Maintenance of neutralizing antibodies over ten months in convalescent SARS-CoV-2 afflicted patients
(2021)
Abstract
Knowledge of the level and duration of protective immunity against SARS-CoV-2 after primary infection is of crucial importance for preventive approaches. Currently, there is a lack of evidence on the persistence ...
Host transcriptomic profiling of COVID-19 patients with mild, moderate, and severe clinical outcomes
(2021)
Abstract:
Characterizing key molecular and cellular pathways involved in COVID-19 is essential for disease prognosis and management. We perform shotgun transcriptome sequencing of human RNA obtained from nasopharyngeal ...
New World camelids are sentinels for the presence of Borna disease virus
(2021)
Abstract:
Borna disease (BD), a frequently fatal neurologic disorder caused by Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1), has been observed for decades in horses, sheep, and other mammals in certain regions of Europe. The bicoloured ...
Nitrogen Accumulation in Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) Slurry Exposed to Virucidal Cold Atmospheric Plasma Treatment
(2021)
Abstract:
Viral contamination of edible bivalves is a major food safety issue. We studied the virucidal effect of a cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) source on two virologically different surrogate viruses [a double-stranded ...
Innate and Adaptive Immune Genes Associated with MERS-CoV Infection in Dromedaries
(2021)
Abstract:
The recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has refocused attention to the betacoronaviruses, only eight years after the emergence of another zoonotic betacoronavirus, the Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). ...
African Swine Fever, the forgotten pandemic
(2021)
Summary:
African Swine Fever (ASF) is one of the most important diseases prevalent in swine populations. In recent times, it has devasted the pork industry—both commercial and backyard—throughout much of the world. ASF ...
Single-cell transcriptome identifies FCGR3B upregulated subtype of alveolar macrophages in patients with critical COVID-19
(2021)
Summary:
Understanding host cell heterogeneity is critical for unraveling disease mechanism. Utilizing large-scale single-cell transcriptomics, we analyzed multiple tissue specimens from patients with life-threatening ...
