A nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheet composited platinum-cobalt single atom alloy catalyst for effective hydrogen evolution reaction.

An electrocatalyst with ultra-small PtCo single atom alloy species evenly dispersed on nitrogen-doped ultra-thin carbon nanosheets (PtCo SAA/NC) was designed. The introduction of single-atom Pt not only maximizes the atomic utilization efficiency of Pt species, but also synergistically enhances the charge transfer characteristics of Co cluster surfaces, thereby increasing the migration and evolution rate of hydrogen ions. The PtCo SAA/NC catalyst exhibits a Tafel slope of 42 mV dec and a low overpotential of 45 mV at 10 mA cm in 0.

Identification of cardiomyopathy-related core genes through human metabolic networks and expression data.

Background: Cardiomyopathy is a complex type of myocardial disease, and its incidence has increased significantly in recent years. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) are two common and indistinguishable types of cardiomyopathy.

Results: Here, a systematic multi-omics integration approach was proposed to identify cardiomyopathy-related core genes that could distinguish normal, DCM and ICM samples using cardiomyopathy expression profile data based on a human metabolic network.

Identification of genes associated with cancer prognosis in glioma: data analyses of Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

Glioma is one particular type of brain malignancy which is highly complex and usually has a poor prognosis. Despite the limited diagnostic level of glioma, the survival time of affected patients broadly varies. Here, we conducted a detailed analysis, regarding the differences in patient survival time, to discover potential survival-related genes in glioma as well as their putative regulatory mechanisms.
