A press-molding material includes discontinuous reinforcing fibers having an average fiber length of 3 mm to 100 mm, and a thermoplastic resin as a matrix. The press-molding material has a certain reference plane; at least one standable plane; and at least one self-laminatable region. A portion of the standable plane is included in the self-laminatable region.

Press-molding material including discontinuous reinforcing fibers and thermoplastic resin as matrix, shaped product thereof, and manufacturing method for same

According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a hollow structure body having a hollow structure, in which a first shaped product constituted by a first fiber-reinforced resin material containing first reinforcing fibers and a first matrix resin and a second shaped product constituted by a second fiber-reinforced resin material containing second reinforcing fibers and a second matrix resin are combined,

Hollow structure body and vehicular component

The present invention relates to a novel method of obtaining a factor involved in appetite control and/or body weight control, as well as genes obtained by said method, polypeptides encoded by said genes, or novel polypeptides obtained from the information on polypeptides encoded by said genes as a means for treating, controlling or diagnosing diseases associated with eating disorders and/or body weight control. Also the present invention relates to substances that inhibit the effects of said genes or said polypeptides as a means for treating, controlling or diagnosing diseases associated with appetite control and/or body weight control. By using thiazolidine diones having a PPAR &#x3b3; agonist activity, genes and polypeptides involved in appetite regulation and/or body weight reduction can be obtained. NESFATIN or the like obtained by said method can be used as a means for treating, controlling or diagnosing diseases associated with eating disorders and/or body weight control.
