Physicochemical characterization of biological and synthetic forms of two lipid A-based TLR4 agonists
(Elsevier, 2023-07-08)Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists are recognized as potential immune-enhancing adjuvants and are included in several licensed vaccines. Monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL®, GlaxoSmithKline) is one such TLR4 agonist that has been ... -
Repurposing Niclosamide as a Novel Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Drug by Restricting Entry Protein CD147
(MDPI, 2023-07-18)The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led to the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and the search for effective treatments has been limited. Furthermore, the ... -
Metallic and Non-Metallic Plasmonic Nanostructures for LSPR Sensors
(MDPI, 2023-07-08)Localized surface plasmonic resonance (LSPR) provides a unique scheme for light management and has been demonstrated across a large variety of metallic nanostructures. More recently, non-metallic nanostructures of ... -
Liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 2 elevation contributes to age-associated cognitive decline
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2023-05-22)Elderly individuals frequently report cognitive decline, while various studies indicate hippocampal functional declines with advancing age. Hippocampal function is influenced by ghrelin through hippocampus-expressed growth ... -
Search for light Higgs bosons from supersymmetric cascade decays in pp collisions at √𝑠=13TeV
(SpringerOpen, 2023-07-06)A search is reported for pairs of light Higgs bosons (H1) produced in supersymmetric cascade decays in final states with small missing transverse momentum. A data set of LHC pp collisions collected with the CMS detector ... -
An African-Specific Variant of TP53 Reveals PADI4 as a Regulator of p53-Mediated Tumor Suppression
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2023-07-07)TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in cancer, yet key target genes for p53-mediated tumor suppression remain unidentified. Here, we characterize a rare, African-specific germline variant of TP53 in the DNA-binding ... -
Distinguishing academic science writing from humans or ChatGPT with over 99% accuracy using off-the-shelf machine learning tools
(Elsevier, 2023-06-07)ChatGPT has enabled access to artificial intelligence (AI)-generated writing for the masses, initiating a culture shift in the way people work, learn, and write. The need to discriminate human writing from AI is now both ... -
Parartemiopsis shangrilaensis, a new species of fairy shrimp (Branchiopoda, Anostraca) from Yunnan, with a key to the Chirocephalidae of China
(Pensoft Publishers, 2023-07-04)The fairy shrimp genus Parartemiopsis Rogers, 2005 currently contains a single species reported from Russia and Mongolia. In 2013, an unidentified Parartemiopsis population was reported from the eastern margin of the Tibetan ... -
Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of nanoparticle formulations of L-SseB against Salmonella infection
(Frontiers Media, 2023-06-30)Salmonella enterica, a Gram-negative pathogen, has over 2500 serovars that infect a wide range of hosts. In humans, S. enterica causes typhoid or gastroenteritis and is a major public health concern. In this study, SseB ... -
Measurement of the mass dependence of the transverse momentum of lepton pairs in Drell–Yan production in proton–proton collisions at √𝑠=13TeV
(SpringerOpen, 2023-07-17)The double differential cross sections of the Drell–Yan lepton pair (ℓ+ℓ−, dielectron or dimuon) production are measured as functions of the invariant mass 𝑚ℓℓ, transverse momentum 𝑝T(ℓℓ), and φ∗𝜂. The φ∗𝜂 observable, ... -
