Biological characterization of RNA polymerase proteins from human 2009 pandemic H1N1 and low pathogenic avian H5N2 and H9N2 influenza viruses by Myaing, Myint Zu

“…In our gene reassortment study, a single reassortant bearing a human-origin PA or PB2 subunit against an avian polymerase background could overcome the host range barrier of avian polymerase in human 293T cells, indicating the PA or PB2 as a major determinant of species tropism and pathogenicity. …”

Tumor-targeted nano-assemblies for energy-blocking cocktail therapy in cancer by Chen, Manling, Liu, Yidu, Li, Yang, Liu, Xue

“…In studies with A549 tumor-bearing mice, the combination of low-dose 2-DG and metformin did not impede tumor growth, whereas 2-DG@MA-dots markedly decreased tumor volume, with the mean final tumor volume in the combination treatment group being approximately 89 times greater than that in the 2-DG@MA-dot group. …”

论李世民音乐政治观对儒家礼乐思想的继承和转化 = A study on Li Shimin music-politics: inheritance and transformation of Confucian ritual and music thought by 许惠佳 Koh, Hwee Kay

“…To a certain extent, he had inherited Yueji, Confucian ritual and Music thought - which extensively covers the social influence and educational function of music to society – while at the same time, his Music-politics thought bears much resemblance to those of Ji Kang. This article hopes to explore in detail Li Shimin’s Music-politics thought, and by using Yueji as a comparison, analyses how his inheritance and transformation of Confucian Ritual and Music thought played an important role in shaping the Tang Culture.…”

Fabrication and characterization of graphene and carbon nanotube reinforced bioceramic nanocomposites by Hu, Huanlong

“…Bioceramics play an important role in the replacement and regeneration of human tissues, but their intrinsic brittleness and low wear resistance make the monolithic bioceramics still problematic for load-bearing applications. The two dimensional (2D) graphene and one dimensional (1D) carbon nanotube (CNT), as the secondary strong and tough biocompatible nanofillers, are popular nanocarbons to reinforce bioceramics. …”

Amino-functionalised β-diketiminate ligands (N-nacnacs): Synthesis and coordination chemistry with Main Group elements by Huan, D

“…The establishment of a library of germylenes and stannylenes bearing different N-bound aromatic substituents with varying degrees of steric bulk allows for a systematic study of the steric effects of the flanking aryl groups on the overall molecular metrics of these complexes. …”

Stability improvement and control optimization of isolated two-stage AC-DC-DC converter systems by Feng, Fan

“…The analysis results offer instructive implications to fine-tune the design rules of the DAB converters. Bearing the mind that the impedance model of the DAB converter is closely related to the modulation schemes, the impacts of three typical modulation methods on the DAB impedances are analyzed and compared. …”
