Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Ribavirin for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever: systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2010
Background Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever epidemics often occur in areas where health services are limited, and result in high case fatality rates. Besides intensive care, ribavirin is often recommended.

Era of direct acting anti-viral agents for the treatment of hepatitis C. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hepatitis C infection is universal and the most common indication of liver transplantation in the United States. The period of less effective interferon therapy with intolerable side effects has gone.

A new paradigm evaluating cost per cure of HCV infection in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: New interferon (IFN)-free treatments for hepatitis C are more effective, safer but more expensive than current IFN-based therapies. Comparative data of these, versus current first generation protease inhibitors (PI) with regard to costs and ...

Therapy With Doxycycline and Hydroxychloroquine Enables Surgical Excision of Ulcerated Cutaneous Granulomas in a Patient With Ataxia Telangiectasia

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rubella virus vaccine strain can cause granulomas in patients with inborn errors of immunity that may evolve into chronic, recalcitrant ulcers. This report details treatment of ulcerated rubella granulomas in a patient with ataxia telangiectasia with doxycycline and hydroxychloroquine resulting in partial ulcer healing within 4 weeks ...

Multiple effects of silymarin on the hepatitis C virus lifecycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Silymarin, an extract from milk thistle (Silybum marianum), and its purified flavonolignans have been recently shown to inhibit hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, both in vitro and in vivo.

Electromechanical modelling and simulation of human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes predict drug‐induced contractility effects

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A study described in this paper describes a new tool for hiPSC‐CM electromechanical behaviour simulations using mathematical modelling. The model enables in silico assays making drug testing quick, comprehensive and accurate. New hiPSC‐CM models can be used as a platform to integrate in vitro and in silico findings.

Beat‐to‐beat variability of ventricular repolarization reveals sex‐specific instability and proarrhythmic risk

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A mechanistic framework linking sex‐dependent dynamical instability to proarrhythmic risk. Sex‐specific human ventricular models show that upstream modulators, including biological sex, hormones, drugs and heart disease, promote steeper APD restitution in female than male and enhance dynamical instability.

Viral RNA at two stages of reovirus infection is required for the induction of necroptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Necroptosis, a regulated form of necrotic cell death, requires the activation of the RIP3 kinase. Here, we identify that infection of host cells with reovirus can result in necroptosis.
