20140315269 | USE OF RECOMBINANT TYPE III "POLYKETIDE SYNTHASES" (PKS III) OF MARINE BROWN ALGAE - The present invention relates to a method for producing polyphenol compounds, i.e. phloroglucinol or one of its derivatives, with a polyketide synthase of type III (PKSIII) from a brown marine alga. The invention also relates to recombinant nucleic acids coding for a polyketide synthase of type III (PKSIII) from the brown alga | 10-23-2014 |
20140200269 | Combination of a Statin and a Taxane for the Treatment of Gastric Cancer - The present invention relates to a combination of (i) a statin, and (ii) a taxane, for simultaneous or sequential use in the treatment of a patient suffering from solid tumor, e.g. a gastric cancer. The present invention also provides a statin, for use in a method for enhancing sensitivity of a patient suffering from a solid tumor to a taxane. | 07-17-2014 |
20140158124 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE DELIVERY OF CARBON DIOXIDE TO A PATIENT - A method and system for delivering a gas containing carbon dioxide to a patient are described. The method comprises measuring a physiological parameter of breathing stability in the patient; determining an optimal gas delivery parameter based on the physiological parameter of breathing stability; and delivering the gas to the patient in accordance with the optimal gas delivery parameter. | 06-12-2014 |
20130178609 | MODULAR CONSTRUCTION OF LIPOPHOSPHOLIPIDS - The present invention relates to fluorescent and/or targeting lipophilic compounds having the general formula (R1O)(R2O)P(O)—R3-R4-R5 wherein R1 and R2 are each independently a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated C2-C24 alkyl, or a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated C2-C24 monoalkenyl or polyalkenyl, the polyalkenyl having from 2 to 4 double bonds, or a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated C2-C24 monoalkinyl or polyalkinyl, the polyalkinyl having from 2 to 4 triple bonds; R3 is selected from 0, S, —C(R6)2-, —CH(R7)-, —C(S)—N(R6)-, —CH(SR7)-S—S— or —N(R6)- wherein R6 is a hydrogen atom or a C1-C4 alkyl, and R7 is a C1-C4 alkyl; R4 comprises at least one junction function and at least one linker; and R5 is at least one chemical fluorescent group or at least one targeting group. Methods for preparing said lipophilic compounds are also disclosed. | 07-11-2013 |
20130166985 | METHOD OF DETERMINING AT LEAST ONE PARAMETER OF AN ERROR-CORRECTING CODE IMPLEMENTED ON TRANSMISSION, CORRESPONDING DEVICE AND COMPUTER PROGRAM - A method and apparatus are provided for determining at least one parameter of an error correcting code implemented on transmission, termed a “coding parameter”, by analyzing a binary train received. The method implements a first step making it possible to coarsely define said at least one coding parameter, and a second step making it possible to refine said at least one coding parameter. | 06-27-2013 |
20110008415 | NOVEL LIPOPHILIC COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF - New co-lipids for use in combination with lipophilic compounds as nucleic acid vectors, for preparing a nucleic acid vector composition, and methods for introducing in vitro or in vivo a nucleic acid of interest into host cells, including a step of contacting host cells these nucleic acid vector compositions. The nucleic acid vector compositions have the combination (i) of a nucleic acid, cationic, lipophilic vector with (ii) a co-lipid. These nucleic acid vector compositions, in some embodiments, are present in the form of unilamellar or multilamellar vesicles. | 01-13-2011 |
20100311768 | USE OF PURINE DERIVATIVES FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF A MEDICAMENT - The invention relates to the use of purine derivatives in the manufacture of a medicament for treating pathological conditions in which an imbalance between cell division and apoptosis is involved, and more particularly in which excessive apoptosis is responsible for the pathological condition. According to the invention, a purine derivative of formula I is used. The invention finds use in the pharmaceutical field. | 12-09-2010 |
20090316967 | HELP SYSTEM FOR IMPLANTING A HIP PROSTHESIS ON AN INDIVIDUAL - A system and method are provided for helping implant a hip prosthesis in an individual, which includes an acetabulum intended to be placed in the hip bone of the patient and a femoral part intended to be integrally connected to the femur of the individual. The method includes: obtaining, before the operation, images issued by a device that images a human body and locates a position of images in space. The images are taken in at least three reference positions: standing; recumbent; and sitting. Before the operation, the method determines a pelvis version of the individual in different positions by analyzing the images. During the operation, the method measures a position of the acetabulum with relation to the pelvis of the individual, and simultaneously restores information representative of prosthetic mobility of the hip with relation to each of the reference positions, for a current position of the acetabulum. | 12-24-2009 |
