Abstract: In a driving system, first and second inverters are connected to a driving motor, one end of a stator winding through which 3-phase current flows is connected to an output line of the first inverter, and the other end of the stator winding is connected to an output line of the second inverter. A winding pattern of the driving motor includes: coils wound in slots defined in the stator and to which 3-phase current is applied; coils wound on innermost and outermost sides based on a direction toward a rotating shaft of the driving motor in the slots, and being energized by different AC phases; and coils disposed between a first coil located on the outermost side and a second coil located on the innermost side, and being energized by the same AC phases as those of the first and second coils.

Abstract: The present invention relates to Mitochondrial Fission Factor (MFF)-derived peptides or peptide mimetics and to methods of making MFF-derived peptides or peptide mimetics. Also provided are methods of treating a disease in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a MFF-derived peptide or peptide mimetic.

Abstract: Methods of stimulating anti-tumor activity in a subject with cancer are provided. The methods include administering to a subject in need thereof a low dose low dosage of a composition comprising a molecule that inhibits Hsp90 linked to a mitochondria-penetrating moiety; and administering to the subject an effective amount of an inhibitor of autophagy or glycolysis.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to DNA aptamer specifically binding to periostin, which is cancer-related protein, a composition for inhibiting cancer and/or cancer metastasis and/or a composition for diagnosis of cancer and/or cancer metastasis, comprising the same as an active ingredient, wherein the aptamer has different binding mechanism from the existing antibodies, and thus, may inhibit and diagnose cancer/cancer metastasis more effectively.

Abstract: Disclosed are a DNA aptamer specifically binding to the Her2 (ERBB2) receptor involved in the onset of breast cancer, a composition for the suppression of cancer metastasis comprising the same as an active ingredient, and a composition for the diagnosis of cancer comprising the same as an active ingredient. Due to its binding mechanism being different from that of the conventional antibody, the aptamer can be effectively used for suppressing cancer metastasis and diagnosing cancer.

Abstract: A method for inhibiting tumor cell migration or metastasis of a cancer in a mammalian subject comprises one or more of the steps of administering to a subject a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a molecule that: suppresses focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activity or phosphorylation; suppresses ULK1 kinase activity; suppresses activation or signaling of the mTORC1 (Ser757) pathway; activates AMPK; activates FIP200; or activates LKB1, in a cancer cell. Still another method of inhibiting tumor cell migration involves inhibiting phosphorylation of ULK1 on Ser757 in subjects with lung cancer. Suppressing activation or signaling of the mTORC1 (Ser757) pathway in subjects is in one aspect useful in treating lung cancer.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for identifying the plurality of aptamers that bind to different sites of a target molecule and methods for using the same, for example, in sandwich assays. In particular, the plurality of aptamers binding to different sites of the target molecules is identified from a library of aptamers identified from the same SELEX process.

Abstract: The present inventors show that a brief exposure to EGF stimulates insulin secretion glucose-independently via a Ca2+ influx- and PLD2-dependent mechanism. Furthermore, the present invention shows that EGF is a novel secretagogue that lowers plasma glucose levels in normal and diabetic mice, suggesting the potential for EGF treatment in diabetes.
