| 20110274120 | NETWORK DATA PACKET FRAMENTATION AND REASSEMBLY METHOD - The method determines whether a particular jumbo data packet benefits from fragmentation and reassembly management during communication through a network or networks. The method determines the best communication path, including path partners, between a sending information handling system (IHS) and a receiving IHS for the jumbo packet. A packet manager determines the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size for each path partner or switch in the communication path including the sending and receiving IHSs. The method provides transfer of the jumbo packets intact between those path partner switches of the communication path exhibiting MTU sized for jumbo or larger packet transfer. The method provides fragmentation of jumbo packets into multiple normal packets for transfer between switches exhibiting normal packet MTU sizes. The packet manager reassembles multiple normal packets back into jumbo packets for those network devices, including the receiving IHS, capable of managing jumbo packets. | 11-10-2011 |

| 20110177038 | Inhibition of Tumor Growth via Peroxiredoxin 3 - Deregulated expression of the c-Myc transcription factor is found in a wide variety of human tumors. Because of this significant role in oncogenesis, considerable effort has been devoted to elucidating the molecular program initiated by deregulated c-myc expression. The primary transforming activity of Myc is thought to arise through transcriptional regulation of numerous target genes. Thus far, Myc target genes involved in mitochondrial function have not been characterized in depth. Here, we describe a nuclear c-Myc target gene, PRDX3, which encodes a mitochondrial protein of the peroxiredoxin gene family. Expression of PRDX3 is induced by the mycER system and is reduced in c-myc−/− cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis spanning the entire PRDX3 genomic sequence reveals that Myc binds preferentially to a 930-bp region surrounding exon 1. We show that PRDX3 is required for Myc-mediated proliferation, transformation, and apoptosis after glucose withdrawal. Results using mitochondria-specific fluorescent probes demonstrate that PRDX3 is essential for maintaining mitochondrial mass and membrane potential in transformed rat and human cells. These data provide evidence that PRDX3 is a c-Myc target gene that is required to maintain normal mitochondrial function. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20110311500 | COMBINATION BACTERIOLYTIC THERAPY FOR THE TREATMENT OF TUMORS - Current approaches for treating cancer are limited, in part, by the inability of drugs to affect the poorly vascularized regions of tumors. We have found that spores of anaerobic bacteria in combination with agents which interact with microtubules can cause the destruction of both the vascular and avascular compartments of tumors. Two classes of microtubule inhibitors were found to exert markedly different effects. Some agents that inhibited microtubule synthesis, such as vinorelbine, caused rapid, massive hemorrhagic necrosis when used in combination with spores. In contrast, agents that stabilized microtubules, such as the taxane, docetaxel, resulted in slow tumor regressions that killed most neoplastic cells. Remaining cells in the poorly perfused regions of tumors could be eradicated by sporulated bacteria. Mechanistic studies showed that the microtubule destabilizers, but not the microtubule stabilizers, radically reduced blood flow to tumors, thereby enlarging the hypoxic niche in which spores could germinate. A single intravenous injection of spores plus selected microtubule-interacting agents was able to cause regressions of several tumors in the absence of excessive toxicity. | 12-22-2011 |

Each identified random error and each identified repeat error occurring in a time interval is counted. An alert is generated in response to a number of identified random errors reaching a random-error threshold or a number of identified repeat errors reaching a repeat-error threshold during the predefined interval. The repeat-error threshold is set lower than the random-error threshold. A hashing process may be applied to the memory address of each detected error to map the location of the error in the memory system to a corresponding location in an electronic table. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120102367 | Scalable Prediction Failure Analysis For Memory Used In Modern Computers - One embodiment provides a method for scalable predictive failure analysis. Embodiments of the method may include gathering memory information for memory on a user computer system having at least one processor. Further, the method includes selecting one or more memory-related parameters. Further still, the method includes calculating based on the gathering and the selecting, a single bit error value for the scalable predictive failure analysis through calculations for each of the one or more memory-related parameters that utilize the memory information. Yet further, the method includes setting, based on the calculating, the single bit error value for the user computer system. | 04-26-2012 |

| 20100113637 | IRRADIATED POLYOLEFIN COMPOSITION COMPRISING A NON-PHENOLIC STABILIZER - The present subject matter relates generally to polymer compositions, and more particularly to irradiated polymer compositions comprising at least one non-phenolic stabilizer. The present polymer compositions comprise an unexpected balance of properties after being subjected to irradiation treatments, including an unexpected combination of a lower melt flow rate ratio (MFR | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100168267 | Process for producing high melt strength polypropylene - The present subject matter relates to processes for irradiating visbroken propylene polymer compositions or extrudates of propylene polymer compositions containing a propylene polymer having a low polydispersity index and a non-phenolic stabilizer. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20120083612 | DIRECT EPOXIDATION CATALYST - The invention is a process for epoxidizing an olefin with hydrogen and oxygen in a solvent comprising acetonitrile in the presence of an quinone-acid salt and a catalyst comprising a titanium zeolite and a noble metal. The process results in higher productivity and improved selectivity to propylene oxide from hydrogen and oxygen, as compared to processes that use only a quinone. | 04-05-2012 |

| 20110053994 | POTENT IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE AGENTS, DERIVATIVES AND USES - Provided herein include compositions, all related stereoisomers as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts provided as simplified analogs of pateamine A, in which the analogs generally are devoid of the C3-amino and C5-methyl groups, also referred to as desmethyl, desamino-pateamine A. Suitable analogs provide anticancer and antiproliferative effects in vivo and in vitro by a novel drugs mechanism of action described herein for pateamine A, including inhibition of eIF4A-dependent translation initiation. As with pateamine A, as described herein, suitable analogs cause cell cycle arrest or induce apoptosis in transformed cells. However, toxicity of such compounds to slow growing normal cells is low. In addition, such analogs, like pateamine A, target translation initiation factors and are useful as anticancer and antiproliferative agents in subjects in need thereof. Moreover, the analogs, like pateamine A, are valuable molecular probes for evalutaion of eukaryotic translation initiation and as lead compounds for development of improved anticancer agents. | 03-03-2011 |
