Abstract: Provided are an injection mold and an injection molding method by which a boundary line between a first material and a second material curved so as to be sharply bent like a round chamfered shape can be formed reliably in a desired position, and a molded article molded using the injection mold and the injection molding method. The sum of a length w of an inclined-part forming part 51a and a length y of a thinned-part forming part 51b in a width direction of a linear part or a width direction of a curved part is at least equal to a prescribed value, and the thinned-part forming part 51b forming the curved part has a second length y longer than a first length in the width direction of the curved part.

Abstract: An instrument panel (10) is formed by bonding a base material portion (20) composed of a base material M1 and a different material portion (30) composed of a different material M2. The different material portion (30) is infiltrated into the base material portion (20) and the infiltration portion (33) has a plurality of intermittent recessed portions.

Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to decrease the immunogenicity of mouse-derived anti-AXL antibodies in humans by humanizing them. The present invention provides antibodies that can bind to a specific region in Anexelekto (AXL) and humanized antibodies that are produced based on such antibodies. The anti-AXL antibodies of the present invention have high antitumor activity, and are useful as agents for decreasing the AXL expression level, antitumor agents, and diagnostic agents for cancer.

Abstract: The present inventors have succeeded in producing anti-AXL antibodies with specific functions.

Abstract: The present invention provides a polyethylene glycol-conjugated erythropoietin (PEG-conjugated EPO) prepared by PEG conjugation on the lysine residue at position 52 of native erythropoietin (native EPO). In order to achieve more sustained efficacy without losing physiological activities of native EPO, a glycoprotein rich in sugar chains, there has been a need to develop a PEG-conjugated EPO with significantly sustained efficacy by introducing a controlled number of PEG molecules at controlled positions. This PEG-conjugated EPO addresses such a need and provides more sustained efficacy.

Abstract: A self-diagnosing system for an encoder. The system includes an encoder circuit for outputting information detected by an encoder; a data preparing section provided in the encoder circuit and preparing data representing a state of an abnormal-state judgment factor in connection with at least one of the encoder and an electric motor combined with the encoder; a signal generating section provided in the encoder circuit and generating an abnormal-state signal when the data prepared in the data preparing section represents an abnormal state of the abnormal-state judgment factor; and a storage section provided in the encoder circuit and storing the data representing a state of the abnormal-state judgment factor when the signal generating section generates the abnormal-state signal. The storage section may store the data prepared in the data preparing section at a desired timing not later than the instant the signal generating section generates the abnormal-state signal.
