Abstract: An opening and closing system includes a first human detection sensor configured to detect a vehicle user who enters a first area defined on a periphery of a vehicle body, a lamp visible by the vehicle user who enters the first area, and a control device configured to control an unlocking operation of the lock device, a closing operation of the striker device, a pop-up operation of the striker device, and switching on and off of the lamp. The control device switches on the lamp when the vehicle user is detected by the first human detection sensor and starts the controlling of the unlocking operation of the lock device and the closing operation and the pop-up operation of the striker device in response to the lamp being switched on.

Abstract: A base plate is fixed to one of a door and a vehicle body of a vehicle. A latch is pivotally secured to the base plate and engages with a striker of the other of the door and the vehicle body, thereby connecting the door to the vehicle body. A ratchet is pivotally secured to the base plate and engages with the latch to allow the door to be held in a closed position. The base plate is fixed to the door or vehicle body with bolts. The striker which engages with the latch is positioned substantially on a straight line between center of the two bolts.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the treatment of cancer (tumor) by administering to a patient in need of such treatment a first agent that inhibits Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) in combination with a second agent that inhibits a signaling pathway other than the one stimulated by HGF.

Abstract: A base plate is provided in one of a door and a vehicle body of a vehicle. A latch is pivotally secured to the base plate and engages with a striker of the other of the door and the vehicle body. A ratchet engages with the latch to allow the door to be held in a closed position. An emergency-operating portion is mounted to the base plate and manually operated at the interior of the vehicle, so that the ratchet is released from the latch, which is then released from the striker. The door can be opened.

Abstract: A compound or its salt that regulates (preferably inhibits) the activity of a protein comprising the same or substantially the same amino acid sequence as represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, a compound or its salt that regulates (preferably inhibits) the expression of a gene for the protein, an antisense polynucleotide comprising the entire or part of a base sequence complementary or substantially complementary to a base sequence of a polynucleotide encoding the protein or its partial peptide, an antibody against the protein, etc. can be used as a prophylactic/therapeutic agent for cancer, etc., an apoptosis inducing agent, or the like.

Abstract: An inside door handle unit to be installed to the inside surface of a door of an automotive vehicle. The inside door handle unit includes a body attached to the door of the vehicle. An inside door handle is rotatably supported to the body and pivotal around an axis. A door lock knob is rotatably supported to the body and pivotal around the axis. The handle and the door lock knob are connected to the door lock device. A spring is provided to bias the handle in one rotational direction of the handle. The handle is rotatably supported relative to the body under the action of a fitting connection between the counterpart device of the body and the counterpart device of the handle, while the lock knob is rotatably supported relative to the body under the action of another fitting connection between the counterpart device of the body and the counterpart device of the lock knob. The handle and the lock knob are independently rotatably supported on the body.
