Strain Traits of Intracranially Administered L‐Type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Prions Are not Significantly Modified During Intraspecies Transmission in Cynomolgus Monkeys

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among the three prion strains of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), classical BSE (C‐BSE) prions are known causative agents of variant Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease. By contrast, human infections with L‐type (L‐) or H‐type (H‐) BSE prions have not been reported.

Silencing of juvenile hormone‐related genes through RNA interference leads to molt failure and high mortality in the spongy moth

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The feasibility of using RNA interference to control the globally important quarantine pest, the spongy moth. Targeting genes related to JHs play an important role in the growth and development of insects. First, the open reading frames (ORFs) of Ldjhamt and Ldjheh were identified and characterized, and the target genes were cloned and double‐stranded ...

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Measuring Propidium Iodide Brightness as a Function of Viability: A High‐Throughput Quantitative Assessment of Hepatic Spheroids

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates our rapid PI‐based spheroid viability assay: hepatocyte spheroids are formed and stained with AO/PI, imaged after a 15‐min incubation, and analyzed for PI brightness normalized to area. This metric correlates strongly with functional urea/DNA output, validating PI intensity as a fast, reliable indicator of spheroid ...

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.
