We present a bit rate maximising per-tone equalisation (BM-PTEQ) cost function that is based on an exact subchannel SNR as a function of per-tone equaliser in discrete multitone (DMT) systems. We then introduce the proposed BM-PTEQ criterion whose derivation for solution is shown to inherit from the methodology of the existing bit rate maximising time-domain equalisation (BM-TEQ). By solving a ...

The mammalian tachykinins mediate crosstalk within the neural-immune-hematopoietic axis. Hematopoiesis occurs in the adult bone marrow (BM) and it is described as the method by which the immune system is replenished by a finite number of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). These cells are found in the BM close to the endosteum where the oxygen level is the lowest. The BM is also resident to mesench...

1. Let M be a complex manifold with a smooth boundary which will be denoted bM , dim C M = n. Let us denote M = M ∪ bM and assume for simplicity that M ⊂ ˜ M where˜M is a complex neighbourhood of M , dim C ˜ M = n, so that every point z ∈ bM is an interior point of˜M. Let us take a C ∞-function ρ : ˜ M → R such that M = z | ρ(z) < 0 , bM = z | ρ(z) = 0 ; dρ(z) = 0 for all z ∈ bM. (0.1) For any ...

This study aimed to understand the role of IL-10 secreted from bone marrow (BM) in a mouse model of pancreatic fibrosis. The severity of cerulein-induced inflammation, fibrosis, and the frequency of BM-derived myofibroblasts were evaluated in the pancreas of mice receiving either a wild-type (WT) BM or an IL-10 knockout (KO) BM transplantation. The area of collagen deposition increased signific...

OBJECTIVE Interleukin (IL)-7 is mainly produced in bone marrow (BM) that forms the niche for B cells. We previously demonstrated that BM also retains pathogenic memory CD4 T cells in murine models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unknown whether BM-derived IL-7 is sufficient for the development of IBD and which cells form the niche for colitogenic memory CD4 T cells in B...

The contribution of IFN-gamma from bone marrow (BM) and non-BM-derived cells to glomerular and cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) was studied in mice. Chimeric IFN-gamma mice (IFN-gamma(+/+) BM chimera), in which IFN-gamma production was restricted to BM-derived cells, were created by transplanting normal C57BL/6 (wild-type (WT)) BM into irradiated IFN-gamma-deficient mice. BM IFN-ga...

AIM To evaluate the association between the presence of CD8 and CD45RO T lymphocytes in bone marrow (BM), disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), tumor hypoxia and their impact on disease outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS 91 naïve gastric cancer (GC) patients were enrolled into the study. DTCs, CD8- and CD45RO-positive T lymphocytes in BM were detected using immunocytochemistry. All patients were thorou...

The purpose of this investigation was to reveal the physiological bone remodeling mechanism by means of cellular interaction phenomenon between osteoblasts (OB) and bone marrow cells (BM) in vitro. When OB (1•~105 cells) originated from newborn mouse calvariaand BM (1•~106 cells) obtained from 4 weeks old mouse long bones were co-cultivated by using millicell as a separator in a CO2 incubator f...
