  • Patent number: 10426773
    Abstract: A method of treating an ocular disorder in a subject includes administering to the subject subtherapeutic amounts of two or more agents that inhibit and/or blocks the activation of Gs- or Gq-protein coupled receptors or Gs- or Gq-signaling cascade in ocular cells of the subject, and/or activates Gi-protein coupled receptors, which is induced or triggered by light induced all-trans-retinal generation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 5, 2018
    Date of Patent: October 1, 2019
    Assignee: CASE WESTERN UNIVERSITY
    Inventors: Krzysztof Palczewski, Yu Chen, Akiko Maeda

  • Patent number: 9236123
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a memory cell array including a plurality of first and second memory cells each comprising a variable resistance element that establishes an electrical resistance that changes in response to an application of a write voltage after a forming voltage has been applied, the first memory cell to which the forming voltage is applied, and the second memory cell to which the forming voltage is not applied, and the second memory cell being configured to store one of first and second logic values constituting first information, the first and second logic values being different from each other.
