Abstract: The present invention relates to peptides and peptidomimetics as well as their medical use in the treatment of hyperproliferative diseases and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to coating compositions, comprising i) single or mixed metal oxide nanoparticles, wherein the volume average diameter (Dv50) of the metal oxide nanoparticles is in the range of 1 to 20 nm; the nanoparticles comprise at least one volatile surface-modifying compound selected from alcohols, ?-diketones, or salts thereof; carboxylic acids and ?-ketoesters and Ge mixtures thereof, wherein the total amount of volatile surface-modifying compounds is at least 5% by weight, preferably at least 10% by weight based on the amount of metal oxide nano-particles, and ii) a solvent, coatings obtained therefrom and the use of the comositions for coating surface relief micro- and nanostructures (e.g. holograms), manufacturing of optical waveguides, solar panels, light outcoupling layers for display and lighting devices and anti-reflection coatings.

Abstract: Engineering plastics, especially polyamide, are coloured with improved fastness and stability properties using pigment compositions comprising an organic pigment wholly overlaid with a crosslinked (meth)acrylic resin or copolymer thereof. Preference is given to the use of diketopyrrolopyrrole, azo, pteridine, isoindoline and isoindolinone pigments. Processes for the preparation of the pigment compositions are also claimed.
