Abstract: In aspects, the disclosure provides a method of differentiating a malignant tumor from a non-malignant tumor in a mammal having a tumor comprising determining in a sample from the mammal the level of one or more of: (1) transthyretin (TTR) RNA or protein, (2) dual oxidase 2 (DUOX2) RNA or protein, and (3) G-protein coupled receptor 179 (GPR179) RNA or protein.

Abstract: The trailer comprises a rectangular framework, a loading box fixedly mounted on the framework and including a horizontal platform, and a group of freely rotatable carrying wheels which allow the trailer to be pulled. The trailer is characterized in that two frames are disposed underneath the framework and are arranged to engage one frame into the other one between an expanded position of the trailer where the frames are drawn apart from one another and a retracted position where the frames are drawn in towards one another. The framework holds the frames with supports, that are arranged to permit a simultaneous transverse and longitudinal movement of the frames with respect to the framework when said frames are moved between an expanded position and a retracted position.

Abstract: The trailer comprises a rectangular framework, a loading box fixedly mounted on the framework and including an horizontal platform, and a group of freely rotatable carrying wheels enabling to pull the trailer where the frames are drawn apart from one another and a retracted position where the frames are drawn in towards one another. The framework holds the frames by means of supports, that are arranged to permit a simultaneous transversal and longitudinal movement of the frames with respect to the framework when said frames are moved between a widened position and a drawn in position. The carrying wheels are respectively fixed to the two frames, and an articulation device enables to cause the frames to move by transversal and longitudinal sliding in the supports between the widened position and said drawn in position and vice versa. Longitudinal members are adapted to be juxtaposed relatively to the horizontal platform on both sides of the latter in expanded position of said trailer.

Abstract: A molded, self-supporting, composite part or panel for automotive and similar applications comprises a vapor impervious wood fiber filled polymeric (preferably polypropylene) sheet adhered to one major face of a corrugated paperboard medium and a layer of fibrous insulation (preferably glass fiber) or a second wood fiber filled polymeric sheet adhered to a second major face of the corrugated paperboard medium. The sheet and corrugated medium provide the structural strength for the composite and the fibrous insulation, when used, provides the composite with good sound absorption properties. The wood fiber filled polymeric sheet is formed during the molding process from a wood and polymeric fiber sheet. The heat and pressure of the molding process cause the polymeric fibers to melt and flow about the wood fibers to form the wood fiber filled sheet and bond the sheet securely to the corrugated medium.
