Ebola virus (EBOV) infection constitutes a significant global public health threat, and no curative treatment is currently available for it. Rapid and accurate detection of EBOV nucleic acid is crucial for controlling the spread of Ebola virus disease ...

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

ABSTRACT Piscine lactococcosis is an important bacterial disease of farmed fish. The causative agents, Lactococcus garvieae, Lactococcus petauri and Lactococcus formosensis, are closely related, which complicates species‐level identification. We developed a conventional multiplex PCR assay targeting species‐specific genes identified by comparative ...

ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a powerful delivery tool for plant genetic transformation and a pivotal platform for agricultural biotechnology. However, laboratory strains of Agrobacterium have remained genetically unoptimized for decades, with genome engineering hindered by inefficient, endogenous homologous recombination systems.

Abstract figure legend Both ATP synthase and adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) play key roles in mediating the permeability transition. The contribution of ANT becomes evident in the presence of atractylate (ATR) at pH 6.5, a condition that prevents ATP synthase channel activity. At pH 7.4, this effect is minimal, suggesting a critical role for ATP

Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

A new exponential RCA (E‐RCA) system was developed and coupled to a toehold system for release of a bridging DNA, allowing for lateral flow detection. The E‐RCA method uses a secondary primer (P2) that binds RCA products (RCAP) to generate extended P2 products that can re‐prime a partially self‐complementary circular template, generating a complete ...

Abstract figure legend We used a murine model of cardiomyocyte‐specific conditional knockout of plakophilin 2 (PKP2cKO, middle panel). Using advanced imaging technology, we unveiled distinct hallmarks of premature ageing in PKP2cKO cardiomyocytes, including DNA damage and loss of repressed heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery, and mitochondrial ...

Voltage‐gated potassium channels mediate thyroid hormone control of skeletal muscle excitability
Abstract figure legend Thyroid hormone (TH)‐dependent remodelling of potassium (K+) channel networks regulates skeletal muscle (SkM) excitability. Triiodothyronine (T3), locally generated from thyroxine (T4) by type 2 deiodinase (D2), binds thyroid hormone receptors (TRα/β) and modulates transcription via thyroid response elements (TREs).
