PAD-Beads enrichment enhances detection of PrPSc using real-time quaking-induced conversion
BMC Research Notes, 2019 Objective Scrapie is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) that naturally occurs in sheep and goats. This fatal neurodegenerative disease results from misfolding of the normal cellular prion protein (PrPC) to a pathogenic prion protein form ...

MiRNA expression profiles in the brains of mice infected with scrapie agents 139A, ME7 and S15
Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2016 MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of non-coding endogenous small-molecule single-stranded RNA that regulates complementary mRNA through degradation or translation of the mRNA targets. Usually, miRNAs show remarkable cell and tissues specificity.

A 3D Human Neuron‐on‐Chip Platform to Monitor Neuronal Injury Responses
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel 3D Neuron‐on‐Chip model that can maintain human PSC‐derived excitatory prefrontal cortex neurons in 3D hydrogels and can be used to monitor neuronal injury responses over time. Results show injury‐induced acute neuronal excitotoxicity, declining neuronal connectivity, and the activation of a neurodegenerative, SASP‐like ...

Astrocyte in prion disease: a double-edged sword
Neural Regeneration Research, 2022 Prion diseases are infectious protein misfolding disorders of the central nervous system that result from misfolding of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) into the pathologic isoform PrPSc.

Scientific American, 1995 The human prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative maladies that may present as sporadic, genetic, or infectious illnesses. The sporadic form is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) while the inherited disorders are called familial (f) CJD, Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker (GSS) disease and fatal familial insomnia (FFI).

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

Infectious Dose of a 2018 Senecavirus A Isolate in Neonatal Pigs
Veterinary SciencesSenecavirus A (SVA) is a picornavirus that causes vesicular disease in swine and has been associated with increased neonatal mortality. Although SVA had only been detected sporadically in the United States since the 1980s, there was a sharp increase in ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The aptamer WHY‐3E identifies PrPC as a CRC driver. Stabilized by USP18, endocytosed PrPC forms a LYN/STAT3 complex, upregulating MSN transcription to promote metastasis. Crucially, WHY‐3E sensitively detects PrPC‐positive circulating exosomes, establishing a robust theoretical foundation for non‐invasive clinical diagnostics.
