    Abstract: A solid/liquid phase process for the separation and recovery of an anionic dye from an aqueous solution is disclosed. The solid phase comprises separation particles having surface-bonded poly(ethylene glycol) groups, whereas the aqueous solution from which the anionic dye molecules are separated contains a poly(ethylene glycol) liquid/liquid biphase-forming amount of a dissolved lyotropic salt. After contact between the aqueous solution and separation particles, the anionic dye is bound to the particles. The bound anionic dye molecules are freed from the separation particles by contacting the anionic dye-bound particles with an aqueous solution that does not contain a poly(ethylene glycol) liquid/liquid biphase-forming amount of a dissolved lyotropic salt to form an aqueous anionic dye solution whose anionic dye concentration is preferably higher than that of the initial dye-containing solution.

    Abstract: It is provided a method for reducing the incidence of colon cancer by administering a nutrient supplement. The method comprises administering to a subject an effective amount of a non-calcemic analogue of vitamin D3 prior to and subsequent to the initiation of tumorigenesis. The present studies demonstrate that dietary supplementation with one such analogue, 1 alpha ,25-dihydroxy-16-ene-23-yne-26,27-hexafluorocholecalciferol, can inhibit the development of colonic tumors in mammals. Moreover, this synthetic analogue of 1 alpha ,25(OH)2D3 appears to be well-tolerated by the animals, and does not induce hypercalcemia or alterations in the serum levels of phosphorus, 25(OH)D3, or 1,25(OH)2D3.

    Abstract: A method and system for the automated detection of lesions in the medical images. Medical images, such as mammograms are segmented and optionally processing with peripheral enhancement and/or modified median filtering. A modified morphological open operation (104-106) and filtering with a modified mass filter (107-109) are performed for the initial detection of circumscribed lesions. Then, the lesions are matched using a deformable shape template with Fourier descriptors (110-112). Characterization of the match is done using simulated annealing, and measuring the circularity and density characteristics of the suspected lesion. The procedure is performed iteratively at different spatial resolution in which at each resolution step a specific lesion size is detected. The detection of the lesion leads to a localization of a suspicious region and thus the likelyhood of cancer.

    Abstract: The binding specificity of the murine OKT3 has been transferred into a human antibody framework in order to reduce its immunogenicity. "Humanized" anti-CD3 mAbs, such as gOKT3-5 and gOKT3-7, have been shown to retain, in vitro, all the properties of native OKT3, including T cell activation which has been correlated, in vivo, with the severe side-effects observed in transplant recipients after the first administration of the mAb. Disclosed are modified versions of humanized anti-CD3 mAbs that do not have the property of T cell activation. Further disclosed are methods of using such mAbs.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a series of nucleic acid probes for use in diagnosing and monitoring certain types of leukemia using, e.g., Southern and Northern blot analyses and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). These probes detect rearrangements, such as translocations involving chromosome band 11q23 with other chromosomes bands, including 4q21, 6q27, 9p22, 19p13.3, in both dividing leukemic cells and interphase nuclei. The breakpoints in all such translocations are clustered within an 8.3 kb BamHI genomic region of the MLL gene. A novel 0.7 kb BamH1 cDNA fragment derived from this gene detects rearrangements on Southern blot analysis with a single BamHI restriction digest in all patients with the common 11q23 translocations and in patients with other 11q23 anomalies. Northern blot analyses are presented demonstrating that the MLL gene has multiple transcripts and that transcript size differentiates leukemic cells from normal cells. Also disclosed are MLL fusion proteins, MLL protein domains and anit-MLL antibodies.
