Space-time codes with full antenna, diversity using weighted nonbinary repeat-accumulate codes
Like turbo codes, repeat-accumulate codes have remarkably good performance when r greater than or equal to 3, where r is the number of repetition times. In this letter, we present space-time codes with full antenna diversity using "weighted" nonbinary repeat-accumulate codes. Compared with the space-time turbo codes in Liu et al. and So et al., the main advantage of this new scheme is to construct space-time codes with full diversity for any m less than or equal to r and any length of frame without searching for interleavers, where m is the number of transmit antennas. These space-time codes have rate m/r and so, have full rate when m = r. Furthermore, they have an efficient decoding based on the message passing algorithm.X113sciescopu

KC-180‑2 Exerts Anti-SCLC Effects via Dual Inhibition of Tubulin Polymerization and Src Signaling
In this study, a series of N-benzyl-2-(5-phenylpyridin-2-yl)
acetamide-based derivatives were successfully designed and synthesized
as anti-cancer agents. KC-180-2 was screened as a potentially leading
compound with dual mechanisms of action: Src signaling and tubulin
polymerization inhibition. It efficiently suppressed the proliferation
of five cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231, H446, SKOV-3, HepG2, and HT29),
with IC50 values ranging from 5 to 188 nM, especially small-cell
lung cancer (SCLC) cells (IC50, 5 nM). Correspondingly,
it exerted a significant therapeutic effect on the H446 small-cell
lung cancer xenograft model, significantly reducing the volume of
tumors without obvious toxicity. Mechanistically, this compound significantly
inhibited the polymerization of purified tubulin in vitro, inducing
G2/M cell cycle arrest and binding to the kinase catalytic domain
of the Src protein, which reduced the phosphorylation of Src. Thus,
KC-180-2 is a potential lead compound for the further development
of a new anti-tumor drug against SCLC
