The overexpression of certain marker genes including Wnt5a has been found useful in the identification of more aggressive forms of malignant melanoma. Therefore, the overexpression of these genes in tumor samples of malignant melanoma may be useful in the diagnosis, profiling, and treatment of patients suffering from this disease. Inhibitors of Wnt5a activity may be useful in the treatment of aggressive forms of malignant melanoma. Inhibition of Wnt5a activity may be effected by any method including anti-sense therapy, gene therapy, and pharmaceutical intervention.

An intrusion detection and response system having an event data collector receiving a plurality of data sets from a respective and corresponding plurality of security devices. An event analysis engine receives the plurality of data sets and analyzes the data sets with reference to one of a plurality of pre-defined traffic classes. The event analysis engine produces a corresponding plurality of analyzed data sets. An event correlation engine receives the analyzed data sets and correlates the events across the plurality of security devices for identifying normal and abnormal data traffic patterns.

Designs for cylindrical-wave controlling, generating and guiding devices are disclosed, which include multi-cylindrical-layer reflector and anti-reflection for unguided cylindrical waves, and concentric-circle-grating waveguide reflector, directional coupler and distributed feedback structures for guided cylindrical waves. A multi-cylindrical-layer structure takes the form of cylindrical layers wrapped concentrically around a central rod. A grating waveguide structure takes the form of a slab waveguide in which one of the slabs has circular ridge-groove grating. Layer and ridge-groove spacings are critical to the functionality of these structures. Design rules are outlined. These structures are important components for cylindrical wave controls. Designs of narrow-linewidth and high-power surface-emitting semiconductor lasers using the grating reflectors and 90-degree couplers are also disclosed.
