摘要:
The present invention relates to method and means for treating a vascularized solid tumor using a number of, in vitro prepared, anticellular agent(s)-carrying blood platelets to induce a thrombus formation within the tumor vasculature, and at the same time to deliver a high concentration of an anticellular agent within the tumor. The blood platelets are targeted and attached to the tumor vasculature using in vivo assembled binding complexes, each having at least one binding site specifically binding to tumor cells or to tumor-associated vasculature, and at least one binding site specifically binding to a blood platelet surface. The platelet-mediated thrombus formed within the tumor vasculature leads to occlusion of the tumor vasculature, with ultimate destruction of the centrally located tumor cells. This is followed by destruction or suppressing the growth or cell division of the peripherally located tumor cells, by the anticellular agent(s) carried by the blood platelets.

A rotary ram-out vacuum pump, used for decreasing the pressure of a gas within a space ahead of the vacuum pump, comprising: a stationary casing having at least one inlet passage communicating with the space ahead of the vacuum pump, and at least one exit passage freely communicating with surrounding atmospheric air; a drive shaft supported for rotation inside the casing; and a rotor assembly housed inside the casing and including a plurality of sweeping channels. In operation, gas is rammed out, through the sweeping channels of the vacuum pump, from the space ahead of the vacuum pump to surrounding atmospheric air, and thus decreasing the density and pressure of the gas in the space ahead of the vacuum pump.

A radial out-flowing rotary ram-in compressor for use in gas turbine engines and the like, having a plurality of vanes attached to discs, with the opposing parts of each two adjacent vanes defining a feeding channel in-between. In operation, working gases are rammed through the feeding channels in a generally radially outward direction, followed by positive displacement of the rammed-in gases to a receiver wherein pressurized gases collect. The pressurized gases are actively swept from the receiver by either a successive rotary ram-in compressor or a successive rotary ram compressor.

The present invention provides compound protein molecules for inducing cytotoxic cell-mediated immune response in a mammal against a pathogenic cell displaying an antigen on its outer surface. In a preferred embodiment, the compound protein molecule comprises in sequence: a foreign class I MHC molecule; a linking (Fab) antibody fragment; an alpha-helix shaped chain linker; and a (Fab) fragment of an antibody specific against the antigen displayed by the pathogenic cell. In another preferred embodiment, the compound protein molecule comprises in sequence: a foreign class I MHC molecule; a linking (Fab) antibody fragment; an alpha-helix shaped chain linker; a (Fab′2) fragment of an antibody specific against the antigen displayed by the pathogenic cell; an alpha-helix shaped chain linker; a linking (Fab) antibody fragment; and a foreign class I MHC molecule. Methods for inducing an immune response using these compound protein molecules are also disclosed.

摘要:
A rotary ram compressor for use in gas turbine engines and the like, having a plurality of vanes attached to discs, with the opposing parts of each two adjacent vanes and the opposing parts of the disks' surfaces confined between the opposing parts of the surfaces of the two adjacent vanes defining a channel in-between. Each channel is formed of two successive freely communicating portions: a first diverging inlet portion; and a second constant cross-sectional area outlet portion. In operation, gases are rammed into the first diverging inlet portion of the channel and are gradually displaced to the second constant cross-sectional area outlet portion of the channel, while being diverged, resulting into a rise in the static pressure energy of the gases, followed by smoothening of the stream of flow of the pressurized gases within the second constant cross-sectional area outlet portion of the channel.
