Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment comprising an antibody against CCR8.

Abstract: An aortic aneurysm has few noticeable symptoms and is at high risk of rupture without a sign of abnormality. Further, if the aortic aneurysm ruptures, it causes a shock state due to massive blood loss and results in a very low survival rate. Thus, when the aortic aneurysm is found by physical examination or the like, surgery with a stent graft or the like needs to be performed according to the state of its progression. A pharmaceutical composition for preventing and treating an aortic aneurysm including a medium chain fatty acid as a main component has an effect of inhibiting the occurrence and progression of the aortic aneurysm. Thus, when the aortic aneurysm is found, continuous intake of the composition can not only inhibit the progression of the aortic aneurysm but also mediate the regression of the aortic aneurysm, thereby producing the effect of improving vital prognosis.

Abstract: Various measures have conventionally been adopted against bird damage, but as yet none has proved decisive. There is moreover no technology that affords sustained repellency of coating materials against bird damage. A bird-repellent coating material according to the present invention contains at least one component selected from the group consisting of a microencapsulated aqueous dispersion of a visual repellent against birds, a microencapsulated volatile olfactory repellent against birds and a powder of a visual repellent against birds, and an aqueous resin vehicle that contains the above component. No bird-repellent coating material has been conventionally produced in which the components and so forth of the material are established taking into consideration the diversity and learning ability of birds. The formulation of the bird-repellent coating material according to the present invention, by contrast, has been devised taking into account the senses of sight and smell in birds.
