MoS(2)@CMK-3 nanocomposite consisting of confined nanosized MoS(2) in CMK-3 carbon matrix exhibits much improved cycling performance and rate capability due to the enlarged interlayer distance and favorable conductivity.

Recently, a human megakaryoblastic cell line, CMK, was established from the peripheral blood of a megakaryoblastic leukemia patient with Down syndrome. Using this cell line, we studied the proliferation and differentiation of megakaryocytic cells in the presence of highly purified human hematopoietic factors and phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA). In a methylcellulose culture system, interle...

As a group of attractive photoelectromagnetic and catalytic functional materials, metal oxychlorides have been attracting attention for electrochemical energy storage in rechargeable chloride ion battery (CIB) systems recently. Their application, however, is limited by the complicated synthesis and/or poor cycling stability. Herein, a facile strategy using vacuum impregnation and subsequent the...

Ordered Mesoporous Carbon (OMC) represents an interesting material for electric double layer capacitors which has the high surface area, easily accessed ordered pore channels and lower production cost. In this work, CMK-3 as promising OMC has been fabricated using the ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 as a template. The structure and morphology of CMK-3 are characterized by X-ray diffraction...

Ordered mesoporous carbons with various structures, designated as CMK-1~5, have been synthesized by carbonization of sucrose, furfuryl alcohol or other suitable carbon sources inside silica or aluminosilicate mesopores that are interconnected into three-dimensional networks such as in MCM-48 (cubic Ia3d), SBA-1 (cubic Pm3n) and SBA-15 (hexagonal p6mm). The mesoporous carbon molecular sieves, ob...

Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a potent stimulator of megakaryocyte proliferation, and autocrine production of IL-3 by megakaryocytic leukemia cell lines and bone marrow-derived megakaryocytes has recently been demonstrated. To characterize the transcriptional regulation of IL-3 in megakaryocytes, we transiently transfected IL-3 promoter CAT constructs that contain variable amounts of 5' flanking sequ...
