US Patent:

7662795, Feb 16, 2010

Filed:

Aug 8, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/523899

Inventors:

Ronald Rodriguez - Glenwood MD, US
Ying Li - Gibson Island MD, US

Assignee:

The Johns Hopkins University - Baltimore MD

International Classification:

A61K 31/70
C12N 15/74

US Classification:

514 44, 4353201, 435 914

Abstract:

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for enhancing the oncolytic activity of replication-competent, target cell-specific adenovirus vectors by modification of the E1A gene product. The target cell-specific replication-competent adenovirus vectors comprise a chimera of an adenovirus gene essential for replication, preferably an early gene, and the Androgen receptor (or a portion thereof) under the transcriptional control of a cell type-specific transcriptional regulatory element (TRE). By providing for cell type-specific transcription through the use of one or more cell type-specific TREs, the adenovirus vectors effect prostate-specific cytotoxicity due to selective replication.

International Classification:

G01V 7/00

US Classification:

73382 G

Abstract:

An method and apparatus for measuring gravitational force are described where at least one first radiation can be provided to at least one optomechanical oscillator, the at least one optomechanical oscillator being structured to deform under the gravitational force to cause a shift in resonance associated with the at least one optomechanical oscillator. In addition, at least one second radiation is received from the at least one optomechanical oscillator, wherein the at least one second radiation is associated with the shift in the resonance, and the shift in the resonance can be determined based on the first and second radiations.

Abstract:

The present disclosure describes techniques for projecting person-level viewership from household-level tuning events. One example method includes accessing tuning data representing television tuning events associated with particular households; accessing panelist viewing data representing television viewing events associated with panelists; and for at least one tuning event represented by the tuning data: accessing household member data associated with the tuning event; determining a member minutes value associated with each individual member of the particular household for the tuning event; and determining a fractional viewership value for each individual member of the particular household associated with the tuning event.
