Abstract: DP-2 antagonists reversed PGD2-mediated human hair growth inhibition in a dose-dependent manner in vitro by reducing PGD2-triggered apoptosis and maintaining proliferation of keratinocytes. Hair follicles from approximately half of the alopecia patients exhibited little susceptibility to PGD2's effect in vitro. SNPs in the human DP-2 gene were identified that are associated with hair growth inhibition by PGD2. These findings underscore the role of DP-2 in regulating hair growth and indicate that DP-2 can be an effective approach in preventing and/or treating androgenetic alopecia in patients sensitive to PGD2. Furthermore, the SNPs identified here can be used to identify patients who will benefit from treatment.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to a pressure regulator assembly for a closed fluid loop of a CDU. The pressure regulator assembly has a cylinder having an internal volume, and first and second hollow pistons slidably connected to the cylinder to split the internal volume into a first volume portion having cooling fluid, a second volume portion having driver fluid, and a third volume portion having compressible matter. The first volume portion is fluidically connected to the closed fluid loop. The first hollow piston is reciprocated by the compressible matter to maintain operating pressure of the cooling fluid in the closed fluid loop. The second hollow piston is driven by the driver fluid in response to predefined pressure drop of the cooling fluid during predefined time period, to inject additional cooling fluid from the first volume portion into the closed fluid loop to restore pressure level of cooling fluid to operating pressure.

Abstract: Methods and systems for automated testing of extremely-high frequency devices are disclosed. A device under test (DUT) is set in a simultaneous transmit and receive mode. The DUT receives a lower frequency radio frequency (RF) signal from a test unit and up-converts the lower frequency RF signal to a higher frequency RF signal. The DUT transmits the higher frequency RF signal using a first antenna, and receives the higher frequency RF signal using a second antenna. The DUT down-converts the received higher frequency RF signal to a received test RF signal and provides the received test RF signal to the test unit for comparing measurements derived from the received test signal to a design specification for the DUT.

The implantable medical device may be sized, shaped, configured, and/or dimensioned to hold anatomical structures in apposition. The dynamic section allows relative movement of the apposed anatomical structures without causing migration of the ends of the implantable medical device which are anchored with respect to the anatomical structures.

Abstract: A battery interconnect may include a desired current capacity, integrated fusible links, and be manufacturable using cost effective techniques. In some embodiments, a battery interconnect includes a busbar and relatively thinner links. A busbar carries larger currents and accordingly its cross-sectional areas are relatively larger to reduce ohmic losses. A link carries a much smaller current, and a fusible link is configured to break the circuit when the current is above a threshold, thus requiring a relatively small cross-sectional area. These sometime disparate length scales are addressed using several techniques such as layering a busbar and a foil sheet and pressing portions of a busbar to form the links. The links can be affixed to a plurality of battery cells to connect the cells in parallel or series.
