Standards for nationally consistent data and measures within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network. Version 4.0 [PDF]
This document was first published in March 2008, setting the standards for the first Nationally Consistent Data and Measures (NCDM) for the National Environmental Public Health Tracking Program (Tracking Program). The purpose of these NCDM was to develop

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

Environmental Hazards and Health Effects Program : chemical emergency preparedness and response activities [PDF]
The release of a chemical weapon of mass destruction (WMD) could result in hundreds or thousands of casualties, and the source of the release likely would be obvious to public health officials.

Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings
Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
