Making Maoshan Great Again: Religious Rhetoric and Popular Mobilisation from Late Qing to Republican China (1864–1937) by Qijun Zheng

“…Through a detailed analysis of primary sources, including editions of the <i>Maoshan Gazetteer</i>, liturgical manuals such as the scripture (<i>jing</i> 經), litany (<i>chan</i> 懺), and performative texts such as the precious scroll (<i>baojuan</i> 寶卷) of the Three Mao Lords, this study identifies six key rhetoric strategies employed by Maoshan Daoists, using the acronym IMPACT: (1) Incorporation: Appending miracle tales (<i>lingyan ji</i> 靈驗記) and divine medicine (<i>xianfang</i> 仙方) to address immediate and practical needs of contemporary society; (2) Memory: Preserving doctrinal continuity while invoking cultural nostalgia to reinforce connections to traditional values and heritage; (3) Performance: Collaborating with professional storytellers to disseminate vernacularized texts through oral performances, thereby reaching broader audiences including the illiterate. (4) Abridgment: Condensing lengthy texts into concise and accessible formats; (5) Canonization: Elevating the divine status of deities through spirit-writing, thereby enhancing their religious authority; (6) Translation: Rendering classical texts into vernacular language for broader accessibility. …”

Distinct dynamic regulation of pectoralis muscle metabolomics by insulin and the promotion of glucose-lipid metabolism with extended duration by Xiangli Zhang, Pengfei Du, Ziyang Wang, Yao Zhu, Xuemeng Si, Wen Chen, Yanqun Huang

“…Early insulin inhibited glycolysis, evidenced by the reduction in phosphoenolpyruvate levels and hexokinase 2 (HK2) expression; however, insulin promoted glucose uptake through the activation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) and enhanced glycolysis, accompanied by elevated fatty acid metabolism at the later phase.In conclusion, insulin dynamically regulates the metabolomics of the pectoralis muscle over time. …”
