  • Publication number: 20240150423
    Abstract: Applications of different configurations of novel glucagon peptide 1 with fatty acid modification or nonmodification in the treatment of T2D or the pancreas protection are provided. The dimer of the present disclosure is formed by two identical cysteine-containing GLP-1 monomers through a disulfide bond. The H-like GLP-1 homodimer (disulfide bond is inside chains) showed remarkable increase in hypoglycemic duration without reducing specific activity. The GLP-1 dimer provided has an in-vivo effective duration of up to 19 days, which significantly prolonged compared with that of the positive control drug Liraglutide with 3 days of effective duration, or thereby greatly promoting the technical advancement in long-acting GLP-1 drugs and facilitating their clinical applications and business. Meanwhile the U-like homodimer (disulfide bond is at the C-terminus) does not affect blood glucose, but can obviously protect pancreatic exocrine cells such as acini and ducts, and improve pancreas function.

  • Patent number: 11943221
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include systems and methods configured to prevent masquerading service attacks. A non-limiting example computer-implemented method includes sending, from a first server in a cloud environment, a communication request comprising an application programming interface (API) key and a first server identifier to an identity and access management (IAM) server of the cloud environment. The API key can be uniquely assigned by the IAM server to a first component of the first server. The first server receives a credential that includes a token for the first component and sends the credential to a second server. The second server sends the credential, a second server identifier, and an identifier for a second component of the second server to the IAM server. The second server receives an acknowledgment from the IAM server and sends the acknowledgment to the first server.

  • Patent number: 11934359
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product is provided for computer log management. In one embodiment, in response to receiving a log request from a user, an input content is analyzed and adjusted according to input contents and user's previous activities. A similarity analysis and a fairness analysis is performed to determine similarities between the input content, as adjusted, and a plurality of log records in an object library. The similarity analysis includes analyzing any patterns and attributes. The attributes have a dimension, and each dimension has a predefined weight (W). The fairness analysis ensures that one type of log is not favored over others. A best possible match is then determined, and one or more logs are presented to the user providing the best possible match.
