Endothelial PDGF-CC regulates angiogenesis-dependent thermogenesis in beige fat.

abstract：:The phase diagram of BaPb(1-x)Bi(x)O3 exhibits a superconducting dome in the proximity of a charge density wave phase. For the superconducting compositions, the material coexists as two structural polymorphs. Here we show, via high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, that the structural dimorphism is accommod...
