HIV-1 Circulating Recombinant Forms (CRFs) and Unique Recombinant Forms (URFs) in Israel, 2010–2018 [PDF]
Viruses, 2022 Monitoring HIV-1 circulating recombinant forms (CRFs) and unique recombinant forms (URFs) is important for disease surveillance. Recombination may affect prevention efforts and interfere with the diagnosis and treatment of HIV-1 infection.

Viruses Previously Identified in Brazil as Belonging to HIV-1 CRF72_BF1 Represent Two Closely Related Circulating Recombinant Forms, One of Which, Designated CRF122_BF1, Is Also Circulating in Spain [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Circulating recombinant forms (CRFs) are important components of the HIV-1 pandemic. Those derived from recombination between subtype B and subsubtype F1, with 18 reported, most of them of South American origin, are among the most diverse. In this study,

A central role for C1q/TNF-related protein 13 (CTRP13) in modulating food intake and body weight. [PDF]
, 2013 C1q/TNF-related protein 13 (CTRP13), a hormone secreted by adipose tissue (adipokines), helps regulate glucose metabolism in peripheral tissues. We previously reported that CTRP13 expression is increased in obese and hyperphagic leptin-deficient mice ...
