A Syrian golden hamster model recapitulating ebola hemorrhagic fever.
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2013 Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF) is a severe viral infection for which no effective treatment or vaccine is currently available. While the nonhuman primate (NHP) model is used for final evaluation of experimental vaccines and therapeutic efficacy, rodent ...

Protection of hamsters from mortality by reducing fecal moxifloxacin concentration with DAV131A in a model of moxifloxacin-induced Clostridium difficile colitis [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, American Society for
Microbiology, 2017, 2017 BackgroundLowering the gut exposure to antibiotics during treatments can prevent microbiota disruption. We evaluated the effect of an activated charcoal-based adsorbent, DAV131A, on fecal free moxifloxacin concentration and mortality in a hamster model of moxifloxacin-induced C.

Attenuated fusogenicity and pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant
Nature, 2022 The emergence of the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 is an urgent global health concern1. In this study, our statistical modelling suggests that Omicron has spread more rapidly than the Delta variant in several countries including South Africa.

Journal of Lipid Research, 2023 The retina and brain are separated from the systemic circulation by the anatomical barriers, which are permeable (the outer blood-retinal barrier) and impermeable (the blood-brain and inner blood-retina barriers) to cholesterol.

Endocrinology, 2012 In seasonal mammals, a distinct photoneuroendocrine circuit that involves the pineal hormone melatonin tightly synchronizes reproduction with seasons. In the Syrian hamster, a seasonal model in which sexual activity is inhibited by short days, we have ...

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Bicuspid aortopathy occurs in approximately 50% of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most prevalent congenital cardiac malformation. Although different molecular players and etiological factors (genetic and hemodynamic) have been suggested ...

Travelling Waves for Reaction-Diffusion Equations Forced by Translation Invariant Noise [PDF]
, 2019 Inspired by applications, we consider reaction-diffusion equations on $\mathbb{R}$ that are stochastically forced by a small multiplicative noise term that is white in time, coloured in space and invariant under translations. We show how these equations can be understood as a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) forced by a cylindrical Q ...

A bioinformatics pipeline for the identification of CHO cell differential gene expression from RNA-Seq data [PDF]
Methods Mol Biol. 2017;1603:169-186, 2019 In recent years the publication of genome sequences for the Chinese hamster and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines have facilitated study of these biopharmaceutical cell factories with unprecedented resolution. Our understanding of the CHO cell transcriptome, in particular, has rapidly advanced through the application of next-generation sequencing (
