Abstract: Operation in unlicensed spectrum requires Clear Channel Assessment (CCA), where a transmitter must monitor the channel before transmitting, to ensure it is free. An exception is a brief gap that allows for Rx/Tx turn-around, so that an ACK can be transmitted following reception, without performing a new CCA. NR introduces a 2-step Random Access (RA) procedure, where MsgA includes both a PRACH and a PUSCH transmission. To minimize CCA delays in unlicensed spectrum, only those RACH opportunities (ROs) and PUSCH opportunities (POs) that result in a very small delay between the PRACH and PUSCH transmissions of MsgA should be employed. RO configurations are defined for LTE 4-step RA. Embodiments provides methods for selecting which of these be may be shared for 2-step RA, for selecting which should be used in case of collisions, for selecting ROs and POs when the configurations are not shared, and for communicating RO configurations to UEs.

Abstract: A method for arterial endothelial-enhanced functional T cell generation is provided. In the method, arterial endothelial cells enhance functional T cell generation by promoting the generation of hematopoietic progenitor cells with T-lineage bias. The first stage of T cell differentiation from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) is optimized, and it is found that hPSC-derived autologous arterial endothelial cells increase the T cell potential of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Moreover, the T cells generated by arterial endothelial cell priming share similar function to that of human peripheral blood T cells. hPSC-derived CD19-CAR-T cells have been verified to have tumor-killing effects both in vivo and in vitro. The established hPSC-T differentiation system would provide a valuable resource for chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy.
