We propose a multicarrier code-division multiple-access (MC-CDMA) system employing an antenna array at the base station, and analyze performance of MC-CDMA in fading channel. An optimal beamformer not requiring explicit direction arrival estimation or training signals is derived for reverse link, shown to reduce interferences from other users significantly, thus increasing system's user capacity. Also, it that approach can achieve better than direct-sequence CDMA when both approaches employ...
The fetal liver kinase 1 (FLK-1)(+) hemangioblast can generate hematopoietic, endothelial, and smooth muscle cells (SMCs). ER71/ETV2, GATA2, SCL form a core transcriptional network in development. Transient coexpression of these three factors during mesoderm formation stage mouse embryonic stem (ESCs) robustly enhanced generation by activating bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) FLK-1 signaling while inhibiting phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, WNT signaling, cardiac output. Moreover, etsrp,...
We experienced a case of primary renal synovial sarcoma in 32 year-old woman. On admission, she complained intermittent abdominal pain. radiologic examination, 12×10 cm-sized soft tissue mass was detected on the left kidney. The tumor had histologic and immunophenotypic features that were consistent with spindle cell type monophasic sarcoma. Four months after complete resection tumor, unilateral hematogenous metastasis developed lung. She treated combined chemotherapy doxorubicin ifosfamide...
