Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110209970SWITCH AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, AND RELAY - A switch and a relay include a contact with a smooth contacting surface. A side surface of a fixed contact faces a side surface of a movable contact. The fixed contact has an insulating layer and a base layer stacked on a fixed contact substrate, and a first conductive layer formed thereon through electrolytic plating. The side surface of the first conductive layer that faces the movable contact becomes the fixed contact (contacting surface). The movable contact has an insulating layer and a base layer stacked on the movable contact substrate, and a movable contact formed thereon through electrolytic plating. A side surface of a second conductive layer that faces the fixed contact becomes the movable contact (contacting surface). The fixed contact and the movable contact have surfaces that contact the side surfaces of the mold portion when growing the first and second conductive layers through electrolytic plating.09-01-2011

20080248041Novel Ligands for G Protein-Coupled Receptor Protein and Use Thereof - The present invention provides a method of screening an agonist/antagonist of a G protein-coupled receptor protein comprising the same or substantially the same amino acid sequence as the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, or a salt thereof, which comprises using the receptor protein or its salt and a ligand or its salt; and so on. The screening method of the present invention is useful for screening an agent for the prevention/treatment of nervous system diseases or neuropathic pains.10-09-2008
20080305110Novel Ligand of G Protein Coupled Receptor Protein and Use Thereof - The present invention provides a method of screening an agonist or antagonist to a G protein-coupled receptor protein comprising the same or substantially the same amino acid sequence as the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, or a salt thereof, which comprises using the receptor protein or a salt thereof and the ligand or a salt thereof; etc. The present invention is useful for screening agents for the prevention/treatment of, e.g., leukopenia, leukemia, lymphoma, malignant tumor, ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disorders, tonsil disorders, collagen disease, inflammatory disease, leukocytosis, heart failure, inherited muscle disorders, muscular dystrophy, neuromuscular degenerative disease, myocardial infarction, obesity, mellitus diabetes, hyperlipemia, arteriosclerosis, metabolic syndrome, thrombocytopenia, thrombocytosis, cancer, pulmonary edema, multiple organ failure, etc.12-11-2008
20090232771Method of controlling cell functions - The present invention provides methods of screening genes associated with cell regeneration, growth and differentiation and regulators for cell regeneration, growth or differentiation; regulators for cell regeneration, growth or differentiation; and so on. More specifically, the present invention provides methods of screening genes associated with cell regeneration, growth and differentiation, which comprises the step of quantitatively analyzing expression levels of multiple genes collectively in a cell having a regeneration, differentiation or growth capability to thereby identify the genes associated with the regeneration, growth or differentiation of the cell; methods of screening genes associated with cell regeneration, growth and differentiation, which comprises the step of quantitatively analyzing expression levels of multiple genes collectively in a cell having a regeneration, differentiation or growth capability to thereby identify one or more genes that show higher expression levels in the cell or are specific in expression as compared to the other cells; and, the step of contacting at least one candidate substance capable of regulating the functions of the identified genes or their gene products with the cell and comparing changes before and after the contact; and so on.09-17-2009
