A fault diagnostic device of a vehicle includes a starting circuit which causes a charger mounted on the vehicle to output a charging start signal and thereby activate a control unit for controlling charging of a battery mounted on the vehicle when a charging gun is connected to the charger. The control unit causes the charger to output the charging start signal when the charger is activated in response to turning on of an ignition switch, and has a fault determination function whereby, if the control unit is not input with the charging start signal, it is judged that a disconnection or power-supply short circuit has occurred in a charging start signal circuit of the starting circuit.

The purpose of the present invention is to develop a method for amplifying in vitro to a large amount of a homogenous insoluble aggregate that is equivalent to an insoluble aggregate formed in the brain of a patient. A method of producing an insoluble aggregate including TDP-43 protein and fragments thereof according to the present invention includes the steps of: (1) introducing an insoluble fraction originated from the brain of a neurodegenerative disease patient into a cell culture in which the intact TDP-43 protein can be expressed in a constitutive manner; (2) culturing the cultured cell into which the insoluble fraction has been introduced; and (3) separating an insoluble fraction from the cultured cell. Optionally, the method may additionally include a step of amplifying the insoluble aggregate of the neurodegenerative-disease-related protein in the cultured cell.

An abnormality diagnostic apparatus for a vehicle, which can accurately determine whether or not there is an abnormality in a voltage detection unit, while curtailing a cost increase, is provided. Output voltages Va, Vb, Vc outputted from voltage detection units are acquired, and differences |Va&#x2212;Vb|, |Vb&#x2212;Vc|, |Vc&#x2212;Va| between the acquired output values are calculated. If any of the calculation results is greater than a determination threshold value, it is determined that there is an abnormality in any of the voltage detection units.

Abnormality diagnostic apparatus for vehicle

Disclosed is a transformed cell (a cell model) which can form a cytoplasmic inclusion body derived from TAR DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43) that is found in the brain of a patient suffering from a neurodegenerative disease such as FTLD and ALS. The transformed cell is characterized by having, introduced therein, a promoter capable of functioning in a host cell and a mutant TDP-43 gene.

TDP-43-storing cell model

The present invention provides an antibody that specifically binds to an abnormal TDP-43 protein aggregate, an agent comprising the antibody for detecting a TDP-43 proteinopathy lesion, and a method for detecting or diagnosing a TDP-43 proteinopathy lesion by using the antibody.

In a heat sink, a portable electronic apparatus using this heat sink, and a method for forming this heat sink, an abutting member is arranged on an inside surface of a casing and the casing and the abutting member are covered with a heat spreader sheet. The heat spreader sheet is made to abut against an exothermic device by means of an abutting member. The heat generated in the exothermic device is transmitted to the inside wall surface of the casing via the heat spreader sheet, with a portion being transmitted via the abutting member. When an anisotropic thermal conductivity material is used for the abutting member, it is possible to realize characteristics such as a low peak casing temperature under the exothermic device.

A method of manufacturing a magnetic head where the width of upper and/or lower cores projecting from respective core bodies and extending parallel with each other via a gap is changed in advance substantially stepwise toward the free end. Then, the upper and lower cores are polished from the free ends to a position of a stepwise change in the width, thus obtaining a desired throat height.
