  • Publication number: 20070099826
    Abstract: Compounds and methods are provided for treating patients suffering from health condition associated with an expression state of a gene such as fertility disorders, cancer, proliferative diseases, vascular diseases, wounds requiring therapeutic intervention, inflammation, and pulmonary disorders by administering to said patient a compound capable of modulating egr-1 and/or an egr-1 response element consensus sequence thereby altering the expression state of said gene. Also described are new methods for screening compounds to identify effectors of egr-1 and/or egr-1 consensus sequence elements and methods for treating patients by administering such effectors to modulate egr-1 and/or egr-1 consensus sequences to thereby modify expression of genes associated therewith to in turn treat diseases or other physiological conditions associated with such gene expression.

  • Patent number: 3946509
    Abstract: This invention relates to an improved sign which may be quickly and easily detachably secured to an automobile body by being inserted into the space between the trunk lid or front hood and the fenders of the automobile. The flat rigid sign is between 1/8 and 3/8 inches in thickness and may be formed of a corrugated cardboard panel sandwiched between two flat cardboard panels and covered by a smooth vinyl coating to be resilient to pressure from the side. It is attached to the automobile by being manually depressed into the vertical space until its lower edge abuts on a horizontal portion of one of the members forming the space, in which position it is retained substantially vertically by being resiliently engaged between the sides of the space. In a preferred embodiment, the sign has a flexible lower edge portion provided by the vinyl covering extending downward beneath the cardboard panels, which is bent sideways to engage one of the members defining the space.
