SARS-CoV-2 in an immunocompromised host: convalescent plasma therapy and viral evolution elucidated by whole genome sequencing [PDF]

, 2023
The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 within immunocompromised hosts who fail to clear the virus over many months has been proposed as a route to the development of Variants of Concern (VoCs). We present a case of an immunocompromised male patient with a prolonged

Quantitative proteomics analysis reveals unique but overlapping protein signatures in HIV infections

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2021
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) exploits human host factors to complete its life cycle. Hence, discovery of HIV-regulated host proteins markers would better our understanding of the virus life-cycle and its contribution to pathogenesis
