Abstract: A chip slot is disclosed, which includes a slot, where a plurality of terminal groups are disposed in the slot, terminals in each terminal group include metal sheets that are symmetrically disposed on two opposite inner side walls of the slot, and each metal sheet has a bending pin that extends outside the slot; bending directions of bending pins on the terminals in each terminal group are same; and for any row of metal sheets in any two adjacent terminal groups, along an arrangement direction of the row of metal sheets, bending pins of the metal sheets in the adjacent terminal groups are alternately arranged on both sides of the row of metal sheets. The bending pins of the row of metal sheets are bent toward two different directions.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel compounds that protect neurons and/or promote neuroregeneration and/or promote memory formation. Such compounds are useful for treatment of a variety of neural disorders and conditions. In another aspect of the present invention, there are also provided formulations containing one or more of the above-described compounds, optionally further containing additional neurologically active compound(s) and/or adjuvants to facilitate delivery thereof across the blood/brain barrier. In still another aspect of the present invention, there are further provided methods for treating a wide variety of neurological indications, e.g., acute neural injuries, chronic injuries, promoting memory formation, and the like.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel methods of blocking amyloid protein toxicity in cells using polycylic compounds. Also provided are novel methods of decreasing amyloid protein production in cells and methods of inhibiting cell death. Invention methods can be used to prevent and treat a diverse class of disease conditions, known as amyloidoses, which are all related to the occurrence of amyloid protein deposits. Invention methods further provide methods of identifying compounds that can block amyloid toxicity or block the amyloid protein induced inhibition of MMT reduction.
