Abstract: A clip assembly mounts a cladding panel to a body. The clip assembly includes a clip and a key guide. The clip has a head and a shaft. The head is adapted for attaching to a flange of the cladding panel. The key guide has a hollow body sized to receive and retain the shaft in a first and second engagement position. The key guide is configured to be inserted into a slot on the body structure and upon rotation is retained within the slot. One end of the cladding engages the pilot aperture and an opposite end engages a slot. The cladding is adjustable relative to the body structure while in a first engagement position and is held in place for further fastening when in a second engagement position.

Abstract: The present invention includes methods of performing ex vivo expansion of gene-modified hematopoietic stem cells which are useful for many applications involving bone marrow transplantation and ex vivo gene therapy. The present invention further includes the gene-modified hematopoietic stem cells that are used and produced by such methods. Such gene-modified hematopoietic stem cells can also contain a second heterologous gene. In addition, the present invention also includes methods of engrafting the gene-modified hematopoietic stem cells of the present invention into animals, including for ex vivo gene therapy and for reconstitution of hematopoietic cells in ablated mammals. The present invention also provides a method of isolating stem cells.

Abstract: A clip assembly (36, 60) mounts a cladding panel to a body. The clip assembly includes a clip (36) and a key guide (60). The clip (36) has a head (38) and a shaft (40). The head (38) is adapted for attaching to a flange of the cladding panel. The key guide (60) has a hollow body (62) sized to receive and retain the shaft (40) in a first and second engagement position. The key guide (60) is configured to be inserted into a slot (52, 56) on the body structure and upon rotation is retained within the slot. One end of the cladding engages the pilot aperture (56) and an opposite end engages a slot (52). The cladding is adjustable relative to the body structure while in a first engagement position and is held in place for further fastening when in a second engagement position.
