Abstract:
The present invention provides N-(1-(substituted-phenyl)ethyl)-9H-purin-6-amines derivatives that modulate the activity of phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) and are useful in the treatment of diseases related to the activity of PI3Ks including, for example, inflammatory disorders, immune-based disorders, cancer, and other diseases.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to polypeptides capable of modulating odorant receptor activation. In particular, the present invention provides polypeptides (e.g., type 3 muscarinic actetylcholine receptor M3) capable of enhancing odorant receptor activation. The present invention further provides assays for the detection of ligands specific for various odorant receptors. Additionally, the present invention provides methods of screening for polypeptide polymorphisms and mutations associated with odorant receptor activation (e.g., polymorphisms and mutations associated with muscarinic actetylcholine receptor polypeptides (e.g., M1, M2, M3, M4, M5)), as well as methods of screening for therapeutic agents, ligands, and modulators of such proteins.
Abstract:
A refrigeration system for a mobile unit includes a refrigeration loop (32), an air duct (70), a sensor (34) and a shock absorption unit (36). The refrigeration loop includes a compressor, a condenser, a refrigerant regulator and an evaporator (64). The air duct directs air from an air inlet to the evaporator, which air duct is defined by first and second panels. The sensor is disposed in the air duct. The shock absorption unit mounts the sensor to and provides a limited thermal conduction path between the sensor and the first panel (22).
Abstract:
A nanowire structure (10) and device for use in large area electronics and methods of making the same is provided. The nanowire structure (10) includes a nanowire (12) defining an axis (14), where the nanowire (12) includes a first end (16) and a second end (18). The first end (16) is axially spaced from the second end (18). Further, the nanowire structure (10) includes magnetic segments (22) that are coupled to the first (16) and second ends (18) of the nanowire. The structure allows for the alignent and contacting of the nanowire using local or external magnetic fielos.
Abstract:
The present application describes cyclic ß-amino acid derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms thereof, wherein the central core is a non-aromatic carbocycle or heterocycle. Compounds of the present invention are useful as inhibitors of trypsin-like serine proteases, specifically factor Xa.
Abstract:
The invention provides an isolated, novel steroid 5α-reductase enzyme termed SRD5AIIL The protein has an estimated molecular weight of 37 kDa and is capable of converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone at a pH of about 7.0. Also provided is a method for identifying inhibitors of SRD5 AIII by contacting SRD5 AIII with a test compound and measuring the activity of the enzyme. A reduced activity relative to a control indicates that the test compound is an inhibitor of SRD5AIII. A method is also provided for detecting androgen stimulated prostate cancer or recurrent prostate cancer in an individual. The method comprises obtaining a prostate biopsy from an individual and determining the level of expression of SRD5ADI gene or protein relative to a normal control. An increased expression of SRD5AIII relative to the control is indicative of androgen stimulated prostate cancer or recurrent prostate cancer.
