Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: Detergent compositions including polypeptide variants and methods of cleaning and/or treatment of surfaces using such compositions, and fabric treatment compositions including polypeptide variants. The compositions may include surfactants: anionic, nonionic and/or cationic.

Abstract: The photolabile hydrazine linker of the present invention is based on the o-nitro-veratryl group, which is capable of releasing hydrazide derivatives upon UV irradiation. The linker allows for a new solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) strategy which is fully orthogonal to the most commonly used protecting groups and chemical methods in SPPS and shows excellent compatibility with peptide composition, notably the 20 naturally occurring ?-amino acid residues (even in their side-chain protected form) are accepted in the C-terminal of the peptide hydrazides. Furthermore, the linker unit can be applied to synthesize combinatorial libraries of biological interesting heterocyclic compounds, such as pyranopyrazoles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for identifying compounds capable of modulating a cellular response. The methods involve attaching living cells to solid supports comprising a library of test compounds. Test compounds modulating a cellular response, for example via a cell surface molecule may be identified by selecting solid supports comprising cells, wherein the cellular response of interest has been modulated. The cellular response may for example be changes in signal transduction pathways modulated by a cell surface molecule.
