Abstract: A biomarker composition for predicting susceptibility to a therapeutic agent for neurofibromatosis by using Ras activity; and a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating neurofibromatosis, including a Ras activity inhibitor. The biomarker composition can accurately diagnose susceptibility to a therapeutic agent for neurofibromatosis by measuring the expression levels of a GTP-bound and activated Ras (Ras-GTP) protein and an activated p-ERK protein or a gene encoding the same in a biological sample of an individual. The pharmaceutical composition inhibits the activity of Ras proteins, and thus can be effectively used for the prevention or treatment of neurofibromatosis in which the activity of the Ras proteins is increased.

Abstract: An organic light emitting diode includes a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; and a first emitting part including a first emitting material layer and positioned between the first and second electrodes, wherein the first emitting material layer includes a first p-type host and a first n-type host, and wherein the first p-type host is represented by Formula 1, and the first n-type host is represented by Formula 3.

The display device further includes an emitting element disposed on the thin film transistor in the display area and including a first electrode, an emitting layer and a second electrode, an encapsulating part disposed on the emitting element, a first line disposed in the non-display area and including a same metallic material as the first electrode and connected to the second electrode, and a plurality of first dams disposed on the first line. The first line includes a plurality of open parts, and the plurality of first dams are disposed on the plurality of open parts.

Abstract: A washing machine and a method for controlling the same are disclosed. The washing machine includes a plurality of washing devices, each of which includes a heater. Based on a target temperature of wash water heated by one heater of any one of the washing devices, the washing machine changes a target temperature setting environment of wash water heated by the remaining heater. The washing machine includes a first heater to heat wash water stored in a first tub, a second heater to heat wash water stored in a second tub, a control panel to provide a target temperature setting menu for setting a target temperature of the wash water stored in the first tub, and a controller to drive the first heater and the second heater. The controller changes the target temperature setting menu supplied from the control panel in response to the second target temperature.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mask. The mask includes: a body part covering respiratory organs of a user; and a hanging part provided at each of both sides of the body part to allow the body part to be fixed to the respiratory organs of the user. The body part includes a chin cover part of a chin part, which forms a lower portion and surrounds chin of the user.

Abstract: A washing machine and a method for controlling the same are disclosed. The washing machine includes a plurality of washing devices, each of which includes a heater. Based on a target temperature of wash water heated by one heater of any one of the washing devices, the washing machine changes a target temperature setting environment of wash water heated by the remaining heater. The washing machine includes a first heater to heat wash water stored in a first tub, a second heater to heat wash water stored in a second tub, a control panel to provide a target temperature setting menu for setting a target temperature of the wash water stored in the first tub, and a controller to drive the first heater and the second heater. The controller changes the target temperature setting menu supplied from the control panel in response to the second target temperature.

Abstract: A washing machine that performs refresh washing in which smell or mold that permeates laundry can be removed, and a method of controlling the washing machine. When clothes that are kept for a long time without being worn or laundries that are hardly contaminated due to a short wearing time are washed, a refresh washing course in which various smell or mold that permeates laundry can be removed using a very small amount of detergent, is performed. Thus, overuse of detergent caused by an excessive use of detergent can be prevented, and since the necessity for rinsing is low due to the use of the very small amount of detergent, an intermediate dehydration operation may be omitted, or an intermediate dehydration revolutions per minute (rpm) may be reduced so that washing and rinsing operations do not need to be excessively performed and thus damage of laundry is reduced.
