  • Publication number: 20210371464
    Abstract: Provided are a peptide with a cytoprotective effect against environmental pollutants and a use thereof. The peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, or 3 directly binds to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (hereinafter, referred to as TCDD), known as being the most toxic among the class of dioxins, to prevent dermal penetration and the activation mechanism of AhR by TCDD and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons contained in fine dust. Such a direct cytoprotective effect against environmental pollutants is distinguished from preexisting methods that are configured to indirectly block opportunities to contact these materials or to reduce toxicity through barrier reinforcement.

  • Patent number: 11086807
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system includes a processing circuit(s) allocating a page of system memory address space to a device. The allocating includes the processing circuits(s) obtaining base address registers of the device in a bus and determining a portion of the page of the system memory address space to allocate to the base address registers. The processing circuits(s) sorts the base address registers, in a descending order, according to their alignments and adds sizes of the sorted base address registers to determine the portion of the page. The processing circuit(s) determines a remainder of the page: a difference between a size of the page and the portion of the page. The processing circuit(s) requests a virtual resource of a size equal to the remainder and allocates the page to the sorted base address registers and to the virtual resource.
