Glial cells are the most abundant cell type in the central nervous system (CNS) and play essential roles in maintaining brain homeostasis, forming myelin, and providing support and protection for neurons, etc. Over the past...
Previous studies of highly branched mutants in pea (rms1-rms5), Arabidopsis thaliana (max1-max4), petunia (dad1-dad3), and rice (d3, d10, htd1/d17, d14, d27) identified strigolactones or their derivates (SLs), as shoot branching...
For forty years, there has been a widely held belief that over 2,000 years ago the Chinese Qin developed an advanced chromate conversion coating technology (CCC) to prevent metal corrosion. This belief was based on the detection...
Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China, is increasingly experiencing Cu crises. Combining field data, laboratory experiments, and long-term simulations, we retrieved 30 + year evolution of Cu in surface sediments...
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes infectious mononucleosis and is associated with multiple human malignancies. EBV drives B-cell proliferation, which contributes to the pathogenesis of multiple lymphomas. Yet, knowledge of how EBV...
One challenge to the success of online knowledge-sharing communities relates to the participants' longtime participation. Literature has explored the determinants of initial participation rather than longtime participation...
The application of the metaverse provides a new perspective for educational innovation and talent training in the new century. By creating multi-channel perceptions such as sight, hearing, and touch through the VR/AR/MR...
The eukaryotic nucleus mediates the genomic functions of information storage and gene expression, but must be completely rebuilt after every open mitosis as well as during fertilization. Nuclear abnormalities are observed in...
Variations in neuronal connectivity occur widely in nervous systems from invertebrates to mammals. Yet, it is unclear how neuronal variability originates, to what extent and at what time scales it exists, and what functional...
Obesity has become one of the major public health issues during the last three decades. A considerable number of determinants have been proposed for body mass index (BMI) by a large range of studies from multiple disciplines. In...
Recently, with the rapid development of blockchain technology, the information interaction and value transfer problems between different blockchains have become the focus of research. The cross-chain technology is to solve the...
This paper outlines the IoT Databox model as a means of making the Internet of Things (IoT) accountable to individuals. Accountability is a key to building consumer trust and is mandated by the European Union's general data...
There have been large foodborne outbreaks related to Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) around the world. Among its virulence proteins, the EspF encoded by locus of enterocyte effacement is one of the most known...
