Reprogramming mature terminally differentiated adipocytes to induced pluripotent stem cells
Mature adipocytes are terminally differentiated somatic cells. Here, we report the successful generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from mouse mature adipocytes by forced expression of six transc...

Exotic origin of the Chinese continental shelf: new insights into the tectonic evolution of the western Pacific and eastern China since the Mesozoic
The effect of paleo-Pacific subduction on the geological evolution of the western Pacific and continental China is likely complex. Nevertheless, our analysis of the distribution of Mesozoic granitoids in the e...

Enhanced electrochemical stimuli multilayers based on a ferrocene-containing polymer
Based on the noncovalent functionalization of ferrocene-grafted polyethylenimine (PEI-Fc) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), CNT bundles are exfoliated by PEI-Fc solution and thus form stable compounds PEI-Fc@CNTs, ...

The precipitation “threshold value” on C4/C3 abundance of the Loess Plateau, China
In this paper, we report organic carbon isotopic characterizations from two loess sequences (JY and GL), spanning the last 20 ka, from the northwest Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP). The results indicate that the v...

Open AccessFenxiang biota: a new Early Ordovician shallow-water fauna with soft-part preservation from China
Our perception of biodiversity in the geological past is incomplete and biased because most organisms did not have mineralized skeletons and therefore had little chance of fossilization. This especially refer...

Genomic structure and evolution of beta-defensin genes in the golden pheasant and hwamei
Defensins play a vital role in the early stage of infection before adaptive immune responses are generated. Thus far, only limited detailed genomic data for avian defensin genes have been described. Here, usin...

The role of volatiles and coal structural variation in coal methane adsorption
We investigated the role of volatiles in the porous structure of coal samples and the corresponding structural deformations that affect the coals’ methane adsorption capacity. For this study, the volatiles in ...
