Abstract: A packet sorting and reassembly circuit module, including a header parser, an information processing circuit, at least one state tracking and reassembly circuit, and an output arbiter, is provided. The header parser is configured to analyze multiple first packet segments to obtain header information corresponding to a first network packet, wherein the first network packet is transmitted based on a transmission control protocol (TCP) communication protocol. The information processing circuit is configured to transmit the first packet segments and sideband information corresponding to the first packet segments to a first state tracking and reassembly circuit among the at least one state tracking and reassembly circuit according to the header information. The first state tracking and reassembly circuit is configured to reassemble and sort the first packet segments according to the sideband information. The output arbiter is configured to output the first packet segments according to a sorting result.

Abstract: CD93 functional domains for use in treating osteoporosis. A method of alleviating, reducing, suppressing, and/or treating an osteoclast-related bone disease is disclosed. The method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of an isolated recombinant protein comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 80% identical to human Cluster of Differentiation 93 protein domain 1 to a subject in need thereof, the recombinant protein lacking amino acid residues 1 to 21, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the human CD93 (SEQ ID NO: 3) and having a total length of no more than 559 amino acid residues. In one embodiment, the osteoclast-related bone disease is at least one selected from the group consisting of osteoporosis, postmenopausal osteoporosis, osteopenia, bone loss, inflammatory bone loss, and any combination thereof. In another embodiment, the recombinant protein comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2.

Abstract: A method for pharmacological prevention and suppression of aortic aneurysm development is disclosed. The method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of recombinant thrombomodulin to a subject in need thereof. The recombinant thrombomodulin prevents formation and/or retards progression of an aortic aneurysm.
