A power distribution board includes a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), a first buck chip and a second buck chip. The first buck chip is connected to the complex programmable logic device. The first buck chip is configured to receive a first direct current (DC) voltage, lower the first DC voltage to a first voltage, and supply the first voltage to the complex programmable logic device. The second buck chip is configured to receive a second direct current voltage, lower the second direct current voltage to a second voltage, and supply the second voltage to a power module. The first direct current voltage and the second direct current voltage has a same voltage value.

A dual system server includes: a central processing unit, a first baseboard management controller, a second baseboard management controller and a complex programmable logic device. The first baseboard management controller is connected to the central processing unit through a first peripheral component interconnect express interface. The second baseboard management controller is connected to the central processing unit through a second peripheral component interconnect express interface. The complex programmable logic device is connected to the first baseboard management controller through a first inter-integrated circuit interface, and is connected to the second baseboard management controller through a second inter-integrated circuit interface.

A double-layer rack includes a PCIe card frame, a network card frame, a PCIe riser card and a network card connector assembly. The PCIe card frame is stacked on the network card frame. The network card frame has a network card accommodation space for selectively receiving one OCP network card, two OCP network cards or one data processing unit. The PCIe riser card is disposed in the PCIe accommodation space. The network card connector assembly is disposed in the network card accommodation space. The double-layer rack further includes a blocker component and a divider plate selectively and removably disposed on the network card frame, so that the network card accommodation space forms various accommodation space configurations for selectively receiving the one OCP network card, the two OCP network cards or the one data processing unit.

The present invention describes an efficient and rapid protocol to generate hepatocyte cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). According to the method, the iPS cells can be differentiated into functional hepatocyte cells in a short time course (less than 15-20 days). The iPSC-derived hepatocyte cells of the invention have a similar gene expression profile to mature hepatocytes. Moreover, the iPSC-derived hepatocyte cells is proved to rescue lethal fulminant hepatic failure in a non-obese diabetic severe combined immunodeficient mouse model. The rapid and efficient differentiation protocol for generation of iPSC-derived hepatocyte cells may offer an alternative option for treatment of liver diseases.
