Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved process using magnetic particles for inducing cell death which is not dependent on high strength and/or high frequency variation of a magnetic field, and also on the procedure for inducing local or overall temperature rise in a tissue. SOLUTION: Magnetic particles are used in therapeutic applications to disrupt biological materials. The particles have intrinsic magnetization, and this magnetization is stabilized by inherent magneto-crystal line anisotropy and/or shape anisotropy. By applying a magnetic field, the magnetic particles are induced to rotate when localized at a target biological material, thereby disrupting this material. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compound inhibiting the binding of integrin with a ligand and useful in the prevention and treatment of immune or inflammatory diseases associated with inappropriate cell proliferation or migration. SOLUTION: The compound is represented by formula (1) and is exemplified by 3-oxocyclobut-1-enylamino-group-containing methyl(2S)-2-ä(3-oxospiro[3,5]-non-1-en-1-yl)amino}-3-(2,6-dimethoxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)propanoate.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an antibody molecule having specificity for the antigenic determinant of a human tumor necrosis factor α(TNFα), and to provide a curative use of the antibody molecule, and to provide a method for producing the same. SOLUTION: The antibody molecule contains at least one CDR(complementarity determining region) derived from a mouse monoclonal antibody having specificity for the antigenic determinant of a human TNFα. A CDR-grafted antibody wherein at least one of the CDRs is a hybrid CDR is also provided. Furthermore, DNA sequences encoding the chains of the antibody molecules, vectors, and transformed host cells are provided, respectively. Another version of the above antibody molecule covalent-bonded with a methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) residue is also provided. Besides, uses of these antibody molecules in the treatment of diseases mediated by TNFα are provided. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
