Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating osteoporosis which comprises neuropeptide Y as an active ingredient. The neuropeptide Y according to the present invention reduces the expression of a cell adhesion factor in osteoblasts in which a Y1 receptor is present, and consequently an effect of releasing a haematopoietic stem cell from bone marrow into the blood is excellent. When a haematopoietic stem cell is released into the blood, the number of osteoclasts which induce an osteoporotic lesion by differentiation from the haematopoietic stem cell decreases, and thus progression of a bone erosion caused by osteoclasts can be prevented. Accordingly, the neuropeptide Y which is an active ingredient of the composition of the present invention is useful as a therapeutic agent for osteoporosis.

According to the present invention, when ASM is partially removed in an Alzheimer's disease model mouse, that is when ASM is inhibited therein, such when as an Alzheimer's disease model mouse with a partial removal of ASM is in a parabionic union with an Alzheimer's disease model mouse, or when an Alzheimer's disease model mouse is injected with the serum of an Alzheimer's disease model mouse from which ASM gene has been removed, the deposition of ?-amyloid in the brain tissue is inhibited and the ability to learn and remember are improved, and the present invention confirms such superb effects. Accordingly, ASM inhibitor can be effectively used to prevent or treat degenerative neurological diseases.

Abstract: A cold crucible induction melter includes an induction coil and a melting furnace. The induction coil serves as a water cooled segment to directly transmit an induced current to a molten material in the cold crucible induction melter (CCIM), improving energy efficiency. Simultaneously, the structure of the CCIM is simplified and enables a smooth discharge even when the molten material consists of a ceramic or a metal material with a high melting point. The cold crucible induction melter heats and melts waste using an induced current which is generated in a water cooled segment by a high frequency current that is applied to the induction coil. The water cooled segment and the induction coil are disposed in a vertical direction so that the induced current that is generated by the induction coil is directly transmitted to the molten material.

Abstract: A method for preventing misdiagnosis of an oil level sensor may include determining whether a driving status of a vehicle satisfies a first diagnosis condition, a second diagnosis condition or both. When the first diagnosis condition is satisfied, the method may include measuring oil levels, calculating a first average of the measured oil levels, and comparing the calculated first average of the measured oil levels with a predetermined reference oil level. When the second diagnosis condition is satisfied, the method may include measuring oil levels, calculating a second average of the measured oil levels, and comparing the calculated second average of the measured oil levels with the predetermined reference oil level. The method may also include warning an excess of oil when the first, the second or both first and second averages of the measured oil levels are higher than the predetermined reference oil level.
