Open AccessHydrocarbon generation potential and organic matter accumulation patterns in organic-rich shale during the mesoproterozoic oxygenation event: evidence from the **amaling formation shale
A significant deposition of black shales occurred during the Mesoproterozoic Oxygenation Event (MOE). In order to investigate the hydrocarbon generation potential and organic matter enrichment mechanism of the...

Regularity of inverse mean curvature flow in asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds with dimension 3
By using the nice behavior of the Hawking mass of the slices of a weak solution of inverse mean curvature flow in three-dimensional asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, we are able to show that each slice of t...

Open AccessMARK4 regulates NLRP3 positioning and inflammasome activation through a microtubule-dependent mechanism
Excessive activation of the NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is involved in many chronic inflammatory diseases, including cardiovascular and Alzheimer’s disease. Here we show that micr...

Open AccessRegulation of hepatic lipogenesis by the zinc finger protein Zbtb20
Hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) converts carbohydrates into triglycerides and is known to influence systemic lipid homoeostasis. Here, we demonstrate that the zinc finger protein Zbtb20 is required for DNL. Mic...

Selenoprotein W was Correlated with the Protective Effect of Selenium on Chicken Myocardial Cells from Oxidative Damage
Selenium (Se) mainly performs its function through Se-containing proteins. Selenoprotein W (SelW), one member of the selenoprotein family, plays important roles in the normal function of the heart. To investig...

Open AccessZBTB20 is required for anterior pituitary development and lactotrope specification
The anterior pituitary harbours five distinct hormone-producing cell types, and their cellular differentiation is a highly regulated and coordinated process. Here we show that ZBTB20 is essential for anterior ...

Volume Comparison of Conformally Compact Manifolds with Scalar Curvature R ≥ −n (n − 1)
In this paper, we use the normalized Ricci–DeTurk flow to prove a stability result for strictly stable conformally compact Einstein manifolds. As an application, we show a local volume comparison of conformall...

Open AccessKnockin of Cre Gene at Ins2 Locus Reveals No Cre Activity in Mouse Hypothalamic Neurons
The recombination efficiency and cell specificity of Cre driver lines are critical for exploring pancreatic β cell biology with the Cre/LoxP approach. Some commonly used Cre lines are based on the short Ins2 prom...

Transcription factor Ets-1 links glucotoxicity to pancreatic beta cell dysfunction through inhibiting PDX-1 expression in rodent models
‘Glucotoxicity’ is a term used to convey the negative effect of hyperglycaemia on beta cell function; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms that impair insulin secretion and gene expression are poorly d...

Normalized Ricci flows and conformally compact Einstein metrics
In this paper, we investigate the behavior of the normalized Ricci flow on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. We show that the normalized Ricci flow exists globally and converges to an Einstein metric when s...
