, an index signal counting section to count index signals inputted into the index signal counting section, a phase shift calculating section to calculate a phase shift amount in respect to the reference clock signal, and a delayed clock selecting section to select a specific delayed clock signal out of the plurality of delayed clock signals in an alternative way, so as to output the specific delayed clock signal to an external section.
摘要:
In a collapsible mount type camera, a transmission pin provided in a lens barrel is movable back and forth as a distance ring or aperture size control ring is rotated. The rear end of the transmission pin is projected rearward out of the lens barrel. The rear end of the pin is integrally fixed to a radially extending lever which extends beyond the periphery of the lens barrel. On the outer end of the radially extending lever abuts a rear end of an intermediate lever pivotally mounted in a camera body. When the lens barrel is retracted into the camera body, the lens barrel with the transmission pin is not obstructed by the intermediate lever.
