20080306081Combinations of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Alpha 7 Receptor Antagonists - Combinations which comprise at least one nicotinic acetylcholine alpha 7 receptor agonist and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of (a) conventional antipsychotics (b) atypical antipsychotics (c) cognition, attention and/or memory enhancers (d) and to use of these combinations in the treatment of psychiatric disorders.12-11-2008
20100035251BioMarkers for the Progression of Alzheimer's Disease - The genetic polymorphism LRRK2 (leucine-rich repeat kinase 2)-T1602S is significantly associated with conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease (AD), with the patients with TT genotype being at greater risk to progress to Alzheimer's disease. The LRRK2-T2352 also showed a trend for conversion to Alzheimer's disease, with the patients with CC genotype tending to progress to Alzheimer's disease. Similar to the APOE-E4 allele, in the presence of a BuChE-K variant, LRRK2-T1602S and LRRK2-T2352 showed a greater association with the rate of conversion from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's disease. In another study with placebo-treated Alzheimer's disease patients, LRRK2-T1602S and LRRK2-T2352 showed a same trend of association. The Alzheimer's disease patients with TT genotype of LRRK2-T1602S or CC genotype of LRRK2-T2352 tended to decline faster on cognitive performance over 6 months, especially in the presence of a BuChE-K variant. The association between the two common LRRK2 polymorphisms and Alzheimer's disease progression shows that LRRK2 may play a role in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis, especially disease progression, and that polymorphisms of LRRK2 can be used as biomrkers of this progression.02-11-2010

20110027165Distributed pre-enrichment method and apparatus for production of heavy water - The present invention provides a process whereby pre-enrichment of water streams using a hydrogen source and a catalytic isotope exchange method at one or more remote sites to supply water with augmented deuterium concentration to a central heavy water. This central heavy water plant could be a Combined Electrolysis and Catalytic Exchange (“CECE”) heavy water production plant or a Girdler Sulfide heavy water plant. The deuterium content of water at the remote sites is increased and provides water stream(s) with augmented deuterium concentration to feed to the central heavy water production plant. This could be a first stage of the central CECE deuterium enrichment plant, increasing its capacity for heavy water production approximately in the ratio of its enrichment above natural deuterium concentrations. By relatively simple utilization of available deuterium enrichment capacity at the remote sites, advantages are achieved from a larger scale of heavy water production at the central production plant. The invention further provides systems and methods for adapting chlorate and chlorine dioxide systems which produce hydrogen to additionally produce deuterium-enriched water.02-03-2011
