A critical review on antiviral peptides derived from viral glycoproteins and host receptors to decoy herpes simplex virus

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 11, Page 2036-2052, November 2023., 2023
HSV glycoproteins gC, gB, gD, gH and host cell receptors such as HSPG, nectin and HVEM can be used as targets to develop antiviral agents. By using proteins or peptides derived from these glycoproteins and receptors, it is possible to create decoys that can inhibit HSV attachment, entry, or fusion.

Hydrovoltaic energy from water droplets: Device configurations, mechanisms, and applications

Droplet, Volume 2, Issue 4, October 2023., 2023
Hydrovoltaic technology can harvest electricity from water by its direct interaction with functional materials. Droplet‐based hydrovoltaic devices hold great promise for the development of innovative ways to harvest mechanical energy from intermittent water sources in the form of raindrops, rather than relying on continuous sources such as rivers ...

Ferroptosis‐modulating small molecules for targeting drug‐resistant cancer: Challenges and opportunities in manipulating redox signaling

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 614-682, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent cell death program that is characterized by excessive lipid peroxidation. Triggering ferroptosis has been proposed as a promising strategy to fight cancer and overcome drug resistance in antitumor therapy. Understanding the molecular interactions and structural features of ferroptosis‐inducing compounds might ...

Distributed finite‐time formation control of multiple Euler–Lagrange systems under directed graphs

IET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 16, Issue 13, Page 1299-1311, September 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper investigates the finite‐time formation problem of multiple Euler–Lagrange systems subject to model uncertainties and external disturbances under directed graphs. An adaptive distributed control approach is developed by integrating dynamic gain control and adaptive control based on the consensus theory and the finite‐time stability ...

The effect of double taxation treaties and territorial tax systems on foreign direct investment: evidence for Spain

Economics: Journal Articles, 2019
The paper evaluates the effect of Double Taxation Treaties (DTTs) on Spain’s inward and outward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for the period 1993–2013. Estimates produce positive and statistically significant coefficients.

Is a transactions tax an effective means to stabilize the foreign exchange market?

PSL Quarterly Review, 2012
The desirability of a transactions tax in the foreign exchange market, or Tobin tax, depends on whether the tax deters short-term, destabilizing trade.

Tax expenditure and the treatment of tax incentives for investment

Economics: Journal Articles, 2019
Governments use tax expenditures to boost investment, innovation and employment. However, these schemes are largely opaque, costly and often ineffective in reaching their stated goals. They also frequently trigger unwanted side effects.

Phylogenetic Study of Dengue-3 Virus in Taiwan with Sequence Analysis of the Core Gene

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2008
Dengue virus serotype 3 (dengue-3) has been classified into five genotypes (I–V) by phylogenetic analysis based on different viral genes. To investigate the genetic variability and evolutionary character of the dengue-3 isolates in southern Taiwan from ...

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of a dengue virus serotype 3 isolated from a Chinese traveler returned from Laos

Virology Journal, 2018
Background Dengue virus (DENV) infection caused by international visitors has become a public health concern in China. Although sporadic imported cases of DENV have been documented in Yunnan, China since 2000, a complete genome sequence of dengue virus ...
