Overview of Therapeutic Ultrasound Applications and Safety Considerations: 2024 Update

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 381-433, March 2025.
A 2012 review of therapeutic ultrasound was published to educate researchers and physicians on potential applications and concerns for unintended bioeffects (doi: 10.7863/jum.2012.31.4.623). This review serves as an update to the parent article, highlighting advances in therapeutic ultrasound over the past 12 years.

Blood ties: ABO is a trans-species polymorphism in primates [PDF]

, 2012
The ABO histo-blood group, the critical determinant of transfusion incompatibility, was the first genetic polymorphism discovered in humans. Remarkably, ABO antigens are also polymorphic in many other primates, with the same two amino acid changes responsible for A and B specificity in all species sequenced to date.

Antiviral Activity of Carbon Dots: Strategies and Mechanisms of Action

Small Structures, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2025.
Carbon dots are capable to interact with viruses through different mechanisms of action, having an antiviral and virucidal effect: inhibition of viral entry into the cells, disruption of viral replication, and damage of the virion structure. The COVID‐19 pandemic profoundly changes the perception of the impact of viral diseases on society and the ...

Bat Caliciviruses and Human Noroviruses Are Antigenically Similar and Have Overlapping Histo-Blood Group Antigen Binding Profiles

mBio, 2018
Emerging zoonotic viral diseases remain a challenge to global public health. Recent surveillance studies have implicated bats as potential reservoirs for a number of viral pathogens, including coronaviruses and Ebola viruses.

Hypoxia‐induced increase in sphingomyelin synthase 2 aggravates ischemic skeletal muscle inflammation

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 5, Page 1086-1105, March 2025.
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) enhances sphingomyelin synthase 2 (SMS2) production, which increases sphingomyelin concentrations in ischemic skeletal muscles, promoting inflammation via the NFκB pathway. Hypoxia induces this process, which hampers muscle inflammation post‐CLI.

Comparative Analysis of Diagnostic Techniques for Helicobacter pylori Infection: Insights for Effective Therapy

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 6, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Effective therapy against Helicobacter pylori hinges on a timely and accurate diagnosis. The objective is to assess H. pylori infection in dyspeptic patients and compare various indicative tests. After approval, gastrointestinal biopsies and blood samples of 96 subjects exhibiting gastroduodenal symptoms were collected; both invasive and non ...

Histo-blood group glycans in the context of personalized medicine [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta 1860 (2016) 1596-1607, 2019
Background: A subset of histo-blood group antigens including ABO and Lewis are oligosaccharide structures which may be conjugated to lipids or proteins. They are known to be important recognition motifs not only in the context of blood transfusions, but also in infection and cancer development.

How type‐2 dendritic cells induce Th2 differentiation: Instruction, repression, or fostering T cell‐T cell communication?

Allergy, Volume 80, Issue 2, Page 395-407, February 2025.
Abstract Allergic disease is caused by the activation of allergen‐specific CD4+ type‐2 T follicular helper cells (Tfh2) and T helper 2 (Th2) effector cells that secrete the cytokines IL‐4, IL‐5, IL‐9, and IL‐13 upon allergen encounter, thereby inducing IgE production by B cells and tissue inflammation.

Norwalk Virus–specific Binding to Oyster Digestive Tissues

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
The primary pathogens related to shellfishborne gastroenteritis outbreaks are noroviruses. These viruses show persistence in oysters, which suggests an active mechanism of virus concentration.
