Abstract: Provided is a method for retrieving a lost-of-contact mobile terminal. The method is applied to a first control terminal, and includes: receiving a first lost-of-contact distress signal a first mobile terminal forwarded by a server; displaying a help seeking interface; sending, in response to a help-retrieving instruction, a first help-retrieving request to the server; and receiving a first confirmation help message from a second control terminal from the server, wherein the first confirmation help message indicates that the second control terminal agrees to help retrieve the first mobile terminal.

Abstract: Provided is a method for processing video data. The method includes: acquiring a second outline of at least one object in an (n+1)th image frame of a to-be-compressed video data group based on a fuzzy algorithm; determining a motion vector of the at least one object according to the second outline and a first outline of the at least one object in an nth image frame of the to-be-compressed video data group; acquiring compressed video data according to the motion vector and a start image frame of to-be-compressed video data; and sending the compressed video data to an apparatus for displaying images.

Abstract: The present invention provides a detecting method of detecting malignant cells in a patient's specimen or a biological sample. Specifically, the inventive method includes the steps of extracting a genomic DNA, digesting said genomic DNA with one or multiple methylation sensitive restriction enzymes, and amplifying by PCR with one or multiple selected primers. The PCR can be performed in a conventional or a real-time platform. The inventive method can detect leukemia cells in 90% ALL patients at a sensitivity of up to 10?6. The inventive method also provides broad clinical applications in cancer (including hematopoietic and solid tumors) screening and risk assessment, early detection and diagnosis confirmation, and therapeutic monitoring, minimal residual disease detection and prognostic prediction.

Abstract: Differential Methylation Hybridization (DMH) was used to identify novel methylation markers and methylation profiles for hematopoieetic malignancies, leukemia, lymphomas, etc. (e.g., non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), small B-cell lymphomas (SBCL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (B-CLL/SLL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), multiple myeloma (MM), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), etc.). Particular aspects provide novel biomarkers for NHL and subtypes thereof (e.g., MCL, B-CLL/SLL, FL, DLBCL, etc.), AML, ALL and MM, and further provide non-invasive tests (e.g. blood tests) for lymphomas and leukemias. Additional aspects provide markers for diagnosis, prognosis, monitoring responses to therapies, relapse, etc., and further provide targets and methods for therapeutic demethylating treatments.

Abstract: Novel methods are herein provided for high-throughput, dual analysis of DNA methylation and gene expression, and triple analysis of DNA methylation, gene expression and gene-associated histone acetylation in cancer cells using arrayed expressed CpG island sequence tags (ECISTs). ECISTs correspond to genomic DNA fragments comprising GC-rich segments along with promoter and/or exon (e.g., first exon) portions of genes. The GC-rich segments are useful for screening hypermethylated CpG sites in cancer cells, while the corresponding promoter and exon-containing portions are useful for determining corresponding transcript levels and assessing histone acetylation. Also provided are high-throughput methods for either confirming methylation-dependent gene silencing, or identifying therapeutically effective demethylating agents, using the ECIST array panels to identify hypermethylated loci, and measure expression levels thereof after cellular exposure to demethylating agents.
