摘要:
The invention relates to a drilling tool, especially for percussion drilling, which comprises a cutting element (3) that is configured as a plate (3) or head and that has at least one cutting edge (11) defined by a cutting face (6) and a free face (10). The cutting edge (11) is associated with a first free face section (10a) which is limited in a cutting plane at a right angle to the cutting edge (11) and parallel to the longitudinal axis (L) of the drilling tool (1) by a convex bulge (13) or a convex polygon outline. The vertical height of a rib (14) defined by the first free face section (10a) and an associated first cutting face section (6a) ranges from 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm.

The present invention relates to proteins or polypeptides, referred to herein as isolated and/Or recombinant mammalian (e.g., human) IP-10/Mig receptor proteins designated CXC Chemokine Receptor 3 (CXCR3) and variants thereof, including those characterized by selective binding of one or more chemokines (e.g., IP-10 and/or Mig), and/or the ability to induce a cellular response (e.g., chemotaxis, exocytosis). Antibodies reactive with CXCR3 receptors can be produced using the proteins or variants thereof or host cells comprising same as immunogen.
摘要:
Cytotoxic αβ T cells form an essential component in immunity to infections and tumors, and are also implicated in host defense against these challenges. The present disclosure demonstrates the ability of activated γδ T cells to cross-present exogenous antigens to CD8+ αβ T cells, a process previously thought to be mediated best by dendritic cells. In particular, the present disclosure provides a method for cross-presentation of antigen derived from tumor cell or microbial organisms such as viruses, bacteria, yeasts, parasites, and the like, or from cells infected with such organisms, to a CD8+ αβ T cell. Still further, the present disclosure provides a method for treatment of a tumor or a chronic or recurrent infectious disease, comprising delivering an antigen-presenting autologous γδ T cell population above into a patient requiring such treatment. Still yet further, a method is described for preparing a peptide-specific effector T cell.

A rock drill for hammer drilling machines is proposed, which has a helical shank and a drill head which is connected thereto and on whose end face are arranged a main cutting tip inclined in the shape of a roof and also auxiliary cutting tips disposed transversely thereto. The drill head has two laterally opposite flats for the formation of drilling dust grooves. In plan view the drill head has a very largely rectangular shape in cross section, an acute angle .beta..sub.1 being enclosed between the main cutting tip and the trailing auxiliary cutting tips.

A rock drill for rotary and percussive stressing exhibits equally good or improved transport characteristics of driling dust for a smaller transport groove as compared with prior rock drills. In order to achieve this, a main transport groove having longitudinal profiles is formed, with an interrupted secondary transport groove integrated in the main transport groove, the transport ribs of which exhibit a greater angle of twist than the angle of twist of the main transport groove.

The invention relates to a method for the preparation of efficient antigen-presenting human γδ T cells, to the γδ T cells prepared by such a method, and to their use in immunotherapy, vaccination, vaccine development and diagnostics. Similar to dendritic cells (DCs) in potency and efficacy, these human γδ T cells process antigens and present antigenic peptides to αβ T cells and induce antigen-specific responses (proliferation and differentiation) in naïve αβ T cells. γδ T cells are easily purified from peripheral blood, acquire “maturation” status (expression of essential adhesion, co-stimulatory and major histocompatibility complex molecules) within 1 day of in vitro culture under stimulation and induce strong primary and secondary T helper cell and cytotoxic T cell responses. The γδ T cells may be used in a method of treatment of tumors or chronic or recurrent infectious diseases, in identification of novel tumor or pathogen-derived antigens, and in the diagnosis of the immune competence of a patient.
摘要:
A rock drill which has a cutting tip of roof-shaped design at its front end is proposed. In order to achieve a reduction in the loading of the carbide cutting tip or an increased drilling capacity in particular in concrete, the flanks are subdivided into flank sections in order to achieve a slimmer embodiment of the drill head.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of identifying ligands, and inhibitors (e.g., antagonists) or promoters (e.g., agonists) of receptor function, including methods in which host cells comprising a nucleic acid encoding a CXCR3 or variant thereof are used in an assay to identify and assess the efficacy of ligands, inhibitors or promoters. Inhibitors and promoters of receptor function can be used to modulate receptor activity, permitting selective inhibition of lymphocyte function, particularly of effector cells such as activated T lymphocytes and NK cells for therapeutic purposes.
摘要:
A drilling tool, in particular for rotary percussion drilling preferably of rock, is proposed, with a drill body preferably equipped with cutting tips toward the drilling side and with an axially arranged bore for receiving an exchangeable center drill. In order to carry out easy mounting and demounting of the center drill, the drilling tool is designed in two parts, the center drill being capable of being introduced into the drilling tool on the clamping side.
摘要:
A drill bit is proposed, in particular for the rotary-percussive drilling of preferably rock, concrete or the like, which includes a thin-walled cylindrical drilling body (106) open to the drilling side and a drill-bit base (20) extending essentially radially and having an axially arranged drill-bit shank (101) for fastening the drill bit. The drill-bit base (20) has an outer contour in the radial direction, which outer contour follows a curve shape which has at least one inflection point. Furthermore, a drill bit is proposed whose drill-bit base (20) has an outer contour which passes through a minimum in the radial direction, the drill-bit base being connected in the rising radially outer curve section of its outer contour to the cylindrical drilling body. Further independent features of the drill bit according to the invention are at least one prominence (19) on the inside of the drill-bit base for crushing the material to be drilled, which prominence (19) projects from the contour of the inside, or a cuttings-discharge flute (109) having a variable helix angle on the outer contour of the drilling body (106).
