BC‐11 is a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor that impedes SARS‐CoV‐2 host cell entry
Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 356, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Drug repurposing has the potential to accelerate the discovery of TMPRSS2 inhibitors acting as COVID‐19 antivirals. In this regard, a low throughput screening led to the identification of BC‐11 as a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor (IC50 = 1.44 µM), displaying significant SARS‐CoV‐2 entry inhibition (EC50 = 66 µM). Abstract Host cell entry of severe

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), while holistic and historically esteemed, faces challenges in “miracle cures” due to slow onset, long cycles, and difficulty controlling quality. This study obtains the active ingredients, glabridin (GLA) and puerarin (PUE), from Ge‐Gen Decoction (GGD), developing a safe and effective drug delivery system, GLA‐PUE ...

Investigating the Relationship Between World Development Indicators and the Occurrence of Disease Outbreaks in the 21st Century: A Case Study [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The timely identification of socio-economic sectors vulnerable to a disease outbreak presents an important challenge to the civic authorities and healthcare workers interested in outbreak mitigation measures. This problem was traditionally solved by studying the aberrances in small-scale healthcare data. In this paper, we leverage data driven models to

Outbreak Management and Implications of a Nosocomial Norovirus Outbreak [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2007 Noroviruses are enterically transmitted and are a frequent cause of gastroenteritis, affecting 23 million people annually in the United States. We describe a norovirus outbreak and its control in a tertiary care hospital during February-May 2004.Patients and health care workers met the case definition if they had new onset of vomiting and/or diarrhea ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Iron deficiency reduces monocyte dendritic cell progenitor (MDP) numbers by inhibiting migration and proliferation while promoting apoptosis, subsequently reducing downstream common dendritic cell precursors (CDP) and dendritic cell (DC). Impaired DCs enter the lungs via blood circulation, where reduced antigen presentation impairs T‐cell activation ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study provides support for the immunity debt hypothesis, revealing a 131.72% increase in influenza rates during winter and a 161.23% rise in summer, 1 year following the global easing of COVID‐19 restrictions. This study offers empirical evidence of immunity debt on a global level, highlighting the importance of incorporating this concept into the

Epileptiform Activity and Seizure Risk Follow Long‐Term Non‐Linear Attractor Dynamics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study leverages the HAVOK framework to model long‐term, nonlinear attractor dynamics underlying epileptiform activity and seizure risk in epilepsy patients. By identifying key forcing mechanisms driving chaotic transitions, the findings improve seizure risk forecasting over multi‐day cycles and provide a pathway for personalized, data‐driven ...
