To determine the role of different cellular N-linked glycan structures and sialic acids in EHV1 infection of EREC, basolateral and apical cell surfaces were pre-incubated with different enzymes (PNGase F and neuraminidase) or control PBS prior to inoculation with EHV1. More details are given in...
Additionally, this inhibitor exhibited an additive effect against SARS-CoV-2 when combined with Remdesivir. Furthermore, FB2001 significantly reduced the SARS-CoV-2 copy numbers and titers in the lungs and brains in vivo, and alleviated the pathological symptoms. In addition, FB2001 could ...
Fallot-type absent pulmonary valve is a rare and complex congenital heart disease. Repair surgery for this condition during the neonatal period has a mortality rate of over 50%. We reported a neonate with Fallot-type absent pulmonary valve and occlusion
