  • Method for evaluating the compactness of a layer of railway line ballast, device for implementing same and method for predicting the compaction of said layer of ballast
    Patent number: 9810614
    Abstract: The method for evaluating the compactness of a layer of railroad ballast near a railroad tie includes at least one step of taking at least two measurements (11,11a,11b) of the penetration resistance (Qd) of the ballast (13) near one and the same railroad tie (10), and a step of calculating the mean value (Qdmean) of these measurements (11,11a,11b) of penetration resistance (Qd). Also provided are a device for implementing such a method and a method for predicting the settlement of the ballast of a railroad track including a step of evaluating the compactness of a ballast near a railroad tie.

  • Method for Identifying Genes Involved in Trail-Induced Apoptosis and Therapeutic Applications Thereof
    Publication number: 20110256090
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for identifying genes involved in TRAIL-induced apoptosis, to inhibitors of the expression of genes inducing resistance of cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis and to activators of the expression of a gene sensitizing cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. The invention also relates to methods for sensitizing cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis, methods for treating hyperproliferative diseases, methods for determining the responsiveness of a subject suffering from a hyperproliferative disease to TRAIL, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising products capable of sensitizing cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis, and to methods for determining the prognosis of a subject suffering from a hyperproliferative disease.
