Technical Examples
- A method for evaluating a compound to determine the relative or absolute therapeutic capability of a compound to pharmacologically inhibit ischemia induced activation of iPLA2? in an intact myocardium which comprises treating intact myocardium with a compound, inducing ischemia in the myocardium tissue and determining if there has been a change in expression of iPLA2?, its activity or in the iPLA2? regulating network and determining if there has been a change then that the compound is an anti-arrhythmia or myocardial salvage drug.
- A device for enhancing the maneuverability of motorboats and motoryachts includes a high velocity water jet pump (HVWJP) attached to the main engine through an electromagnetic clutch. High velocity water flows from the HVWJP's outlet to bow and stern side nozzles, through solenoid valves, individually controlled from the cockpit. The benefits of the device are that turns and lateral movements will be easier and faster, and extra power for fire fighting and emergency bilge water pumping are also available. Further, if the yacht, while speeding, strikes a rock or other submerged obiect and the propellers and shafts are destroyed, the crew will use the U section pipe to connect the NVWJP's outlet to an auxiliary propulsion pipe, demonstrate to the tug's skipper that his yacht is not a dead ship on the water, and legally claim and pay the towage fee, instead of the far more expensive salvage fee.
- A semiconductor device capable of exchanging fuse data between registers is provided. Fuse circuits 20 to 24 are respectively connected to register circuits 10 to 14, and output fuse data that is stored in the built-in fuses to the respective register circuits 10 to 14. Register circuits 15 to 19 hold fuse data that is transferred from register circuits 10 to 14, respectively. A logic circuit 30 is connected to the output of the register circuits 15 to 19, and using the data held by the registers 15 to 19, calculated information such as whether or not an externally input address matches a salvage address for salvaging defective bits. Register circuits 10 and 11, 11 and 12, . . . , 17 and 18, 18 and 19 are connected to each other, and fuse data is transferred between adjacent register circuits. When doing this, pairs of adjacent register circuits operate such that data transfer is performed according to self-timing handshake logic.
- Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide of extreme importance as a catalyst, reductan, and reactant. It can be depleted intra-cellularly either by forming a direct complex with an electrophilic agent (accomplished investigationally by agents such as bromobenzene or diethyl maleate), by way of inhibition of synthesis, or by subjecting cells to oxidant stress. Most cells, except for epithelia cells, do not have a direct transport capacity for intact GSH. Non-epithelial cells must either transport precursor substrates for GSH synthesis or salvage amino acids from circulating GSH for reuse in intracellular resynthesis. Dietary cysteine is a rate limiting substrate for the synthesis of glutathione and also inhibits GSH efflux. Although GSH is synthesized from precursors in virtually all cells, the liver is the main source of plasma GSH. Protection and support of liver function is paramount to elevating GSH levels. The disclosure is also of a unique combination of nutritional supplements including n-acetyl cysteine, vitamin C, 1-glucosamine, n-acetyl d-glucosamine, quercitin, sylimarin, Alpha lipoic acid and high protein, low fat whey that are combined to support various bodily systems involved in glutathione synthesis, reutilization and storage; all intended to elevate glutathione concentration in the mammalian cell.
