No Evidence of Infection with Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus in Recipients of Encapsulated Porcine Islet Xenografts

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2000
Transplantation of pig tissues into humans has the potential for cotransferring pig infections. Knowledge of the epidemiology of pig infections transmissible to humans allows the development of risk limitation strategies at the source herd level, but ...

A new approach for sensitivity analysis of the StormWater Management Model applied in an airport

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2023
Sensitivity analysis of urban flood model parameters is important for efficient and accurate flood simulation. In order to explore the problems of large sampling parameters and nonlinear correlation between input and output variables, this paper proposed

Gene Therapy and Gene Editing in Type 1 Diabetes: CRISPR‐Based β‐Cell Replacement and Treg Immune Modulation Approaches

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic autoimmune disease marked by the destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin. Despite advances in insulin delivery and glucose monitoring technologies, patients remain at risk for acute and long‐term complications, underscoring the need for ...

To Grandmother's House We Go: Informal Childcare and Female Labor Mobility

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We document how childcare costs and the location of extended family influence the labor supply and mobility of US women. Women return to their home locations immediately before fertility events, suggesting that informal childcare needs may motivate home migration. Women who live near their parents have lower child earnings penalties.

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

Ancient origin and complex evolution of porcine endogenous retroviruses

open access: yesBiosafety and Health, 2020
Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are proviruses that have medical value in xenotransplantation. However, the evolutionary process leading to the generation of modern PERVs is not well understood.

Determination of the copy numbers of type A porcine endogenous retroviruses in domestic pigs and wild boars

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2017
Modern transplantology is in need of transplants. To solve this problem, the use of animal organs and tissues for grafting to humans (xenografts) has been proposed. However, the progress in this direction is hampered by the risk of zoogenous infection of
