Influenza: Biology, Infection, and Control Bryan Roberts I had a little bird Its name was Enza I opened the window And in-flew-Enza Jump rope song (USA, 1918) Overview The growth of the human population has profoundly affected the global ecosystem, influencing the animal population balance, ...
Given the central importance of protein synthesis, it is unsurprising that dysregulation or defects in mRNA translation are widely linked to disease, including cancer, neurological or metabolic disorders, and viral infection. In recent years, technical advances have challenged hitherto established dogmas,...
Furthermore, conformationally distinct amyloid aggregates of the yeast prion Sup35 can be propagated in vitro that on infection, lead to several distinct prion strains (King and Diaz-Avalos, 2004, Tanaka et al., 2004). Specifically, two polymorphs of Sup35 fibrils that lead to different ...

The emergence of antibiotic resistance within a tolerant biofilm population could therefore constitute an aggravating factor increasing the frequency of therapeutic failure and infection recurrence. Whereas the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes is well-established in biofilms22,23,24,25,26,...
The epicardium, the mesothelial envelope of the vertebrate heart, is the source of multiple cardiac cell lineages during embryonic development and provides signals that are essential to myocardial growth and repair. Here we generate self-organizing human pluripotent stem cell-derived epicardioids that ...
simium, P. brasilianum, P. cynomolgi, P. inui and P anti-parasiticactivity as well as enhancing the adaptive immune response to Plasmodium [162-165 and CD8+T cells, are implicated in protection against P. falciparum liver stage infection has fueled 年份: 2008 ...
In addition, densely grown plants might create a humid micro-environment that would favor infection by fungal or microbial pathogens. It would thus be interesting to know if induction of defence genes by competition plays a role in other biotic stresses, including fungal or bacterial infections....
Optical microscopes today have pushed the limits of speed, quality, and observable space in biological specimens revolutionizing how we view life today. Further, specific labeling of samples for imaging has provided insight into how life functions. This
in the immune response. B cell epitopes (BCEs) are specific regions on the surface of antigens that induce humoral immunity by being recognized by B cell receptors or specific antibodies. Identifying BCEs can aid in designing effective vaccines, thus contributing to disease prevention and diagnosis...
