20090030082 | SYNTHETIC LIGANDS SELECTIVE FOR LXRbeta OVER LXRalpha, IDENTIFICATION AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - LXR nuclear receptor agonists have been previously shown to increase cholesterol efflux, raise plasma HDL cholesterol, stimulate cholesterol excretion, and reduce atherosclerotic lesions. However, these agonists have also been associated with the unwanted side effect of hypertriglyeridemia. This hypertriglyeridemia appears to be mediated by the LXRα subtype rather than LXRβ, which suggests that LXRβ-selective agonists are attractive candidates for modulation of human lipid metabolism. The present application provides novel LXRβ-selective ligands that preferably modulate LXRβ over LXRα. These ligands may be used to treat a variety of diseases associated with LXR, such as for example lipid metabolism disorders, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer disease, and inflammation. | 01-29-2009 |

The image data is then modified, based on the orientation of the periodic structure, to correlate with, and for comparison to, simulated image data to ascertain parameters of the workpiece. Alternatively, optical components in the measuring system, or the workpiece itself, are adjusted to provide a desired alignment between the optical components and the periodic structure. A microstructure on the workpiece may then be measured, and the resulting image data may be compared to the simulated image data to ascertain parameters of the microstructure. | 06-03-2010 |

20140301676 | Reclosable Packaging - A package reclosing strip includes an adhesive layer that extends the full width of a flexible film strip. Formation of a dry edge on the strip, suitable for grasping by the user, is accomplished either by adhering a strip of material such as a dry tape or by the application of a liquid overcoating which chemically deadens the adhesive. The dry edge tape material is preferably made of mono-oriented polypropylene. The film strip is substantially transparent and includes graphics on the underside, beneath the adhesive coating. The graphics show through the film strip, providing visibility of the graphics from the outside. | 10-09-2014 |
20150266626 | Tape Sealed Recloseable Bag - A bag package for consumable products such as food items includes a lateral slit cut into a front panel of the bag so that the bag can be pulled open along the slit to provide access to the bag contents. The slit is preferably cut along a wavy line which is substantially sinusoidal in nature. The cut line may have a uniform wave pattern or have segments along the slit of different wave lengths. The wavy slit results in a package opening having opposing peaks and valleys along the edges on either side of the opening. When the package is closed beneath a transparent reseal tape the peaks and valleys of the opposing edges of the opening become misaligned and thus provide visual evidence of tampering. | 09-24-2015 |
