Evolution of Pore Structure and Fractal Characteristics in Transitional Shale Reservoirs: Case Study of Shanxi Formation, Eastern Ordos Basin by Yifan Gu, Xu Wu, Yuqiang Jiang, Quanzhong Guan, Dazhong Dong, Hongzhan Zhuang

“…Correlation coefficients and principal component analysis (PCA) were employed to explore the factors influencing the fractal dimension and its evolutionary patterns during reservoir development. The results indicate that (1) with increasing thermal maturity, the quartz content gradually increases while the contents of clay minerals, carbonate minerals, pyrite, and feldspar decrease. (2) The evolution of porosity follows five stages: a slow decrease (0.78 < Ro < 1.0%), a rapid increase (1.0% < Ro < 2.0%), a relatively stable phase (2.0% < Ro < 2.7%), a rapid rise (2.7% < Ro < 3.2%), and a slow decline (Ro > 3.2%). …”

Single-cell analysis of dup15q syndrome reveals developmental and postnatal molecular changes in autism by Yonatan Perez, Dmitry Velmeshev, Li Wang, Matthew L. White, Clara Siebert, Jennifer Baltazar, Guolong Zuo, Juan Andrés Moriano, Songcang Chen, David M. Steffen, Natalia Garcia Dutton, Shaohui Wang, Brittney Wick, Maximilian Haeussler, Stormy Chamberlain, Arturo Alvarez-Buylla, Arnold Kriegstein

“…Using single-cell and single-nucleus RNA sequencing of cortical organoids from dup15q patient-derived iPSCs and post-mortem brain samples, we identify increased glycolysis, disrupted layer-specific marker expression, and aberrant morphology in deep-layer neurons during fetal-stage organoid development. In adolescent-adult postmortem brains, upper-layer neurons exhibit heightened transcriptional burden related to synaptic signaling, a pattern shared with idiopathic autism. …”
