Groundbreaking work demonstrated that ectopic expression of four transcription factors, Oct4,
Klf4, Sox2, and c-Myc, could reprogram murine somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem …

Here we show that conventional reprogramming towards pluripotency through overexpression
of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc can be shortcut and directed towards cardiogenesis in a …

Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology, ie reprogramming somatic cells into
pluripotent cells that closely resemble embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by introduction of defined …

purpose. Behçet disease (BD) is a systemic inflammatory disease presumably caused by
an autoimmune response. The interleukin (IL)-23/IL-17 pathway has been demonstrated to …

Purpose: To address the clinical pattern and characteristics of uveitis in a tertiary center for
uveitis in China and compare the similarity and difference in the distribution of uveitis entities …

Induced pluripotent stem cell technology has attracted enormous interest for potential application
in regenerative medicine. Here, we report that a specific glycogen synthase kinase 3 (…

Sustainable agriculture is an important global issue. The use of organic fertilizers can enhance
crop yield and soil properties while restraining pests and diseases. The objective of this …

BACKGROUND: Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a systemic refractory autoimmune
disease. IL-23 has been thought to play a critical role in autoimmune disease through …

Parkinson's disease (PD) has been attributed to a combination of genetic and nongenetic
factors. We studied a set of monozygotic twins harboring the heterozygous glucocerebrosidase …

We investigate the relationship between the linewidths of broad Mg ii λ2800 and Hβ in
active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to refine them as tools to estimate black hole (BH) masses. We …
