Abstract: A tool for crimping work pieces to one another is disclosed. The tool is mounted on a power actuator having a reciprocating ram for effecting crimping. The tool includes a body engageable with the workpiece. A movable head is mounted on the body and receives the ram. A jaw is pivotably mounted on the body. A link connects the head to the jaw, which pivots in response to the ram engaging and moving the head. The jaw has a tooth that penetrates the work pieces upon pivoting of the jaw. Penetration of the work pieces by the tooth crimps the pieces to one another. A receiver is mounted on the body to permit its engagement with the actuator by means of an attachment device adapted to a particular actuator. The tool may be removably attachable to the actuator or permanently attached thereto.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for treating certain neurologic and psychiatric disorders in mammals, including humans, comprising administration of a selective PDE10 inhbitor. In particular, the invention relates to treatment of mood, movement, and anxiety disorders; psychosis; drug, for example alcohol, addiction; disorders having as a symptom deficient cognition; and neurodegenerative disorders and conditions. The invention furthermore provides the use of papaverine as a selective inhibitor of PDE10. The invention also provides assays for identifying chemical compounds that have activity as selective PDE10 inhibitors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating depression or anxiety in a mammal, including a human, by administering to the mammal a CNS-penetrant NK-1 receptor antagonist (e.g., a substance P receptor antagonist) in combination with a PDE IV inhibitor. It also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a CNS-penetrant NK-1 receptor antagonist and a PDE IV inhibitor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating depression or anxiety in a mammal, including a human, by administering to the mammal a PDE IV inhibitor in combination with an antidepressant or an anxiolytic agent. It also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a PDE IV inhibitor and an anxiolytic agent or antidepressant.

Abstract: The invention features non-human mammals and animal cells that contain a targeted disruption of a phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) gene.
