Transiently Transfected Mammalian Cell Cultures: An Adaptable and Effective Platform for Virus-like Particle-Based Vaccines against Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus

Viruses, 2022
RNA viruses, such as foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), have error-prone replication resulting in the continuous emergence of new viral strains capable of evading current vaccine coverage.

Interaction of Structural Glycoprotein E2 of Classical Swine Fever Virus with Protein Phosphatase 1 Catalytic Subunit Beta (PPP1CB)

Viruses, 2019
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) E2 protein, the major virus structural glycoprotein, is an essential component of the viral envelope. E2 is involved in virus absorption, induction of a protective immune response and is critical for virulence in swine.

Effect of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus 2B Viroporin on Expression and Extraction of Mammalian Cell Culture Produced Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus-like Particles

Vaccines, 2022
To improve the production of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) molecular vaccines, we sought to understand the effects of the FMD virus (FMDV) 2B viroporin in an experimental, plasmid-based, virus-like particle (VLP) vaccine.

Localized Modes of the Linear Periodic Schr\"{o}dinger Operator with a Nonlocal Perturbation [PDF]

, 2008
We consider the existence of localized modes corresponding to eigenvalues of the periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operator $-\partial_x^2+ V(x)$ with an interface. The interface is modeled by a jump either in the value or the derivative of $V(x)$ and, in general,

Method for quantification of porcine type I interferon activity using luminescence, by direct and indirect means

BMC Biotechnology, 2022
Background Type I interferons are widely used in research applications and as biotherapeutics. Current assays used to measure interferon concentrations, such as plaque reduction assays and ELISA, are expensive, technically challenging, and may take days ...

A Highly Effective African Swine Fever Virus Vaccine Elicits a Memory T Cell Response in Vaccinated Swine

Pathogens, 2022
African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) is the causative agent of a highly contagious and lethal vector-borne disease in suids. Recently, a live attenuated virus strain, developed using the currently circulating, virulent Georgia strain (ASFV-G) with a single ...

Plum pudding random medium model of biological tissue toward remote microscopy from spectroscopic light scattering [PDF]

, 2017
Biological tissue has a complex structure and exhibits rich spectroscopic behavior. There is \emph{no} tissue model up to now able to account for the observed spectroscopy of tissue light scattering and its anisotropy.

Planar metamaterial with transmission and reflection that depend on the direction of incidence [PDF]

, 2008
We report that normal incidence reflection and transmission of circularly polarized electromagnetic waves from and through planar split-ring microwave metamaterials with chiral symmetry breaking depends on the incidence direction and handedness of ...

Exploring the Molecular Basis of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Pathogenesis in Swine: Insights from Expression Profiling of Primary Macrophages Infected with M51R Mutant Virus

Pathogens, 2023
Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is an emergent virus affecting livestock in the US. Previously, using a recombinant VSV carrying the M51R mutation in the matrix protein (rNJ0612NME6-M51R), we evaluated the pathogenesis of this virus in pigs. Our results
