The Novel Viral Non‐Coding RNA LMP2A‐IT1 Promotes the Lytic Replication of EBV
Decades after its discovery, EBV's genome still harbours unannotated “dark matter”. LMP2A‐IT1, a novel EBV‐encoded transcript identified in this work, is strongly upregulated during lytic replication and promotes BZLF1 expression, likely through activation of inflammatory responses, thereby enhancing viral propagation in a self‐reinforcing positive ...

Dynamic models of pneumococcal carriage and the impact of the Heptavalent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine on invasive pneumococcal disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been introduced in national immunisation programmes of most industrialised countries and recently in two African GAVI eligible countries (Rwanda and The Gambia). However the long term effects of

ANGPTL4 exhibits distinct promoter methylation patterns and expression profiles in EBV‐positive versus EBV‐negative gastric cancer. Secreted C‐terminal ANGPTL4 (cANGPTL4) acts as the dominant functional isoform driving GC proliferation, EMT, and neutrophil infiltration. cANGPTL4 promotes neutrophil recruitment via NF‐κB/CXCL8 axis.

Nasopharyngeal carriage and susceptibility patterns of Streptococcu Pneumoniae in Kumasi, Ghana
Penicillin resistant Streptococcus pneunmoniae poses an increasing problem in paediatrics, particularly in less developed countries. Outside of South Africa, little is known about S. pneumoniae susceptibilities in Sub-Saharan Africa. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of pneumococcal colonization and antimicrobial ...

ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome is a rare congenital disorder primarily attributed to heterozygous pathogenic variants of the CHD7 gene. Most pathogenic CHD7 variants are loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants, whereas the interpretation of missense variants remains challenging in the absence of functional evidence for their pathogenicity.
