  • Publication number: 20130312130
    Abstract: Provided are methods for producing a reprogrammed fibroblast or epithelial cell. The methods include growing a plurality of fibroblasts or epithelial cells in monolayer culture to confluency; and disrupting the monolayer culture to place at least a fraction of the plurality of fibroblasts or epithelial cells into suspension culture under conditions sufficient to form one or more embryoid body-like spheres, wherein the one or more embryoid body-like spheres comprise one or more reprogrammed fibroblasts or epithelial cells that express one or more markers not expressed prior to the disrupting step. Also provided are reprogrammed fibroblasts or epithelial cells produced by the disclosed methods, formulations that include reprogrammed fibroblasts or epithelial cells, methods for using the reprogrammed fibroblasts or epithelial cells, methods for producing chimeric non-human mammals that include one or more sphere-induced Pluripotent Cells (siPS), and chimeric non-human mammals produced thereby.

  • Patent number: 8327007
    Abstract: Systems and methods for SNMP access are disclosed. A computer-implemented method of SNMP access includes mapping a MIB object in a MIB into an XML object in an XML document, generating a class library based on the XML document, creating a service object representative of a service associated with SNMP access to the MIB object, and linking the class library according to the service object to perform the service.

  • Publication number: 20110243898
    Abstract: Provided are methods for producing a reprogrammed fibroblast. The methods can include growing a plurality of fibroblasts in monolayer culture to confluency; and disrupting the monolayer culture to place at least a fraction of the plurality of fibroblasts into suspension culture under conditions sufficient to form one or more embryoid body-like spheres, wherein the one or more embryoid body-like spheres comprise one or more reprogrammed fibroblasts that express one or more markers not expressed by a fibroblast growing in the monolayer culture prior to the disrupting step. Also provided are reprogrammed fibroblasts produced by the disclosed methods, formulations that include reprogrammed fibroblasts, and methods for treating an injury to a tissue in a subject by administering to a subject in need thereof a composition of reprogrammed fibroblast cells in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

  • Publication number: 20090328192
    Abstract: A method for managing a network based Virtual Private Network (VPN) configuration is disclosed. The method includes configuring a VPN policy using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) of a centralized management server for at least two network devices. A VPN tunnel is established through the GUI of the centralized management server between the two network devices by applying the configured VPN policy.
