alterations in expression of the TGFb
receptors I and II (TbRI and TbRII) are
also observed during pancreatic cancer
progression. These observations are
consistent with an integral role of the
TGFb pathway components in pancreas
biology and disease progression.
However, the molecular details and the
target cell population of TGFb signals
during pancreas development and
disease are not known.
SMAD proteins are downstream
mediators of signals from TGFb 1,2,3
and activin, and SMAD proteins have
been implicated as important factors in
cellular proliferation, differentiation
and migration. This invention identifies
another important regulatory role for the
TGFb-signaling pathway in insulin
production. The inventors have shown
that low levels of TGFb can suppress
insulin production through the actions
of the SMAD signaling proteins. Small
molecule regulators of SMADdependent signaling may lead to better
insulin production and allow better
glucose regulation. Thus, controlled
administration of TGFb signaling
regulators may be useful in the
treatment of diabetes, hyperglycemia
and related complications.
In addition to licensing, the
technology is available for further
development through collaborative
research opportunities with the
inventors.

Methods for Their Use

Pre-eclampsia is associated with
increased blood levels of
marinobufagenin (MBG), a steroid that
increases blood pressure by inhibiting a
membrane enzyme, Na/K ATPase, in the
vascular wall. Pre-eclampsia
complicates up to 10% of pregnancies
in the U.S. and is a significant factor in
causing maternal and fetal mortality and
morbidity worldwide.
The present invention relates to
compositions and methods for detecting
the presence of MBG in a biological
sample. It also relates to methods for the
use of monoclonal antibodies or antigen
binding fragments as prophylactic,
therapeutic, and diagnostic agents for
the detection, inhibition and treatment
of hypertension.
In addition to licensing, the
technology is available for further
development through collaborative
research opportunities with the
inventors.

Information Collection Renewal To Be
Sent to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for Approval Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act; OMB
Control Number 1018–0119; Policy for
Evaluating Conservation Efforts When
Making Listing Decisions
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice; request for comments.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: We (Fish and Wildlife
Service, Service) plan to send OMB a
request to renew approval for
information collections associated with
our Policy for Evaluation of
Conservation Efforts When Making
Listing Decisions (PECE). We use the
information that we collect as part of the
basis for identifying conservation efforts
that can contribute to a decision to not
list a species under the Endangered
Species Act (ESA) or to list a species as
threatened rather than endangered.
DATES: You must submit comments on
or before October 14, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments on
this information collection to Hope
Grey, Information Collection Clearance
Officer, Fish and Wildlife Service, MS
222–ARLSQ, 4401 North Fairfax Drive
Arlington, Virginia 22203 (mail);
hope_grey@fws.gov (e-mail); or (703)
358–2269 (fax).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
request a copy of the information
collection requirements or explanatory
material, contact Hope Grey,
Information Collection Clearance
Officer, at the above addresses or by
telephone at (703) 358–2482. For
information related to the Policy for
Evaluation of Conservation Efforts
When Making Listing Decisions, please
visit our Web site at https://
www.fws.gov/endangered/listing/pecefinal.pdf.
The OMB
regulations at 5 CFR 1320, which
implement provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), require that interested members
of the public and affected agencies have
an opportunity to comment on
information collection and
recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR
1320.8(d)). We will ask OMB to renew
approval of the collection of information
for certain types of conservation
agreements, conservation plans, and
similar documents in relation to PECE
(68 FR 15100, March 28, 2003). The
current OMB control number for this
