Abstract: Methods and systems for techniques for beam management in wireless networks are disclosed. In one example aspect, the method includes receiving, by a wireless device, a configuration from a network device, and initiating, by the wireless device, a process to recover a link to a network based on information elements within the configuration associated with different criteria.

Abstract: A tissue engineering material for nerve injury repair, a preparation method therefor and an application thereof. The tissue engineering material for nerve injury repair is an N-cadherin crosslinked linear ordered collagen scaffold. By crosslinking N-cadherin with a linear ordered collagen scaffold, the prepared tissue engineering material can efficiently induce migration of neural stem cells towards an injury region so that the neural stem cells are enriched in the injury region, and can effectively inhibit deposition of inhibitory factors such as chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, promote differentiation of the neural stem cells into neurons, and then promote recovery of electrophysiological and motion functions. The N-cadherin crosslinked linear ordered collagen scaffold also has a stable ordered topological structure and excellent mechanical properties, and can be used to repair nerve injuries such as spinal cord injury.

Abstract: Provided are activated collagen scaffold materials as well as their special fused active restoration factors useful for promoting tissue repair, such as bone damage repair or nerve injury repair. The special fused active restoration factors are fusion proteins comprising a collagen-binding domain (CBD) at N-/C-terminus of cytokines, wherein the collagen-binding domain is a polypeptide consisting of 7-27 amino acid residues with a conservative sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:4 at N-terminus.

Abstract: A method of performing and preserving a bioremodelable, biopolymer scaffold material by subjecting animal tissue to chemical and mechanical processing. In addition to skin tissue, another source of EBM is a blood vessel. EBM may be used for hernia repair, colon, rectal, vaginal and or urethral prolapse treatment; pelvic floor reconstruction; muscle flap reinforcement; lung tissue support; rotator cuff repair or replacement; periosteum replacement; dura repair; pericardial membrane repair; soft tissue augmentation; intervertebral disk repair; and periodontal repair. EBM may also be used as a urethral sling, laminectomy barrier or spinal fusion device.

Abstract: A method of forming and preserving a bioremodelable, biopolymer scaffold material by subjecting animal tissue, particularly fetal or neo-natal tissue, to chemical and mechanical processing. The process includes, but is not limited to, harvesting the tissue, optionally extracting growth and differentiation factors from the tissue, inactivating infective agents of the tissue, mechanically expressing undesirable components from the tissue, delipidizing the tissue, washing the tissue, optionally drying the tissue, optionally cross-linking the tissue not necessarily in the order described. The resulting product, EBM, is characterized by its microbial, fungal, viral and prion inactivated state. EBM is strong, bioremodelable, drapable and does not undergo calcification. EBM supplants previous inventions because of its unique method of preparation and broad applicability in tissue reengineering.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for repairing tissue. Certain embodiments of the invention involve transdifferentiation of cells in a manner not heretofore provided for. One embodiment of the invention features methods for producing stem cells. These methods can involve exposing cells (e.g., human fibroblasts) to a processed or activated egg extract (e.g., activated egg extract); and culturing the cells for a period of time to become stem cells. A cell culture can be performed in two or three dimensions, so that organ tissue or whole organs may be produced, e.g., for transplantation. Another embodiment of the invention features methods for promoting wound healing by using signaling complexes.

Abstract: The applications of this invention, the use of stem cells derived from the dermis, include but are not limited to cell differentiation, histiogenesis, organogenesis, cell therapy, tissue engineering, and tissue and organ regeneration.
