Open AccessStrong correlation induced charge localization in antiferromagnets
The fate of a hole injected in an antiferromagnet is an outstanding issue of strongly correlated physics. It provides important insights into doped Mott insulators closely related to high-temperature supercond...

Open AccessCarbon nanofiber aerogels for emergent cleanup of oil spillage and chemical leakage under harsh conditions
To address oil spillage and chemical leakage accidents, the development of efficient sorbent materials is of global importance for environment and water source protection. Here we report on a new type of carbo...

Open AccessExposure to 1800 MHz radiofrequency radiation impairs neurite outgrowth of embryonic neural stem cells
A radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) of 1800 MHz is widely used in mobile communications. However, the effects of RF-EMFs on cell biology are unclear. Embryonic neural stem cells (eNSCs) play a crit...

Open AccessNature of strong hole pairing in doped Mott antiferromagnets
Cooper pairing instability in a Fermi liquid is well understood by the BCS theory, but pairing mechanism for doped Mott insulators still remains elusive. Previously it has been shown by density matrix renormal...

Open AccessEffects of temperature and salinity on metabolic rate of the Asiatic clam Corbicula fluminea (Müller, 1774)
The effects of temperature and salinity on the metabolism of the Asiatic clam Corbicula fluminea (mollusca, Lamellibranchia) were studied experimentally. Firstly, three indexes of basal metabolism (oxygen consump...

Open AccessConventional empirical law reverses in the phase transitions of 122-type iron-based superconductors
Phase transition of solid-state materials is a fundamental research topic in condensed matter physics, materials science and geophysics. It has been well accepted and widely proven that isostructural compounds...

Open AccessTerahertz in-line digital holography of human hepatocellular carcinoma tissue
Terahertz waves provide a better contrast in imaging soft biomedical tissues than X-rays and unlike X-rays, they cause no ionisation damage, making them a good option for biomedical imaging. Terahertz absorpti...

Open AccessGene expression in the liver of female, but not male mice treated with rapamycin resembles changes observed under dietary restriction
It is well known that in mice the extension in lifespan by rapamycin is sexually dimorphic, in that it has a larger effect in females than males. In a previous study we showed that in male C57BL6 mice, rapamyc...

Open AccessBlack tea protects against hypertension-associated endothelial dysfunction through alleviation of endoplasmic reticulum stress
Hypertensive patients have been found to be associated with elevated levels of homocysteine, known as hyperhomocysteinemia. Homocysteine (Hcy) can induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in endothelial cells....

Open AccessArginine methylation of hnRNPUL1 regulates interaction with NBS1 and recruitment to sites of DNA damage
Arginine methylation is a post-translational modification required for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Cells deficient in protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) have DNA damage signaling defects, d...

Open AccessMaternal zinc deficiency during pregnancy elevates the risks of fetal growth restriction: a population-based birth cohort study
We investigated the association between maternal zinc level during pregnancy and the risks of low birth weight (LBW) and small for gestational age (SGA) infants in a large population-based birth cohort study. ...

Open AccessVitamin D3 inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced placental inflammation through reinforcing interaction between vitamin D receptor and nuclear factor kappa B p65 subunit
It is increasingly recognized that vitamin D3 (VitD3) has an anti-inflammatory activity. The present study investigated the effects of maternal VitD3 supplementation during pregnancy on LPS-induced placental i...

Open AccessNeuritin reverses deficits in murine novel object associative recognition memory caused by exposure to extremely low-frequency (50 Hz) electromagnetic fields
Animal studies have shown that electromagnetic field exposure may interfere with the activity of brain cells, thereby generating behavioral and cognitive disturbances. However, the underlying mechanisms and po...
