20100009364Methods for diagnosis, prognosis and methods of treatment - The present invention provides an approach for the determination of the activation states of a plurality of proteins in single cells. This approach permits the rapid detection of heterogeneity in a complex cell population based on activation states, expression markers and other criteria, and the identification of cellular subsets that exhibit correlated changes in activation within the cell population. Moreover, this approach allows the correlation of cellular activities or properties. In addition, the use of modulators of cellular activation allows for characterization of pathways and cell populations. Several exemplary diseases that can be analyzed using the invention include AML, MDS, and MPN.01-14-2010
20100204973Methods For Diagnosis, Prognosis And Treatment - An embodiment of the present invention is a method of generating a report based on an association metric. The method involves identifying node state data associated with a sample, and generating an association metric based on the node state data.08-12-2010
20100297676METHODS FOR DIAGNOSIS, PROGNOSIS AND METHODS OF TREATMENT - This invention is directed to methods and compositions for diagnosis, prognosis and for determining methods of treatment. The physiological status of a cell present in a sample (e.g. clinical sample) can be used in diagnosis or prognosis of a condition (e.g. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia), in patient selection for therapy, to monitor treatment and to modify or optimize therapeutic regimens.11-25-2010
20110059861ANALYSIS OF CELL NETWORKS - The present invention provides an approach for the determination of activation state of a plurality of discrete cell populations and/or the state of one or more cellular networks in an individual. The status of a plurality of discrete cell populations and/or the state of one or more cellular networks can be correlated with the diagnosis, prognosis, choice or modification of treatment, and/or monitoring of a condition03-10-2011

20080317730Compositions Useful for Recovering Original Trophism and Pigmentation, and for Stimulating Growth of the Integumentary Apparatus, Uses and Products Thereof - The present invention relates to compositions and products comprising at least one proteolytic enzyme adapted to promoting the restoration of original trophism of the integumentary apparatus, the original pigmentation and stimulating the growth thereof and, particularly, improving the viability of the pilifer follicles, even in scar tissue areas.12-25-2008
20090181007CULTURE MEDIUM AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION FOR REGENERATING CARTILAGE TISSUE, A METHOD, USES AND PRODUCTS RELATED THERETO - A composition for in vitro use as a culture medium or in vivo use as a pharmaceutical composition or a medical device, capable of accelerating the differentiation of stem cells into cells with a chondrocytic phenotype and of restoring the original trophism of chondrocytes, is described. The composition comprises, in combination, at least one proteolytic enzyme, at least one growth factor and at least one from a sugar, an amino acid, a vitamin factor, a vitamin, a nucleotide and a nucleoside, in a physiologically acceptable carrier or diluent. A method of differentiating stem cells in cells having a chondrocytic phenotype, the cells obtained by the method and their uses, for example in human or animal cell therapy, for example by CBMP (Cellular Based Medicinal products) are also described.07-16-2009
20100092454 NOVEL USE OF ANTIDEPRESSANT COMPOUNDS AND RELATED COMPOSITIONS - What is described is a use of an antidepressant compound, preferably belonging to the class of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), for regenerating the integumentary system and/or for stimulating the growth, the original trophism and/or original pigmentation of the corresponding cutaneous appendages, particularly body hair and/or head hair, in mammals. For this purpose, the antidepressant can be formulated in a cosmetic preparation, a pharmaceutical composition, a medical device, or in the form of a culture medium, alone or in combination with a further active ingredient such as a proteolytic enzyme and/or a vitamin.04-15-2010
20100310544COMPOSITION COMPRISING CALCIUM IONS AND AT LEAST ONE PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME FOR USE IN THE IN VITRO AND IN VIVO REGENERATION OF CUTANEOUS AND CONNECTIVE TISSUES - The invention is based on the finding that calcium ions and proteolytic enzymes, particularly papain, act in a synergetic way in the regeneration of skin and connective tissues. Thus, such a combination of active principles can be used for the preparation of culture media for cutaneous and/or connective tissue biopsies, which allow for the maintenance of the biopsies under viable conditions for periods of over 6 months, even for over 3 years, as well as for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions or medical devices for the treatment of diseases in which the regeneration of cutaneous and connective tissues is beneficial (for instance, injuries and wounds, keloids, paradontopathies, conjunctivitis, nasal and ear polyps, cellulite, human and animal dermatitis), and for the preparation of cosmetic compositions that in particular have an anti-ageing effect on the skin.12-09-2010

20100243643DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING A LOCALIZED INDUCTION HARDENING TREATMENT ON MECHANICAL COMPONENTS, SPECIFICALLY THRUST BLOCKS FOR LARGE-SIZED ROLLING BEARINGS - A device and method for induction hardening rolling tracks of thrust blocks of bearings, according to a required hardening profile. At least two inductors arranged in tandem are used within a track to be hardened, at a predetermined distance from a surface of the track and the thrust block is rotated with respect to the inductors, so as to make them cover the entire track, with a complete 360° turn; the inductors, at least one first pre-heating inductor and one at least heating inductor, are shaped so as to generate a first and a second magnetic fields, respectively, both having flux lines which are perpendicular to each other, and one of the two inductors is mounted on an orientable head so as to be able to arrange the two inductors oriented according to the curvature of the track. The mentioned predetermined distance of the inductors from the track is obtained by using a feeler to accurately detect the geometry of the track and which is introduced between the two inductors and then moved away during the heating steps which are performed sequentially in synchronism with the rotation of the thrust block, and by varying, in a final step, the electric power fed to at least one inductor.09-30-2010
