It was found that bacteria belonging to the genus Clostridium induce accumulation of regulatory T cells (Treg cells) in the colon. Moreover, the present inventors found that regulatory T cells (Treg cells) induced by from these bacteria suppressed proliferation of effector T-cells. From these findings, the present inventors found that the use of bacteria belonging to the genus Clostridium or a physiologically active substance derived therefrom made it possible to induce proliferation or accumulation of regulatory T cells (Treg cells), and further to suppress immune functions.

Provided are a method for extracting a correlation to generate 3D motion data, and a motion capture system and method using the extracting method to easily compose a humanoid character on a real background image. Cameras for motion capture are installed in a real background capture location (such as an outdoor location or in a studio), and the correlation between motion capture fixed cameras and a moving camera for capturing a real background image is obtained to capture 3D motion data prior to performing motion capture for integrating a humanoid character, so that even when there is interaction between a 3D figure and an actual prop such as a chair or table within the captured space, a humanoid character can easily be composed with the real background.

The present invention provides a use of a therapeutically effective amount of 6-(3-chloro-2-fluorobenzyl)-1-[(2S)-1-hydroxy-3-methylbutan-2-yl]-7-methoxy-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (herein referred to as Compound I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for the production of an agent for the treatment in a patient. The invention further provides a use of Compound I or a salt thereof for an agent for inhibition of integrase activity. Compound I or a salt thereof is also effective in inhibiting the replication of a retrovirus resistant to at least one anti-retroviral drug. In the use of the invention, Compound I or a salt thereof may be administered alone or in combination with at least one anti-retroviral drug other than Compound I or a salt thereof. The present invention also provides kits comprising Compound I or a salt thereof.

The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising first particles and second particles, the first particles comprising at least one opioid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the second particles comprising at least one opioid antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the first and second particles cannot be distinguished from one another by visually detectable and/or physical properties, wherein the release of the opioid antagonist occurs continuously over a period of 30 minutes to as much as 8 hours after oral administration, and a dosage form containing it for peroral administration. In addition, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition that comprises a particle with the opioid and with the opioid antagonist with the above-mentioned release characteristics.

A water-impermeable waterproof asphalt concrete composition having styrene isoprene styrene (SIS). The composition's waterproof performance due to its high cohesion and adhesion. The composition is durable and is not easily rutted, aged and/or stripped. In addition, the composition has a performance grade of PG 82-34, and can prevent water penetration and potholes. Furthermore, the asphalt concrete for prime coating and waterproof asphalt concrete can be applied to form an integrated structure by using a mixing/feeding system and can also be easily placed on site.

A method of packaging and distributing substantially dehydrated shaving strips, wherein a solid strip of substantially dehydrated shaving lotion is provided. The shaving strips are cut or pressed into discreet units. Alternatively, the dehydrated shaving composition can be deposed onto a water soluble carrier strip. A plurality of shaving strips are then packaged into a container and sold as a unit. A user can then remove one or more of the shaving strips from the container, and mix with water to hydrate the shaving cream.

A process is simplified in a device in which desired materials are arranged in desired regions. After forming a film including a second material and a third material on a substrate having a first material on the surface, the second material and the third material are transferred utilizing the surface tension of the third material by using energy irradiation so that the second material comes on the first area of the surface of the substrate and the third material comes on the second area of the surface of the substrate. A fine device can be manufactured easily.

An optical communication equipment comprises shared optical sources 88a-88d to be shared by communication nodes 100a-100d, the wavelengths of optical signals 76a-76d are converted into desired wavelengths lambdaa-lambdad according to the addressed information of the corresponding optical label signals 77a-77d by using the shared optical sources 88a-88d, and routed to the addressed communication nodes without being converted into electrical signals by using the wavelength routing function of the cyclic-wavelength arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) 120. The load of each communication node can be reduced by incorporating the multi-wavelength optical sources, which can be shared among individual communication nodes, into the router 80. Further, each communication node is provided with an optical gate or the like for returning the optical signal to the communication node from which the optical signal has een transmitted through the router 80 in order to adjust the transmission time lag between the optical signal and the corresponding optical label signal by the controllers 110a-110d.

Strategies that dramatically reduce leaching of water-soluble metal-containing biocides from treated biodegradable products. Aqueous, preservative compositions of the present invention incorporate one or more water-soluble metal species having biocidal activity and one or more agents that increase the leaching resistance of these metal species when impregnated into biodegradable products. Using one or more of these agents allows usage rates of the biocide impregnants to be dramatically lowered at the time of impregnation of the products. Because less of the metal biocide leaches in the presence of these agent(s), less biocide has to be added in order to meet desired loading goals. Generally, an agent of the present invention that reduces leaching of metal biocides is water soluble, is substantially nonionic in aqueous media, has a molecular weight greater than about 100, and has a vapor pressure less than that of water at standard temperature. Preferred agents are those including at least 10 weight percent, more preferably at least 16 weight percent, and even more preferably at least 20 weight percent oxygen. Examples of these preferred agents include (poly)ethers and/or nonionic surfactants including one or more oxyalkylene units in the backbone and/or as substituents of the molecule.
