Abstract: The present invention features interferon-free therapies for the treatment of HCV. Preferably, the treatment is over a shorter duration of treatment, such as no more than 12 weeks. In one aspect, the treatment comprises administering at least two direct acting antiviral agents to a subject with HCV infection, wherein the treatment lasts for 12 weeks and does not include administration of either interferon or ribavirin, and said at least two direct acting antiviral agents comprise (a) Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and (b) Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of matrix cells for obtaining a micro hair follicle and to the use thereof for evaluating the effect of cosmetic, pharmaceutical or dermatological products and also for the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of a state of reduced pilosity.

Abstract: A method for transforming and routing data includes receiving data from one of a number of remote computing systems. The data is in the form of a first data format associated with a legacy processing system. Source information related to the one of the plurality of remote computing systems is identified. A determination is made that the one of the plurality of remote computing systems has been migrated to a new processing system based at least in part on the source information. The data is mapped to a second data format associated with the new processing system. A transmission is routed to the new processing system. The transmission includes the mapped data in the form of the second data format.

Abstract: The present invention features methods of using Compound I to suppress HCV mutants, treat treatment-experienced HCV patients, and treat HCV patients having non-CC IL28B rs12979860 genotype.

Abstract: Pan-genotypic HCV inhibitors are described. This invention also relates to methods of using these inhibitors to treat HCV infection.

Abstract: Expression of a messenger RNA which encodes a protein which is expressed by differentiated cells, notably the cells of the skin or appendages thereof, is inhibited by topically administering to said differentiated cells a thus effective amount of at least one double-stranded RNA oligonucleotide, formulated into a topically applicable, physiologically acceptable medium therefor; such regime or regimen is useful for treating a variety of afflictions or conditions, e.g., combating the signs of skin aging, stimulating hair growth or retarding loss thereof, inhibiting cellular proliferation and/or differentiation, etc.

Abstract: Novel double-stranded RNA oligonucleotides are useful for decreasing tyrosinase expression, have cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical applications, for example are useful skin depigmenting or anti-browning agents, and can be associated with cationic particles less than or equal to 1 ?m in size, having a zeta potential of from 10 to 80 mV.
