Publication number: 20170096493Abstract: The present invention provides an anti-human Notch4 antibody or a Notch4 binding fragment thereof that may have neutralizing activity against human Notch4, as well as a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same as the active ingredient. The present inventors obtained a mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody that has high neutralizing activity and binding affinity towards human Notch4 and determined the complementarity determining region (CDR) sequence of said mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody. This enabled the production of a humanized antibody comprising the variable region of heavy and light chains as well as the CDR sequence of said mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2016Publication date: April 6, 2017Applicant: Eisai R&D Management Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshimasa Sakamoto, Yusuke Adachi, Junji Matsui, Yu Kato, Yoichi Ozawa, Takanori Abe, Ken Ito, Yuya Nakazawa, Sho Tachino, Katsuhisa Suzuki, Kishan Agarwala, Kana Hoshino, Masahiko Katayama

Publication number: 20160328973Abstract: A surrounding area monitoring apparatus receives visual field information about a driver of a surrounding vehicle of a self vehicle, and decides whether the self vehicle is outside the visual field of the surrounding vehicle or not in accordance with the visual field information. Accordingly, it can learn the present dynamic visual field range of the driver of the surrounding vehicle actually traveling around the self vehicle, and obtain more accurate visual field range. Thus, it can appropriately give information that is really necessary and suppress giving unnecessary information.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2014Publication date: November 10, 2016Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Masahiko KATAYAMA, Tetsuji HAGA

Patent number: 9126564Abstract: A communication apparatus for a vehicle achieves reduction in size and cost of a portable unit by making unnecessary an oscillation circuit and a battery in the portable unit. The apparatus is provided with an on-board unit installed on the vehicle and a portable unit carried by a user of the vehicle. A response signal is sent from the portable unit to the on-board unit in response to a signal transmitted from the on-board unit. The portable unit includes a power generation circuit for supplying electric power to circuits in the portable unit by a power generation radio wave sent from the on-board unit, and the on-board unit sends a communication signal after sending the power generation radio wave.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2005Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: MITSUBISHI DENKI KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Masayoshi Ono, Masato Sumida, Tetsuya Ooba, Masahiko Katayama, Naohisa Uehara

Patent number: 8054053Abstract: When power is turned on and in a state in which a power supply voltage is not supplied from the switching power supply to the second clock generating section, the first clock generating section generates a first clock signal with a frequency that is preset in the first clock generating section, without using a third clock signal from the frequency dividing section, to cause the first switching section to operate. By the first switching section operating, a power supply voltage is supplied from the switching power supply to the second clock generating section. After the second clock generating section has started to operate, a third clock signal (a clock signal obtained by dividing the frequency of a second clock signal generated by the second clock generating section) is supplied from the frequency dividing section to the first clock generating section.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2008Date of Patent: November 8, 2011Assignee: Onkyo CorporationInventor: Masahiko Katayama

Patent number: 7400243Abstract: A communication apparatus for a vehicle can achieve an inexpensive technique for determining whether a portable unit exists inside or outside the vehicle without depending upon LF band radio waves through contactless communication using high frequency band radio waves by separating a reader function of a reader/writer into the portable unit and an on-board unit. The apparatus includes at least one ID transmitter installed on a vehicle and sends a transmitter ID possessed by itself in response to reception of a radio wave, an on-board unit installed on the vehicle for radiating a radio wave to the ID transmitter, a portable unit that receives the transmitter ID sent by the ID transmitter, and an ID communication section for sending the transmitter ID from the portable unit 3 to the on-board unit. The on-board unit determines the position of the portable unit based on the transmitter ID received from the portable unit.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2005Date of Patent: July 15, 2008Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masato Sumida, Masayoshi Ono, Tetsuya Ooba, Masahiko Katayama, Naohisa Uehara
