Abstract: Provided is pyrazole derivatives as a TNIK (Traf2- and NCK-interacting kinase), IKK? (I-kappa-B kinase epsilon) and TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) inhibitor; the pyrazole derivative according to the present invention effectively inhibits TNIK, IKK? and TBK1, and thus is useful not only as an anticancer agent for the treatment of various cancers including colorectal cancer, breast cancer, CNS cancer, colon cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, kidney cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, uterus cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, skin cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, bladder cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, thyroid cancer, head and neck cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, osteosarcoma, B-cell or T-cell lymphoma, acute or chronic leukemia and multiple myeloma, but as a therapeutic agent for chronic inflammation.

Abstract: A cosmetic composition according to the present invention may prevent the precipitation of caffeine at a low temperature, and thus may comprise a high concentration of caffeine that is effective in promoting lipolysis. Caffeine is known to promote lipolysis when applied to a human body. The cosmetic composition of the present invention may comprise a high concentration of caffeine, and thus can be valuably use in cosmetics or the like that requires effects of caffeine such as slimming effects, effect of relief from facial swelling or the like.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a biometric imager that can be integrated into a touch enabled computing device, and may be used to interact with the device. Upon touching the touch-enabled surface of the device, an image of at least a portion of the touch object can be captured and used in conjunction with identification of the user and/or for input to the device. The systems or techniques, described herein, may be integrated into a portion of the surface of such a device, and may comprise a luminescent layer that can emit photons upon touch, and an image capture component that can generate data indicative of an image of at least a portion of the touch object.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for adjusting a brightness level of an image element representing an image of a body-part relief print. A first weighting factor can be determined for a first image element that may be comprised in an initial image captured by a body-part relief print image capture device. A body-part relief print weighting value can be determined, which can be based at least upon a combination of the first weighting factor and a second image element brightness value for a second image element that may be comprised in a body-part relief print image, which may be captured by a same body-part relief print image capture device as the initial image. An adjusted brightness level can be determined for the second image element, based at least upon a combination of the body-part relief print weighting value and the second image element brightness value.
