  • Publication number: 20190111153
    Abstract: Compositions and methods that rapidly and selectively modify hematopoietic stem cells (or cells derived therefrom) to achieve therapeutic objectives by providing for transient expression of nucleic acids are described. The transient expression leads to permanent therapeutic changes in the modified cells, referred to herein as “hit and run” effects.

  • Patent number: 10212616
    Abstract: Provided is an RF resource allocation device that distributes to a mobile terminal a communication setting notification including a communication setting to be used in a radio communication. The device includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a measurement result or an estimation result of communication conditions at a plurality of positions; a generation unit configured to determine for each region the communication setting to be used by the mobile terminal in the radio communication based on the communication conditions, and to generate the communication setting notification including the communication setting for each region; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the communication setting notification to the mobile terminal The acquisition of the communication conditions by the acquisition unit and the generation of the communication setting notification by the generation unit are executed repeatedly at predetermined time intervals.
