  • Publication number: 20240175450
    Abstract: Jet pump clamps fit to modified jet pump assemblies at the riser pipe-restrainer bracket junction. The clamp can secure the restrainer bracket and riser pipe, relieving any welds between the same stress in the same, while preventing the restrainer bracket from moving. The clamp may include multiple members on either side of the restrainer bracket that fit into surfaces of the riser pipe. When these members are drawn together through clamping action, the underlying riser pipe is compressed. Similarly, vertically-adjustable members may seat into and/or through the restrainer bracket to hold the bracket steady. Jet pump assemblies may be prepared by forming grooves in the riser pipe and hole(s) in the restrainer bracket(s) and spherical indentations about the same. Clamps may then be installed on the grooves and through the hole(s) at installation or during a maintenance outage in a commercial nuclear power plant.

  • Publication number: 20220249421
    Abstract: Disclosed are novel methods for the therapeutic treatment of cancer and angiogenesis. The enzyme Ape1/Ref-1, via its redox function, enhances the DNA binding activity of transcription factors that are associated with the progression of cancer. The present disclosure describes the use of agents to selectively inhibit the redox function of Ape1/Ref-1 and thereby reduce tumor cell growth, survival, migration and metastasis. In addition, Ape1/Ref-1 inhibitory activity is shown to augment the therapeutic effects of other therapeutics and protect normal cells against toxicity. Further, Ape1/Ref-1 inhibition is shown to decrease angiogenesis, for use in the treatment of cancer as well other pathologic conditions of which altered angiogenesis is a component.

  • Patent number: 11351130
    Abstract: Methods of reducing neuronal sensitivity, thereby reducing inflammation and chronic pain, in subjects having diabetes are disclosed herein. Particularly disclosed are methods of administrating the apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 redox factor 1 (APE 1/Ref-1) inhibitor, APX3330, to enhance the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway, thereby reducing neuronal sensitivity to inflammatory mediators and alleviating inflammatory or chronic pain.

  • Publication number: 20190365689
    Abstract: Methods of using redox APE1/Ref-1 inhibitors to treat prostate cancer, and particularly, metastatic prostate cancer, are disclosed. Particularly, small molecule inhibitors of APE1/Ref-1 redox activity have been found to decrease cell proliferation and induce cell cycle arrest in metastatic prostate cancer cell lines. Further, these APE1/Ref-1 redox inhibitors can be used to reduce expression of survivin, which has been shown to be overexpressed in primary and metastatic tumors.
