Pan-viral serology implicates enteroviruses in acute flaccid myelitis. [PDF]

, 2019
Since 2012, the United States of America has experienced a biennial spike in pediatric acute flaccid myelitis (AFM)1-6. Epidemiologic evidence suggests non-polio enteroviruses (EVs) are a potential etiology, yet EV RNA is rarely detected in cerebrospinal

A case of pediatric visceral leishmaniasis-related hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis diagnosed by mNGS [PDF]

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Visceral leishmaniasis-related hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (VL-HLH) is a secondary hemophagocytic syndrome, which can be life-threatening, caused by leishmania and transmitted by infected sandflies. Rapid and accurate identification of leishmania is crucial for clinical strategies.Here, we report an infantile infection in a non-epidemic area of ...

MNG promotes neurogenesis against cerebral ischemic injury (LB626)

The FASEB Journal, 2014
MNG is an active component of sarcocarp of C. officinalis that have shown neuroprotective effects. The aim of the present study is to test whether MNG promote neurogenesis via Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway for brain recovery in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia.

Blood and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in Pneumonia

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2020
Background. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has made a revolution in the mode of pathogen identification. We decided to explore the diagnostic value of blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) as mNGS samples in pneumonia. Methods.

Maltose neopentyl glycol-3 (MNG-3) analogues for membrane protein study [PDF]

The Analyst, 2015
The hydrophobic variants of the original MNG (MNG-3-C10) were evaluated with a few membrane proteins. The optimal MNG was variable for different membrane proteins, indicative of importance of match/mismatch between detergent hydrophobicity and membrane protein propensity to aggregate and denature.
