Comparison of “hock-a-loogie” saliva versus nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs for detecting common respiratory pathogens

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Self-collection of saliva samples has attracted considerable attention in recent years, particularly during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. However, studies investigating the detection of other common respiratory pathogens in saliva samples are ...

Validation of the Reduced Unified Continuum Formulation Against In Vitro 4D-Flow MRI [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
In our recent work, we introduced the reduced unified continuum formulation for vascular fluid-structure interaction (FSI) and demonstrated enhanced solver accuracy, scalability, and performance compared to conventional approaches. We further verified the formulation against Womersley's deformable wall theory. In this study, we assessed its performance

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Statistical physics and mesoscopic modeling to interpret tethered particle motion experiments [PDF]

open access: yesMethods (2019), 2019
Tethered particle motion experiments are versatile single-molecule techniques enabling one to address in vitro the molecular properties of DNA and its interactions with various partners involved in genetic regulations. These techniques provide raw data such as the tracked particle amplitude of movement, from which relevant information about DNA ...

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.
