| 20120071541 | Micro-RNA Associated With Rheumatoid Arthritis - An object of the present invention is to provide a novel marker for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and more specifically, to provide a marker whose expression may be specifically increased or decreased in RA. Another object of the present invention is to confirm whether or not miRNA serving as the marker is involved as the etiology of RA, and to provide an inspection method for RA and a therapeutic agent for RA each using the miRNA involved. The marker includes miRNA (for example, miR124 | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120061564 | SURFACE ANALYZER OF OBJECT TO BE MEASURED AND ANALYZING METHOD - A surface analyzer | 03-15-2012 |
| 20110207188 | Scyllo-Inositol-Producing Cell and Scyllo-Inositol Production Method Using Said Cells - An object of the present invention is to provide a cell capable of efficiently producing scyllo-inositol from myo-inositol and a simple method of manufacturing scyllo-inositol using the cell. The above-mentioned object is achieved by a | 08-25-2011 |
| 20110117567 | Micro-RNA Associated With Rheumatoid Arthritis - An object of the present invention is to provide a novel marker for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and more specifically, to provide a marker whose expression may be specifically increased or decreased in RA. Another object of the present invention is to confirm whether or not miRNA serving as the marker is involved as the etiology of RA, and to provide an inspection method for RA and a therapeutic agent for RA each using the miRNA involved. The marker includes miRNA (for example, miR124a) whose expression is specifically increased or decreased in RA synovial cells based on a small RNA expression profile in the RA synovial cells. In addition, the therapeutic agent for RA includes miRNA (for example, miR124a) as an active ingredient. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20110065149 | METHOD OF PRODUCING FUSED PROTEIN - Described herein is a polynucleotide encoding a fusion protein comprising two or more polypeptide domains and a polypeptide linker joining the domains, wherein the sequence of the polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide linker is selected such that when the mRNA transcribed from the polynucleotide is translated in a host cell transfected with the polynucleotide, the translation rate of the mRNA region encoding the polypeptide linker is slower than the translation rate of the mRNA region encoding the polypeptide domain immediately upstream thereof. Also provided are a vector transfected with the polynucleotide of the present invention so that the polynucleotide can be expressed in the host cell; a host cell transformed by that vector; and a process for producing a fusion protein comprising culturing the host cell, and recovering the fusion protein thus produced. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20100156410 | GAS NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE APPARATUS - An NMR apparatus is provided, which is capable of being used for mass spectrometry and structure determination of a gas sample. The NMR apparatus includes: a sample vaporization unit | 06-24-2010 |
| 20090138024 | Surgical Auxiliary Tool for Covering of Exo-Serous Membrane Exposed Tumor and Method of Preventing Dissipation of Tumor Cell Attributed to Intra-Body Cavity Surgical Manipulation Therewith - A convenient surgical auxiliary tool for covering of exo-serous membrane exposed tumor, capable of preventing any man-caused dissipation of tumor cells attributed to surgical manipulation in the digestive organs, etc. There is provided a surgical auxiliary tool comprising a pair of frame members having the respective free end portions rotatably coupled with each other; an accommodation bag having its rim of opening portion fixed to the coupled pair of frame members; and a locking part disposed at substantially the center of the frame members and capable of maintaining the closed state of the pair of frame members. By virtue of this construction, the intestine on the periphery of an area of infiltration of the serous membrane can be pinched by means of the pair of frame members having the respective free end portions rotatably coupled with each other. Simultaneously, the intestine on the periphery of an area of infiltration of the serous membrane can be covered by the accommodation bag having its rim of opening portion fixed to the frame members. Further, the surgical auxiliary tool can be taken out from the body cavity inside to the body cavity outside while surely maintaining the state of covering the intestine on the periphery of an area of infiltration of the serous membrane by means of the locking part capable of maintaining the closed state of the coupled pair of frame members. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090122376 | Optical Information Recorder (Reflection Holographic Memory Device) - A holographic memory in which a disk recording medium having a mechanism for operating an optical pick-up system is used, signal and reference light beams are so coaxially directed as to be opposed, the polarization planes of the signal with each other on the disk recording medium and which is well compatible with existing techniques and high in cost performance when manufactured as a product. The reflection holographic memory comprises random-phase modulation multiplex recording means disposed in the light guide of the signal and/or reference light beams and a spatial-shift multiplex recording means so as to increase the recording capacity. Signals are recorded in the thickness direction of the disk so as to further increase the recoding capacity. That is, by combining random-phase modulation multiplex recording and spatial-shift multiplex recording, the recording density is enhanced tens to hundreds times to improve the recording capacity of multilayer type by using a micro recording area of the reflection hologram. Simultaneously, the encryption effect can be produced by the random-phase modulation multiplex recording. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090099603 | Minimally-Invasive Implant for Opening and Enlargement of Processus Spinosus Interspace and Method of Percutaneously Enlarging Processus Spinosus Interspace Therewith - For the purpose of realizing of a method of minimally-invasive therapy for spinal canal stenosis, it is intended to provide a therapeutic device capable of stationing an interspinous process spacer without the need of large skin incision or ligamentous tissue incision and also without the need of detaching of the paraspinal muscle from the spine. There is provided an interspinous process spacer comprising conoid screw region ( | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090082333 | REMEDY FOR XANTHOMA - A preventive/remedy for xanthoma which contains a compound having an inhibitory effect on squalene synthase, its prodrug or its salt. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20080199884 | Method For Measuring Protozoan Oocyst and Detecting Reagent - The present invention provides a method for measuring oocyst of protozoa, such as | 08-21-2008 |
