1. IntroductionThe stud shear connector is an important part of the composite structure and is widely used in steel–concrete composite girders, steel–UHPC composite bridge decks, and other composite structures. The high strength and excellent durability of UHPC can allow composite structures to further reduce section sizes and deadweight, increasing the load-carrying capacity, so it has been used in composite structures increasingly.

AbstractPost-transcriptional regulation mediated by RNA binding proteins is crucial for male germline development. Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1), an RNA binding protein, is specifically expressed in human and mouse male gonads and is involved in manifold biological processes and tumorigenesis. However, the function of IGF2BP1 in mammalian spermatogenesis remains poorly understood. Herein, we generated an Igf2bp1 conditional knockout mouse model using Nanos3-Cre.
