Abstract: Fusion proteins comprising IL2 and IL2R? (e.g., CIRB), IL2, IL2R? and IL21R (e.g., CIRB21), and/or comprising IL2, IL2R?, and CD28 (e.g., CIRB28); natural killer (NK) cells that express the fusion proteins and methods of use thereof, e.g., to treat subjects with cancer; and regulatory T cells (T-regs) that express a fusion protein comprising IL2, IL2R?, and CD28 and methods of use thereof, e.g., to treat subjects with autoimmune disease or GVHD.

Abstract: In one aspect, a return air bulkhead (50) for a temperature controlled container (10) is provided. The bulkhead (50) includes a lower section (52) configured to couple to the container (10) and an upper section (54) separate from the lower section (52). The upper section (54) is configured to be adjustably coupled to the lower section (52) at varying heights relative to the lower section (52) such that a total height of the return air bulkhead (50) is adjustable.

Abstract: The invention is directed to compounds according to formula (I): where R1 is L1C(O)OT or L1C(O)OL2C(O)OT; R2 is a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl, C2-C10 alkenyl, or C2-C10 alkynyl, or R1; n is an integer from 0 to 5; each R3 is independently halogen or R2; R4 and R5 are independently H, halogen, CN or CF3; L1 and L2 are each independently a bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkylene, C2-C10 alkenylene, or C2-C10 alkynylene; and T is H, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl, C2-C10 alkenyl, or C2-C10 alkynyl, nitrophenol, or cyclopropyl. The invention is also directed to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound according to formula (I) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and to methods for providing anesthesia in mammals by administering such a pharmaceutical composition.
