Abstract: A method for regulating immunity and/or inhibiting dendritic cell maturation is provided, especially for treating an allergic disease, treating an autoimmune disease, and/or preventing an organ transplant rejection. Also provided is a combination for preparing tolerogenic dendritic cells, comprising (1) an amino acid-chelated zinc, and (2) a dendritic cell medium.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the preparation of a Crassocephalum crepidioides extract, and the extract prepared thereby. The present invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition/combination comprising the Crassocephalum crepidioides extract. The use of the extract and the composition/combination comprising the extract in the prevention or treatment of cancer is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates a use of Antrodia cinnamomea composition, consisting of 50-99% (W/W) of Antrodia cinnamomea solid-state cultivated mycelium water/alcohol extracts and 1-50% (W/W) of cut-log wood cultivated fruiting body water/alcohol extracts, in the preparation of auxiliary agents for chemotherapy. The Antrodia cinnamomea composition of the present invention has proven effects on improving the anti-cancer effects when combined with chemotherapy drugs, and reducing the toxicity and side effects caused by chemotherapy treatments. The composition of present invention can be applied to use as an auxiliary for anti-cancer agents.

Abstract: A tilt sensor includes a body; a first emitter and a first receiver being spacedly disposed on the body, the first receiver being used for receiving a first signal emitted from the first emitter, a second emitter and a second receiver being spacedly disposed on the body, the second receiver being used for receiving a second signal emitted from the second emitter, and an arm rotatably secured on the body. As the tilt sensor device is in a first tilt state, the arm blocks the first receiver to receive the first signal. As in a second tilt state, the arm blocks the second receiver to receive the second signal. As in a third tilt state, the arm blocks none of the first receiver and the second receiver to receive the first signal and to receive the second signal respectively.
