A method and an apparatus are provided for displaying a character string when the character string is being input. The method includes: grouping a plurality of positions for inputting characters into a plurality of position groups; configuring display format of the characters to be input for every position group; and responding to input of the character string, displaying the input character string with the configured display format. The methods and apparatus will facilitate a user reading character strings, and verifying character strings while inputting them.

Inhibitors of AMPA-type glutamate ion channels are useful as biochemical probes for structure-function studies and as drug candidates for a number of neurological disorders and diseases. Disclosed herein is the identification of an RNA inhibitor or aptamer by an in vitro evolution approach and characterization of its mechanism of inhibition on the sites of interaction by equilibrium binding and on the receptor channel-opening rate by a laser-pulse photolysis technique. The aptamer of the invention is a noncompetitive inhibitor of AMPA-type glutamate ion channels, one that selectively inhibits the GluA2Qflip AMPA receptor subunit without any effect on other AMPA receptor subunits or on kainate or NMDA receptors. Furthermore, the aptamer preferentially inhibits the closed-channel state of GluA2Qflip with a KI=1.5 μM or by ˜15-fold over the open-channel state. The potency and selectivity of this aptamer rival those of small molecule inhibitors. Together, these properties make the aptamers of the present invention promising water-soluble, highly potent, GluA2 subunit-selective drugs.

The embodiments herein relate to a method in an optical network unit (103), referred to as an ONU, for providing wireless connectivity capability to the ONU (103). The ONU (103) is comprised in a communications network (100). The ONU (103) is interconnected to an optical line terminal (101), referred to as an OLT, via a wireline communications link (104) and a wireless communications link (113). The ONU (103) is configured to support a sleep mode. The ONU (103) obtains information about entry into the sleep mode. The ONU (103) identifies whether the wireless communications link (113) is activated or deactivated, and activates the wireless communications link (113) if the wireless communications link (113) is identified as deactivated. The ONU (103) enters sleep mode, and provides wireless connectivity capability to the ONU (103) by means of the wireless communications link during the sleep mode.

摘要:
The present invention relates to novel nucleic acid ligands or aptamers that bind to and inhibit the activation of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA) subtype of ionotropic glutamate receptors. Also disclosed is a novel combination of technologies, i.e., SELEX and laser pulse photolysis for the selection and screening of aptamers that inhibit receptor function and are useful therefore, in the treatment of diseases associated with excessive activation of ionotropic glutamate receptors.
