| 20110293840 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FABRICATING A DIRECT METAL DEPOSITION STRUCTURE HAVING FULLY FORGED STRUCTURAL QUALITIES - A method for fabricating a direct metal deposition (DMD) structure having substantially fully forged structural qualities is provided. In various embodiments, the method includes depositing a layer of metallic material onto an existing metallic structure having a microstructure that provides the existing metallic structure with substantially fully forged structural qualities. The DMD layer has a microstructure that provides the DMD layer with non-forged structural qualities. The method additionally includes applying a friction stir process to the deposited DMD layer utilizing a friction stir device such that the deposited DMD layer and at least a DMD affected zone of the existing metallic structure are friction stirred to refine and homogenize the microstructure of the deposited DMD layer and at least the DMD affected zone of the existing metallic structure, thereby producing a non-forged aggregate structure having a microstructure that provides the aggregate structure substantially fully forged structural qualities. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20120116056 | Fc fusion proteins of human growth hormone - Fc fusion proteins of human growth hormone with good biological activities relative to rhGH on a molar basis are disclosed. The hGH-L-vFc fusion protein comprises hGH, a flexible peptide linker of about 20 or fewer amino acids, and a human IgG Fc variant. The Fc variant is of a non-lytic nature and shows minimal undesirable Fc-mediated side effects. A method is also disclosed to make or produce such fusion proteins at high expression levels. Such hGH-L-vFc fusion proteins exhibit extended or prolonged serum half-life and/or good biological activities relative to that of rhGH on a molar basis, leading to improved pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, thus fewer injections will be needed within a period of time. | 05-10-2012 |
