Monitoring reactivation of latent HIV by label-free gradient light interference microscopy
Summary: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can infect cells and take a quiescent and nonexpressive state called latency. In this study, we report insights provided by label-free, gradient light interference microscopy (GLIM) about the changes in dry ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.
