Patent number: 11457769Abstract: A method is disclosed for cooking food in an oven cavity, where air is the cooking medium. Using a predetermined cooking algorithm, a temperature of the oven cavity is adjusted in a plurality of temperature and/or time regulated cooking stages. An initial pre-heat stage targets a first target temperature including a user-selected oven cavity temperature plus a first offset. A subsequent post-heat stage targets a second target temperature including the user-selected temperature plus a second offset different from the first offset. Two or more heating elements and a fan are operated during the post-heat stage according to a duty cycle controlled via a hysteresis temperature control algorithm or a PID temperature control algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2021Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Electrolux Home Products, Inc.Inventors: Steven M.

Publication number: 20140302515Abstract: Kaiso, a transcriptional regulator with bimodal DNA-binding specificity, is over-expressed in breast cancer cells, and its nuclear localization is correlated with malignant and lymph node metastasis. Depleted expression of Kaiso in those cells results in a significant decrease in basal and EGF-induced cell migration, and this is associated with increased E-cadherin expression. The data reported and described herein provide significant evidence that Kaiso is involved in breast cancer invasion and metastasis. Kaiso nuclear localization is a biomarker that is associated with invasive and metastatic infiltrating ductal breast cancer that may be used to monitor, detect, and/or track the progress of disease in a patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2012Publication date: October 9, 2014Applicant: TUSKEGEE UNIVERSITYInventors: Clayton Yates, Timothy Turner, Jacqueline Jones-Triche

Patent number: 8734775Abstract: Disclosed are peptides having activity against receptor CXCR3 are disclosed that exhibit activity in preventing the formation of new vessels and activity in mediating the dissociation of newly-formed vessels and resolving of wounds in the later stages of wound healing. Preferred peptides are derived from the ?-helix portion IP-10 (CXCL10) or from IP-9 (CXCL11), are nontoxic, and smaller than naturally occurring peptides, making them useful in therapies against diseases or disease states marked by unwanted angiogenesis, including tumorogenic diseases such as cancers, and in healing of chronic wounds.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2011Date of Patent: May 27, 2014Assignees: University of Pittsburgh, Tuskegee UniversityInventors: Cecelia C.

Patent number: 8461118Abstract: Lytic peptides, including fusion peptides of lytic peptides conjugated with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone or modified versions thereof to target luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone receptors, are disclosed. The lytic peptides show anti-proliferative activity against human prostate cancer cell lines, but are nontoxic to normal primary human prostate epithelial cells or to bone marrow stromal cells in co-culture. The lytic peptides have specificity for and anti-proliferative activity against prostate cancer tumor cells, and low toxicity for normal prostate cells, making the peptides useful in therapies for prostate cancer.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2011Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Tuskegee UniversityInventors: Clayton Yates, Jesse Jaynes, Timothy Turner

Publication number: 20130067861Abstract: Fibrous insulation products have a binder composition that may include a carbohydrate and a crosslinking agent, and potentially other optional ingredients. The shelf life and physical properties of fibrous insulation products, particularly those having bio-based binders, can be improved by packaging that completely envelopes and seals the fibrous product from exposure to atmospheric conditions. Exemplary envelopes disclosed include sealed bags, double stretch wrap and stretch hoods. Properties that can be improved include recovery of loft, restoring force and tensile strength among others.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2011Publication date: March 21, 2013Applicant: Owens Corning Intellectual Capital, LLCInventors: Timothy Turner, Ann Marie dePaauw, Michael Ugorek, David R.
