Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural

Comparison of influenza viral load in nasopharyngeal and midturbinate swabs

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses
Abstract Different specimen types are used for influenza diagnosis but comparative data for viral loads from different swab types are limited. We compared influenza viral loads (determined by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction [RT‐PCR]) in 93 paired midturbinate and nasopharyngeal swab aliquots from influenza

Environmental Changes and Their Effect on the Airway Microbiome: Implications for Airway Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive airway diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), represent the two major chronic airway inflammatory diseases. In both conditions, the airways are exposed to a variety of microbial and environmental stimuli.

NEDD4 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression Through Ubiquitin‐Dependent Degradation of EPHB6

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
NEDD4 drives K48‐linked polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of EPHB6, activating TGF‐beta SMAD2/3 signaling and upregulating EMT markers to promote tumor progression. ABSTRACT Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down‐regulated 4 (NEDD4) has been implicated in the progression of various human malignancies, including hepatocellular
