Identification of quiescent FOXC2+ spermatogonial stem cells in adult mammals
In adult mammals, spermatogenesis embodies the complex developmental process from spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) to spermatozoa. At the top of this developmental hierarchy lie a series of SSC subpopulations.

Dynamics of an inchworm nano-walker [PDF]
An inchworm processive mechanism is proposed to explain the motion of dimeric molecular motors such as kinesin. We present here preliminary results for this mechanism focusing on observables like mean velocity, coupling ratio and efficiency versus ATP ...

Structural basis of complement membrane attack complex formation [PDF]
In response to complement activation, the membrane attack complex (MAC) assembles from fluid-phase proteins to form pores in lipid bilayers. MAC directly lyses pathogens by a ‘multi-hit’ mechanism; however, sublytic MAC pores on host cells activate ...

The ring-opening polymerization of D,L-lactide in the melt initiated with tetraphenyltin [PDF]
Melt polymerization conditions for D,L-lactide initiated with tetraphenyltin were studied with regard to polymer molecular weight and weight distributions.

Molecular motors: design, mechanism and control
Biological functions in each animal cell depend on coordinated operations of a wide variety of molecular motors. Some of the these motors transport cargo to their respective destinations whereas some others are mobile workshops which synthesize ...

Dehydration mechanism of a small molecular solid: 5-nitrouracil hydrate [PDF]
Previous studies of the dehydration of 5-nitrouracil (5NU) have resulted in it being classified as a ‘‘channel hydrate’’ in which dehydration proceeds principally by the exit of the water molecules along channels in the structure.

Low-temperature deposition manufacturing technology: a novel 3D printing method for bone scaffolds
The application of three-dimensional printing technology in the medical field has great potential for bone defect repair, especially personalized and biological repair. As a green manufacturing process that does not involve liquefication through heating,
