Current Advancements of Probiotic Foods and Their Role in Sustainable Food Security
ABSTRACT Probiotic foods have evolved from traditional fermented products to scientifically validated functional foods, defined by the FAO and WHO as live microorganism that confer a health benefit on the host when administered in adequate amounts, with effects being strain, does and end point specific.

Advancements in single-cell techniques for examining the HIV reservoir: pathways to a cure
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is largely incurable, due to the presence of a viral reservoir, which primarily consists of resting CD4+ T cells and other long-lived cells like macrophages.

Heritability of the HIV-1 reservoir size and decay under long-term suppressive ART
The HIV reservoir is a major hurdle for a cure of HIV, but the factors determining its size and dynamics remain unclear. Here the authors show in a large cohort of 610 HIV-1 infected individuals, who are on suppressive ART for a median of 5.4 years, that

Key Players in HIV-1 Transcriptional Regulation: Targets for a Functional Cure
HIV-1 establishes a life-long infection when proviral DNA integrates into the host genome. The provirus can then either actively transcribe RNA or enter a latent state, without viral production.

Data‐Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry in Tumor Classification and Cancer Biomarker Research
Abstract Cancer treatment is far from optimal also because current classification systems do not reflect the complex molecular status of the tumor and its phenotype in sufficient detail. To construct molecular tumor classifiers, omics tools provide complex molecular data reflecting many aspects from genotype to phenotype.

Delivering CRISPR to the HIV-1 reservoirs
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection is well known as one of the most complex and difficult viral infections to cure. The difficulty in developing curative strategies arises in large part from the development of latent viral reservoirs (LVRs) within anatomical and cellular compartments of a host.

The impact of COVID‐19 on public perceptions of wild meat in Central Africa
Abstract Wild meat is a significant source of food and income generation in Central Africa. However, there is little knowledge of how the assumed link between COVID‐19 and wild meat consumption has been discussed by the media and received by the public. In this study, we conducted media content analysis of 264 articles published in 2019–2020 related to

Establishment of Drug‐Resistant HIV‐1 in Latent Reservoirs [PDF]
This article discusses strategies for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in developing countries where interventions may not be affordable available feasible or safe. It comments on a report which used a novel method to characterize the latent reservoir in the presence of ongoing viral replication which provided strong evidence that ...

Disease Progression Mathematical Modeling With a Case Study on Hepatitis B Virus Infection
ABSTRACT Chronic Hepatitis B presents a significant health and socioeconomic burden. The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma remains elevated although treatments are available. Achieving an optimal treatment regimen necessitates a deep comprehension of the dynamic relationship between the virus and its host across disease states.
