20080235687 | SUPPLY CAPABILITY ENGINE WEEKLY POLLER - A method for executing and polling an operational slice of a supply capability engine. The method of polling is designed to query a DB2 table searching for a predetermined, eligible operational slice to process. When an operational slice is detected that is ready to be processed, an entry on a queue is placed, typically to a second DB2 table. The operational slices on the queue are then processed sequentially. The poller monitors the duration of the operational slice, and generates an alert if any of the operational slices placed on the queue exceed an allowable duration. | 09-25-2008 |

20110237645 | USE OF RNAi TECHNOLOGY TO INHIBIT ASIC3 - In vitro studies using cells transfected with acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3) or acid-sensing ion channel 1 (ASIC1) cDNA, demonstrated that the miRNAs against mouse ASIC3 (miR844 and miR847) selectively inhibit mouse ASIC3, but not ASIC1 as detected by protein expression and responses to pH. When the RNAi agents, miR844 or miR847, were used in vivo, delivered into the muscle of mice using a replication-defective herpes simplex viral (HSV-1) vector, primary and secondary hyperalgesia were reduced after carrageenan-induced muscle inflammation. Accordingly, the present invention provides RNAi agents that target ASIC3, methods of preparing such RNAi agents, and methods of using them to modulate in a cell the level of ASIC3 or activity of an ASIC including at least one ASIC3. Modulation of ASIC3 activity or levels can be used for different purposes such as treating pain associated with the expression of ASIC3 and the like. | 09-29-2011 |

20090232910 | Biomarkers and therapeutics targets for cognitive decline - Enrichment of S and Z polymorphisms of alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) in distinct subsets of patients with cognitive disorder (pre-existing affective disorders and APOE2 allele carriers) suggests that AAT variants are potential endophenotypes for Alzheimer Disease and related disorders of cognition, behavior and affect. Such disorders include ADD/ADHD, learning disabilities, ADEM, and susceptibility to brain injury in toxic/chemical/biological/immunological events. In Alzheimer Disease, S and Z alleles affect age of onset and low AAT levels define faster progression rate. Twenty to thirty percent of all dementia patients display AAT and/or We polymorphisms. Effects of AAT may involve inflammation of liver/lung, macrophage activation and iron and lipid metabolism. AAT, its regulation, and iron metabolism represent therapeutic targets and AAT can serve as a biomarker for vulnerability and disease progression. | 09-17-2009 |
