Abstract: The invention provides isolated nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of KinI-3, antibodies to KinI-3, methods of screening for KinI-3 modulators using biologically active KinI-3, and kits for screening for KinI-3 modulators.

Abstract: A tissue graft product includes at least one collagen layer comprised of submucosa or renal capsule tissue having slits therein to provide a mesh pattern which in turn establishes a graft structure that is highly deformable. The slits and mesh pattern provide for improved characteristics when utilized as a tissue graft and in particular an external wound care. Preferred devices have multiple submucosa, renal capsule or other collagenous extracellular matrix layers, providing a substantial and lasting scaffold for tissue ingrowth during wound treatment.

Abstract: Described herein is a collaborative and Web-based whiteboarding tool for creating, collecting, storing, managing and performing searches on graphical customer information and information related thereto. When implementing the present invention, the company retains possession of and control over the sales-related diagrams generated by its sales force. Participants in a collaborative Web session are provided with one or more palettes of diagram primitives, which reduce the whiteboarding (diagram) task to an easily mastered series of object drag-and-drops, line connections, and text blurbs. The diagrams, as well as the diagram primitives (including, for example, icons, diagrams and portions thereof) are stored in a selectably accessible database. In addition, the diagram primitives may have fully searchable information associated therewith, in the form of metadata or tags, for example.

Abstract: A software tool enables sales organizations and sales representatives to graphically track past purchases from customers, as well as the customer's current holdings and install base of products and services, irrespective of whether the current holdings originated from the sales organization, from a competitor or from some non-competing supplier of goods or services. By tracking not only past purchases, but the totality of the customer's holdings, the sales representative may draw inferences from the customer's current installed base of products, identify new opportunities and potentially sell additional or complementary products to the customer. The tracked information is stored in a central repository such as a database, enabling the employer to maintain control over the information, thereby enabling the information to persist even after the sales representative has left the employ of his or her current employer.
