  • Publication number: 20240366602
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods for treating a condition or disease associated with weight gain that include coadministration of an apelin receptor agonist and a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Methods for increasing total weight loss in the subject relative to weight loss that would be caused by administration of a pre-determined amount of a GLP-1 receptor agonist alone are also provided. In some embodiments, the method is for preserving, or maintaining muscle mass, muscle function, and/or muscle strength in a subject undergoing weight loss therapy.

  • Publication number: 20240252493
    Abstract: Apelin receptor modulators can improve physical performance, slow progression of age-related frailty, and can reduce age-related muscle weakness in human patients. This disclosure provides methods for treating muscle conditions using a particular class of apelin receptor modulators (e.g., agonists). The muscle condition can be an age-related muscle condition. Also provided is a method for maintaining and/or increasing muscle mass and/or muscle strength in an elderly subject by administration of the apelin receptor modulator. In some embodiments, the apelin receptor modulator (e.g., agonist) is BGE-105, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

  • Publication number: 20240178501
    Abstract: A battery cell transport system for a battery cell having a first electrode and a second electrode is provided. The system includes a basket having first, second, third, and fourth side walls coupled to a bottom wall, and an extension member. The extension member is coupled to the first side wall. The basket holds the battery cell such that the first and second electrodes point toward the first and second side walls, respectively. The system includes a transport device that holds the basket thereon. The system includes first and second vertical members disposed proximate to first and second sides, respectively, of the transport device. The extension member contacts the second vertical member when the basket is in an undesired position on the transport device such that the basket is prevented from moving past the first and second vertical members.

  • Publication number: 20230342390
    Abstract: Disclosed are implementations that enable the linking or connection of objects and different scenes in which those objects are represented. For example, a corpus of scenes (e.g., digital images) that include a representation of one or more objects may be processed using the disclosed implementations to segment from those scenes the individual objects represented in those scenes. The disclosed implementations may further determine clusters of visually similar object segments and form object clusters for those object segments. The scenes that include those object segments are also linked to the object cluster. With scenes linked to different object clusters, a user may select one or more query objects or a query scene and be presented with other scenes that include visually similar objects, even though the overall scenes may be visually different.

  • Publication number: 20230126071
    Abstract: A system is disclosed for producing a mixture to deliver to a treatment site. The system can include a mixing lumen attachable to a proximal end of a delivery system. A multi-lumen chamber can be connected to a proximal end of the mixing lumen and include a first lumen aligned and adjacent a second lumen. The first lumen can receive a first constituent in a first state. The first lumen can include a first plunger to move the first constituent from the first lumen to the mixing lumen. The second lumen can include a second constituent and a second plunger to distally move the second constituent and the first constituent in a second state. Distally moving the second plunger causes the first constituent and the second constituent to be mixed together within the mixing lumen to form the mixture.
