  • Patent number: 8026229
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of 2-alkoxyestrogen sulfamates of general formula I wherein R1 and R2 independently represent H, methyl, C1-C4 acyl, benzoyl R3 represents C1-C4 alkyl or a group of formula CnFmHo, wherein n=1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, m>1, and m+o=2n+1, R4 and R5 in each case represent H or, together, a methylene group or an additional double bond, R6 represents H, R7 represents OH, OC1-C4-alkyl, OC1-C11-acyl or OSO2NR1R2, the dashed lines in the B and C rings of the steroid skeleton additionally representing up to two double bonds, for the production of a medical drug for the treatment of tumor diseases which can be affected positively by inhibiting the tubulin polymerization. The inventive compounds are distinguished by the 2-alkoxy substitution in conjunction with the 17-hydroxy substitution. They have a special effect with regard to inhibiting tubulin polymerization and can be used, for example, for the treatment of prostate cancers.

  • Publication number: 20100063681
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method by which image data from the terrain lying in front of a vehicle (1) in the direction of travel are detected, and from which data steering commands to influence the direction and/or the speed of travel are generated. The invention relates further to an arrangement for steering an agricultural vehicle (1) according to this method. According to the invention, the problem is solved in that prominent objects (3) are selected by means of the image data, the distance between the vehicle (1) and the prominent objects (3) is determined, and the steering commands are generated from the image data which correspond to the objects and from the changes of distance between the vehicle (1) and the objects (3).

  • Publication number: 20020092834
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for coating a substrate with a plasma arc torch, and with such a plasma arc torch the powdery additive is to be heated, melted open and accelerated towards the surface with plasma gas generated in the plasma arc torch, and with an additional laser beam. In the plasma arc torch, an annular cathode is located or a plurality of individual cathodes are arranged about a longitudinal axis. Gas is supplied into a plasma space which is located between such an annular cathode or the plurality of cathodes, and such an annular anode. With the invention, coating is to be allowed to be formed with a higher speed and deposition rate, respectively, with respect to the conventional solution with the same and increased quality, respectively, and the directional independence for the formation of the coating is to be ensured.
