Abstract: An actuator has an actuator housing engaged to a portion of a transaxle housing to define a space. A clutch assembly has a support shaft extending through the actuator housing and rotatably supporting gears in the space. At least one pin extends through one gear and a spring urges the pin into engagement with a second gear. An adjustment nut extends through the actuator housing and engages the support shaft to adjustably compress the spring. The actuator may further have an actuator housing forming a motor chamber and a gear chamber. A mounting plate detachably couples the actuator and pump housings, and the plate defines an opening through which a pump control shaft extends. A worm drive is disposed in the gear chamber and driven by an electric motor shaft, and drives a spur gear reduction, the pump control shaft being controlled by the spur gear reduction.

Abstract: Provided are methods for treating diseases, disorders, and conditions associated with undesirable cellular proliferation in subjects in need thereof. In some embodiments, the methods include administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising, consisting essentially of, or consisting of a chemotherapeutic agent and a short chain ceramide. Also provided are methods for increasing total ceramide levels in cells, for increasing long chain ceramide to a very long chain ceramide ratios in cells, methods for enhancing apoptosis of cells, for prognosing subjects with diseases, disorders, and conditions associated with undesirable cellular proliferation with respect to treatments, for increasing sensitivities of drug-resistant tumor and/or cancer cells to chemotherapeutics, and compositions that have one or more short chain ceramides and one or more chemotherapeutically active agents.

Abstract: Provided are methods for preventing and/or reducing weight gain in subjects. In some embodiments, the methods include administering an effective amount of a composition that includes a long chain fatty acid of at least 22 carbons and/or a derivative thereof to prevent and/or reduce weight gain in the subject. In some embodiments, the long chain fatty acid is a monounsaturated omega 9 fatty acid, which in some embodiments is nervonic acid or a derivative thereof. Also provided are methods for preventing and/or reducing the development of obesity in subjects, for inhibiting reduction of very-long chain sphingolipids in subjects, for increasing content of one or more ceramides while simultaneously decreasing content of one or more C20-C26 ceramides in subjects, and for reducing blood glucose levels resulting from consumption of high fat diets in subjects.

Abstract: A vehicle having a pair of electric actuators for use with a pair of drive apparatuses is disclosed herein. For each actuator, an electric motor drives a reduction gear train to position a control shaft, the reduction gear train having a worm drive that motivates a spur gear reduction. The housing of the electric actuator features a motor chamber to accommodate the electric motor and is sealed by a cap having an electric connector.
