HTS screening was performed regarding cell proliferation, one of symptoms of senescence. As a result, KB1541, which was the most effective on cell proliferation, was earned. The present invention described how the compound regulates cell proliferation and senescence. The present invention uncovered what proteins interacted with the compound using streptavidin-magnetic beads after treating with biotin-connected KB1541. Consequently, it was identified that mitochondrial proteins interacted with the compound. In ATP assay, electron microscope and IP assay, the inventors identified that the compound regulated mitochondrial proteins and thereby increased ATP production as well as recovered senescence.

Pharmaceutical composition for treating or preventing aging or age-related diseases

A camera module according to the present invention may comprise: a barrel that accommodates a lens therein; a printed circuit board formed under the barrel and mounted with an image sensor; a body portion integrally formed with the barrel; a holder comprising a leg portion formed by being extended downward from the lower end of the body portion to the same height as the image plane of the lens; and a fixing portion formed downward from the leg portion to have a predetermined thickness to fix the holder to the printed circuit board, wherein the thickness of the fixing portion may be equal to the height from the upper surface of the printed circuit board to the image plane of the image sensor.

The present invention is directed to an ultrasound system and a method for reformatting a planar image. The ultrasound system includes a volume data acquiring unit and an image processing unit. The volume data acquiring unit may acquire volume data by transmitting/receiving ultrasound signals to/from a target object of an un-echoic area. The image processing unit may perform inverse volume rendering upon the volume data to form a 3-dimensional image showing the target object and set a region of interest (ROI) on the target object in response to a user input. The image processor detects data corresponding to the ROI from the volume data and reformats the detected data to form a planar image.

Ultrasound system and method for forming an ultrasound image

There is provided an image processing system, which includes: a volume data processor for forming volume data based on image signals and setting at least one frame in the volume data; an AGC/LGC parameter setting unit for setting axial gain compensation (AGC) and lateral gain compensation (LGC) parameters based on the frame; a gain parameter setting unit for setting a gain parameter based on the frame; an amplifying unit for performing AGC/LGC upon image signals based on the AGC/LGC parameters and amplifying the image signals based on the gain parameter; a brightness adjusting unit for analyzing intensities of pixels included in the volume data formed based on the image signal performing the AGC/LGC and adjusting the gain, and adjusting brightness of the volume data based on the analysis result; and an image processor for forming images based on the frame and the volume data.

System and method for processing an image

The present invention relates to an apparatus for processing an ultrasound image of a target object including a periodically moving object, including: an ROI setting unit for setting regions of interest (ROIs) to each of frames constituting ultrasound volume data acquired from a target object; a VOI setting unit for selecting a predetermined number of first reference frames from the ultrasound volume data and setting a predetermined number of volumes of interest (VOIs) by combining ROIs of the first reference frames with ROIs of frames adjacent to the reference frames; a motion compensating unit for processing the VOIs to compensate a motion of the target object; a correlation coefficient curve calculating unit for calculating a correlation coefficient curve for a predetermined interval at each VOI; a period setting unit for setting a moving period of the moving object based on the correlation coefficient curve in the volume data; and an ultrasound volume data reconstructing unit for reconstructing the ultrasound volume data based on the moving period.
