Abstract: Methods of regenerating tissue using progenitor cells in combination with primary cells from a target tissue are disclosed. The progenitor cells catalyze proliferation and tissue production by primary cells allowing the use of fewer primary cells from a target tissue for effective tissue regeneration. Cell-based therapies combining progenitor cells and primary cells can be used for repair and regeneration of damaged tissue and organs for treating bodily injuries and degenerative diseases. In particular, adipose-derived stem cells and chondrocytes, co-encapsulated in a mixed culture in a polyethylene glycol-based hydrogel comprising an extracellular matrix molecule such as chondroitin sulfate methacrylate, hyaluronic acid methacrylate, or heparan sulfate methacrylate, effectively produce cartilage that can be used for treatment of traumatic injuries or diseases involving cartilage degeneration.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for adapting transmitter equalization coefficients based on receiver gain adaptation. Equalization coefficients of a transmitter that communicates over a channel with a receiver are adapted by determining if a gain value for an amplifier in the receiver is within a limit of the amplifier; and preventing one or more adjustments to the transmitter equalization coefficients if the gain value does not satisfy the upper or lower limit of the amplifier. The gain adjustments comprise, for example, up and down requests for the transmitter equalization coefficients. One or more enable flags can optionally be set based on whether the gain value is within the limit of the amplifier.
