Abstract: The present invention relates to iPSC produced from fibroblast obtained from a subject affected by a neurodevelopmental disorder entailing intellectual disability (ID) and/or a disorder belonging to the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and/or Schizophrenia (SZ) and uses thereof. The present invention also relates to a cortical neural progenitor cell or a terminally differentiated cortical glutamatergic or gabaergic neuronal cell or a neural crest stem cell line, a mesenchymal stem cell line produced from the iPSC or iPSC line. The invention also relates to method for identifying a compound for the treatment and/or prevention of a neurodevelopmental disorder entailing intellectual disability (ID) and/or a disorder belonging to the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and/or Schizophrenia (SZ) and to a LSD1 inhibitor or a HDAC2 inhibitor for use in the treatment of such disorders.

Abstract: Provided is a switch for motor vehicles including an outer containing and protecting body which houses a lock cylinder. The lock cylinder is adapted to receive an ignition key and is rotatable through several operative positions by means of the rotation of said key. An antenna is connectable to an electronic immobiliser that is adapted to transmit to a control unit of a motor vehicle the motor vehicle engine ignition enable/disable signals. The antenna is located at said outer body.

Abstract: A steering wheel has a ring portion, spoke portions and a hub portion. The steering wheel is provided with a thermoelectric reversible heat pump to heat or cool a fluid. A closed hydraulic circuit includes a hydraulic pump and at least one duct extending along the ring portion of the steering wheel. The fluid is heated or cooled by the thermoelectric heat pump and is circulated by the hydraulic pump within the ring portion of the steering wheel to heat or cool the ring portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for obtaining artificial stone materials, which composition includes a compound selected from the group comprising benzopinacol and at least one derivative thereof. The present invention also relates to a mixture for obtaining an artificial stone material, including a resin compound and the above mentioned composition in a percentage ranging from 0.1 to 10% by weight with respect to the resin compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of consolidation of blocks or slabs made of a building material, which comprises the steps of: providing offcuts of blocks or slabs of a building material; adding and mixing the offcuts with a resin-based composition to obtain a mixture thereof; and applying the mixture thus obtained to one or more faces of a slab or block made of the same building material.

Abstract: A steering wheel or other component for motor vehicle interiors, is produced by pressure thermoforming an external layer of decorative material, together with an internal structural layer of support material that includes a matrix of thermoplastic material and a plurality of reinforcing fibers for the thermoplastic matrix. The matrix may be of polymer that impregnates the fabric or made of fabrics that are interwoven or mixed with the reinforcing fibers.

Abstract: A vehicle steering wheel assembly having a molded armature with outwardly extending spokes for mounting on a steering column. Airbag module engagement members extend from an airbag module housing to engage corresponding armature engagement members. The airbag module rests on a multiple of switch assemblies while the engagement members are separated by a clearance. The engagement members are only in contact if the airbag is fired. A clearance between each armature engagement member and each corresponding airbag module engagement member assures that there is no interference that may result in undesirable noise or vibration.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a decorative components for vehicle interiors, comprises the steps of pre-forming a sheet of formable veneer material under pressure and heath, positioning the pre-formed sheet in a mold half of an injection mold comprising a cavity; holding the sheet in position on the mold half, closing said mold and injecting into the cavity one or more thermoplastic materials on the back of the veneer sheet to provide a support layer.

Abstract: A method for installing an airbag assembly within a steering wheel assembly includes locating an airbag module engagement member with a corresponding armature engagement member. Once aligned, an operator presses downward on the airbag cover until switch engagement members engage their corresponding switch assembly receivers within the airbag cover. A clearance is formed between each armature engagement members and the corresponding airbag module engagement members when the module is mounted to the molded armature. Thus the switch assemblies support the airbag module.
