20100317594Methods for treating breast cancer using NRIF3 related molecules - Disclosed herein is the discovery that administration of the NRIF3 family of transcriptional coregulators (NRIF3 and related molecules) to breast cancer cells induce rapid and profound apoptosis (nearly 100% cell death within 24 h). A novel death domain (DD1) was mapped to a short 30 amino acid region common to all members of the NRIF3 family. Two other death domains (DD2 and DD3) were also found to have effective breast cancer killing activities. Mechanistic studies showed that DD1-induced apoptosis occurred through a novel caspase-2 mediated pathway that involved mitochondria membrane permeabilization but did not require other caspases. Interestingly, cytotoxicity of NRIF3 related molecules was cell-type specific, as they selectively killed breast cancer or related cells but not other examined cells of different origins, suggesting the presence in breast cancer cells of a specific death switch that can be selectively triggered by NRIF3 and related molecules. Also disclosed are strategies utilizing NRIF3 related molecules and/or targeting this death switch for the development of novel and more selective therapeutics against breast cancer.12-16-2010

20080287635Latex Adhesives Derived From Ionic Strength Induced Soy Protein Complexes - Macro hydrophobic clusters and complexes of soybean globular proteins were observed using TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope). Upon unfolding, hydrophobic groups of the proteins became exposed toward the surface of the protein and actively interacted with other hydrophobic groups of other protein molecules, thereby forming hydrophobic bonding. The hydrophobic bonding resulted in hydrophobic protein clusters, the formation of which was affected by the degree of protein unfolding, protein structure, and hydrophobic components. Such hydrophobic clusters followed the global minimum free energy theory and formed spherical like structures with diameters ranging from 100 nm to 3000 nm. Such an understanding lends applicability to many uses in adhesives, molding composites, surfactants for oil-water systems, bio-based interior construction paints and paper coatings, fiber production, and metal powder molding applications.11-20-2008

20120034895Circuit and Method for Peak Detection with Hysteresis - In a communication system, the signal received or transmitted is required to be maintained within a range for proper operation. For example, a radio frequency signal received from an antenna is usually amplified by a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with adjustable gain. The input RF signal is properly amplified by the LNA further processing by subsequently receive path of the receiver. A peak detector may be used to detect the peak amplitude of the amplified input and provides a proper gain for the LNA. The detected peak amplitude may be affected by the noises which may inadvertently cause the gain control to fluctuate randomly. In order to avoid the above issues, some hysteresis has to be built into the peak detection so that the gain control will not be so sensitive to the noise. The present invention discloses a system and method for peak detection with accurate hysteresis. The peak detection uses a high threshold path and a low threshold path to derive the high and low thresholds for gain control with hysteresis. The high threshold path and the low threshold path use pre-amplifiers with different gain factors to amplify low level signals to overcome the non-linearity issue of input-output transfer characteristic of the peak detectors and consequently results in a peak detection system with accurate hysteresis.02-09-2012
