Under the trade name Mircera, Roche Pharmaceuticals received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2008 to market a continuous erythropoiesis receptor activator (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) for the treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease, including in those undergoing dialysis.
[3] [1] [4] [5] NV-5138 works by binding to and modulating sestrin2, a cellular sensor protein for the amino acid leucine, which is a natural activator of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway.
The use of activation and coactivation allows for greater control over when, where and how much of a protein is produced. [1] [7] [16] This enables each cell to be able to quickly respond to environmental or physiological changes and helps to mitigate any damage that may occur if it were otherwise unregulated. [1] [7]
Tetraacetylethylenediamine, commonly abbreviated as TAED, is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3 C(O)) 2 NCH 2 CH 2 N(C(O)CH 3) 2. This white solid is commonly used as a bleach activator in laundry detergents and for paper pulp. It is produced by acetylation of ethylenediamine.
The tool's design is based on a dental impactor, [6] a device that taps dental amalgam into cavities in teeth. [4] Activator I was patented by Activator Methods International on September 26, 1978. [4] [7] [8] Activator II was released, with an added "impedance head", in 1994. [4]
Activator may refer to: Activator (genetics) , a DNA-binding protein that regulates one or more genes by increasing the rate of transcription Activator (phosphor) , a type of dopant used in phosphors and scintillators
NOBS is the main bleach activator used in the U.S.A. and Japan. [4] Compared to TAED, which is the predominant bleach activator used in Europe, NOBS is efficient at much lower temperatures. At 20 °C NOBS is 100 times more soluble than TAED in water. [5]
Alteplase, sold under the brand name Activase among others, is a biosynthetic form of human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). It is a thrombolytic medication used to treat acute ischemic stroke, acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (a type of heart attack), pulmonary embolism associated with low blood pressure, and blocked central venous catheter.
