Ultrafast Exciton and Trion Dynamics in High‐Quality Encapsulated MoS2 Monolayers

physica status solidi (b), Volume 260, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
The ultrafast dynamics of excitons with narrow linewidth and trions in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)‐encapsulated monolayer MoS2 have been studied using a pump–probe microscopy setup with high spatial and temporal resolution, broad spectral coverage, and pump energy tunability.

Mouse guanylate‐binding protein 1 does not mediate antiviral activity against influenza virus in vitro or in vivo

Immunology &Cell Biology, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 383-396, May-June 2023., 2023
We have used complementary approaches to demonstrate that neither overexpressed or endogenous mouse guanylate‐binding protein (GBP) 1, an intracellular GTPase, plays a major role in modulating influenza A virus (IAV) infection in vitro nor did it modulate IAV in a mouse model of infection.

Novel identification and modulation of the mechanosensitive Piezo1 channel in human myometrium

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 601, Issue 9, Page 1675-1690, 1 May 2023., 2023
Abstract figure legend Proposed pathway for Piezo1‐mediated quiescence in human myometrium. Graphic created with BioRender.com. Abstract Approximately 10% of US births deliver preterm before 37 weeks of completed gestation. Premature infants are at risk for life‐long debilitating morbidities and death, and spontaneous preterm labour explains 50% of ...

Human endogenous retroviruses in cancer: Oncogenesis mechanisms and clinical implications

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) are viral sequences integrated into the human genome, resulting from the infection of human germ‐line cells by ancient exogenous retroviruses. Despite losing their replication and retrotransposition abilities, HERVs appear to have been co‐opted in human physiological functions while their aberrant ...

Second Booster BNT162b2 Restores SARS‐CoV‐2 Humoral Response in Patients With Multiple Myeloma, Excluding Those Under Anti‐BCMA Therapy

HemaSphere, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
COVID‐19 vaccination leads to a less intense humoral response in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) compared with healthy individuals, whereas the SARS‐CoV‐2‐specific immunity fades over time. The purpose of this study was to explore the kinetics of SARS‐CoV‐2 neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) in patients with MM after vaccination with the BNT162b2 mRNA ...

Mpeg1 is not essential for antibacterial or antiviral immunity, but is implicated in antigen presentation

Immunology &Cell Biology, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 529-546, August 2022., 2022
Contrary to previous reports, Mpeg1 is not required for bacterial killing by phagocytes and antibacterial immunity. It also appears to affect antigen presentation. Abstract To control infections phagocytes can directly kill invading microbes. Macrophage‐expressed gene 1 (Mpeg1), a pore‐forming protein sometimes known as perforin‐2, is reported to be ...

Sustained but Declining Humoral Immunity Against SARS‐CoV‐2 at 9 Months Postvaccination With BNT162b2: A Prospective Evaluation in 309 Healthy Individuals

HemaSphere, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
The sustainability of coronavirus 19 (COVID‐19) vaccine‐induced immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) is critical to be determined to inform public health decisions on vaccination programs and prevention measures against COVID‐19.

Erythrocytes, a New Contributor to Age‐Associated Loss of Blood–Brain Barrier Integrity

Advanced Science, Volume 8, Issue 20, October 20, 2021., 2021
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a vital structure that protects the brain from inhibitory molecules found in circulation. However, this barrier has been shown to become leaky with age. This study finds that erythrocytes derived from old mammals (mice and people) have deleterious effects on the integrity of the BBB, when compared to the young cells ...

‘Uncircumcised boys’ and ‘girl Spartans’: Youth, Gender and Generation in Colonial Insurgencies and Counterinsurgency, c. 1954–59

Gender &History, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 536-556, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Both male and female youth were significant actors in anti‐colonial insurgencies, but their involvement has been neglected in existing historiographies due to the marginalisation of youth voices in colonial archives. This article analyses the causes of youth insurgency and colonial counterinsurgency responses in two British colonies, Kenya and
