Abstract: An air conditioner according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a wall-mounted indoor unit which includes a heat exchanger, a blower, and a housing that accommodates the heat exchanger and the blower therein, and which is fixed to a wall surface, and a discharge unit which is disposed above the indoor unit outside the indoor unit, in which the housing includes a suction port that opens upward, the discharge unit includes a discharge device disposed above the suction port, at least a portion of air suctioned into the suction port passes through the discharge device, and a center of the discharge unit in a right-left direction of the indoor unit is disposed to be shifted to one side in the right-left direction with respect to a center of the indoor unit.

Abstract: An air conditioner according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a wall-mounted indoor unit which includes a heat exchanger, a blower, and a housing that accommodates the heat exchanger and the blower therein, and which is fixed to a wall surface, and a discharge unit which is disposed above the indoor unit outside the indoor unit, in which the indoor unit includes a first control unit that controls the indoor unit, the housing includes a suction port that opens upward, the discharge unit includes a discharge device disposed above the suction port, at least a portion of air suctioned into the suction port passes through the discharge device, and the discharge device is driven based on a signal received from the first control unit.

Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide a newly isolated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-like protein having binding activity specific to a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor type 2 (KDR) but exhibiting no binding affinity to a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor type 1 (Flt-1), and thus being excellent in hypotensive effect. There have been newly purified and isolated a VEGF-like protein from a venom of Vipera ammodytes ammodytes: vammin and a VEGF-like protein from a venom of Daboia russelli russelli: VR-1 as the VEGF-like protein having binding activity specific to KDR but exhibiting no binding affinity to Flt-1, and thereby being excellent in hypotensive effect, and the amino acid sequences of these both have been analyzed in the present invention.
