Consistency of spatial dynamics of HIV-1 and HCV among HIV-1/HCV coinfected drug users in China

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background As the transmission routes of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are similar, previous studies based on separate research on HIV-1 and HCV assumed a similar transmission pattern.

Functional genomic analysis delineates regulatory mechanisms of GWAS-identified bipolar disorder risk variants

Genome Medicine, 2022
Background Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified multiple risk loci for bipolar disorder (BD). However, pinpointing functional (or causal) variants in the reported risk loci and elucidating their regulatory mechanisms remain challenging.

Immunization with a fusion protein vaccine candidate generated from truncated peptides of human enterovirus 71 protects mice from lethal enterovirus 71 infections

Virology Journal, 2020
Background Prophylactic vaccines are critical in preventing hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) primarily caused by human enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection. Children aged less than 5 years are especially susceptible to EV71 infections.

Monkeys mutant for PKD1 recapitulate human autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

Nature Communications, 2019
Most cases of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are due to mutations in PKD1. Here, Tsukiyama et al. generate monkeys with mutations in PKD1 and show that animals recapitulate key pathological features of the human disease, suggesting ...
