In vivo, drug resistance from a failure to adequately engage in apoptotic programmed cell death leads to a recurrence of cancer and tumours can remain dormant for periods of time before re-emerging as drug resistant metastases. It has been hypothesised that autophagy (Type II cell death) may help cancer cells survive in response to growth limiting conditions, such as nutrient depletion, hypoxia, absence of growth factor, or presence of cytotoxic drug. LiCl is a known autophagy inducer and accelerates cell survival to autophagic programmed cell death. | 01-20-2011 |

20110225013 | CONFERENCE PRODUCTIVITY AND THICK CLIENT METHOD - An automated, or semi-automated system that manages conference attendance to the parties who are really necessary based on, for example, one or more of participation and feedback during previous conference call(s) (and/or on a current call) and the ability to load a thick client for facilitating and coordinating non-verbal communications between conference participants. It could be advantageous for a conference participant to have the ability to indicate non-verbally their interest the conference, rather than disrupt the meeting, thus adding to productivity. It could also add to the utility if a conference coordinator or host could easily keep a record of why attendees drop from the conference, and intelligently apply this record to future scheduling. Another exemplary advantage is to set-up a pre-canned message and coordinate delivery of such messages about participation, interest, and/or status between two or more members (including the host) of the conference call. | 09-15-2011 |

The global conference application uses the XCON standard and/or the CCMP draft standard to subscribe for event notifications for that conference from the remote conference bridge. The received event notifications can be made available for use by the source conference bridge when constructing the roster information for applications executing at the source conference bridge. The received event notifications can be displayed and provide the proper diagram for the distributed conference complete with media, mode, and other information displayed. Further, the system allows the use of intelligent endpoint user interfaces to control mute, lecture mode, sidebars, breaking the bridge into sub-groups, and the like during the conference. | 04-05-2012 |

A running average of the results of past adjustments can be measured and direct future configuration changes. Thus, past successful adjustments can provide a starting point for changes to a new conference and real-time digital signal processing (DSP) adjustments can help tailor changes to the specific conference. | 04-05-2012 |
