摘要:
The present inventions relate to compositions and methods for treating inflammatory diseases and cancer by administering proteasome inhibitors. In particular, the present inventions provide a new class of orally available non-covalent proteasome inhibitors capable of reducing NF-kappaB for mediating cytokine production in vivo. Further, the use of a small molecular weight inhibitor of the 26S proteasome via a non-covalent type inhibition is contemplated for use as a means to treat NF -kB mediated diseases, including but not limited to multiple myeloma and rheumatoid arthritis.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for forming layers on a target. The apparatus and method employ a direct current plasma apparatus to form at least one layer using a plasma jet containing precursors. In some embodiments, the direct current plasma apparatus utilizes axial injection of the precursors through the cathode (in an upstream and/or downstream configuration) and/or downstream of the anode. In some embodiments, the direct current plasma apparatus can comprise a laser source for remelting the layer using a laser beam to achieve insitu densification thereof.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the formation and processing of nanostructures including nanotubes. Some embodiments provide processes for nanostructure growth using relatively mild conditions (e.g., low temperatures). In some cases, methods of the invention may improve the efficiency (e.g., catalyst efficiency) of nanostructure formation and may reduce the production of undesired byproducts during nanostructure formation, including volatile organic compounds and/or polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons. Such methods can both reduce the costs associated with nanostructure formation, as well as reduce the harmful effects of nanostructure fabrication on environmental and public health and safety.
摘要:
A system is presented for detecting malware applications residing on a mobile device powered by a battery. The system includes a power monitoring module, a data analysis module and a data store that stores a plurality of known power signatures signifying a power consumption anomaly. The power monitoring module measures power drawn from the battery and the data analysis module extracts a power history signature from the power measures. The data analysis module then compares the power history signature with the plurality of known power signatures and initiates a protective operation if the power history signature is closely correlated to one or more of the known power signatures.
摘要:
Anthrax vaccine compositions comprise a segment of a PA toxin protein that stimulates a B cell immune response specific for a defined epitope on the protective antigen of B. anthracis, a pharmaceutical excipient and optionally, one or more other protein segments comprising epitopes that augment the B cell response by stimulating a T cell immune response. The pharmaceutical compositions are useful for vaccinating individuals so as to confer protection from disease caused by B. anthracis including anthrax disease resulting from anthrax spore inhalation.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to photosensitive optoelectronic devices comprising at least one of an electron blocking or hole blocking layer. Further disclosed are methods of increasing power conversion efficiency in photosensitive optoelectronic devices using at least one of an electron blocking or hole blocking layer. The electron blocking and hole blocking layers presently disclosed may reduce electron leakage current by reducing the dark current components of photovoltaic cells. This work demonstrates the importance of reducing dark current to improve power conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cells.
摘要:
The present invention provides systems and methods for monitoring tissue regions. In particular, the present invention provides systems and methods for detecting changes in tissue regions over a period of time. In some embodiments, the systems and methods of the present invention are used to evaluate the effectiveness of a particular treatment of a tissue region. In some embodiments, the systems and methods of the present invention provide a parametric response map approach for detecting and analyzing changes in tissue regions over a period of time to detect and monitor disease or tissue health and to monitor the impact of therapeutic interventions.
