Nature China highlights the best research coming out of Mainland China and Hong Kong, providing scientists from around the world with a convenient portal into publications drawn from across all scientific disciplines.
Cell-surface analysis: Competing carbohydrates
Competitive recognition between cell-surface carbohydrates and a biomimetic self-assembled monolayer provides convenient in situ analysis of cell-surface patterns
Cancer therapy: Effects of radiation
Mitochondria have a key role in the induction of bystander effects
Strokes: An alternative to aspirin
Cilostazol might be a safer alternative to aspirin for stroke patients
High-pressure synthesis: Pressing perovskite
Materials produced in high-pressure laboratories can reveal how magnetic behaviour arises in minerals
Neuron survival: A matter of life and death
Researchers in Hong Kong have uncovered a mechanism whereby cyclin-dependent kinase 5 regulates neuronal survival
Particle physics: Include the invisible
Experiments at the Beijing Spectrometer may have produced invisible particles that lie outside the Standard Model
