  • Publication number: 20240330509
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for managing personal data on a client computer, in which personal data associated with the client computer is identified by a policy management module. An analysis may be performed for the client computer by a server using fake personal data. To identify applications which may attempt to access the personal data, the fake personal data is tracked for access on the client computer. A policy is then created that disallows access of the personal data by any applications identified by the analysis of the client computer as accessing the fake personal data. The policy is then assigned to the client computer.

  • Patent number: 12063306
    Abstract: A method for locating a mobile device which is not in possession of the owner using an owner verification server. A mobile network operator server sends a message to the owner verification server requesting verification of ownership. The owner verification server retrieves ownership status and transmits a request to the mobile network operator server to transmit location tracking data when the ownership status indicates that the device is not in the owner's possession. The owner verification server forwards the location tracking data to the device owner.

  • Publication number: 20200283499
    Abstract: The invention provides humanized antibody and other antigen-binding fragments that are specific for the newly identified dendritic cell marker BDCA-2. These agents may be used for treatment of conditions caused or mediated by dendritic cells, including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The invention includes pharmaceutical compositions that contain a means for specifically binding BDCA-2, methods of preparing therapeutic products, and their use in therapy. Methods are also provided for screening, manufacture, and use of specific antibodies that identify other dendritic cell markers.

  • Patent number: 10407486
    Abstract: This invention provides a method of detecting BDCA-2 protein in a biological sample. The sample is combined with an antibody or antigen binding fragment under conditions where the antibody or fragment will bind to BDCA-2 protein in the sample to form a complex, which is detected by formation of complex with the antibody. BDCA-2 protein may be displayed on the surface of dendritic cells. Binding of the antibody may result in down-regulation of type 1 interferon production, down-regulation of Th1 immune responses, induction of intracellular Ca++ mobilization, and/or polarization of an immune response towards Th2.

Each jaw has a jaw face formed on one side thereof and threads formed on the opposite side thereof. A nut is rotatably mounted on the body in engagement with the jaw threads so that rotation of the nut moves the jaws axially within the passageways. A locking member, in a first axial position, is rotatable with respect to the driver housing. In a second axial position, it operatively engages the housing and the nut so that the locking member is rotationally held to the housing and the nut so that the nut is rotationally held to the housing. The locking member is axially reciprocal between the first axial position and the second axial position.
