DiMA: Sequence Diversity Dynamics Analyser for Viruses [PDF]
Sequence diversity is one of the major challenges in the design of diagnostic, prophylactic and therapeutic interventions against viruses. DiMA is a novel tool that is big data-ready and designed to facilitate the dissection of sequence diversity dynamics for viruses.

An in-host model of HIV incorporating latent infection and viral mutation [PDF]
We construct a seven-component model of the in-host dynamics of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type-1 (i.e, HIV) that accounts for latent infection and the propensity of viral mutation. A dynamical analysis is conducted and a theorem is presented which characterizes the long time behavior of the model.

An injectable, adhesive hydrogel integrating 2D‐MoS2 and 5‐fluorouracil (AlgNB/MoS2/5‐FU) is developed for near‐infrared‐triggered photothermal therapy and localized drug delivery. The adhesive hydrogel demonstrates superior tumor anchoring, efficient photothermal conversion, and synergistic inhibition of colorectal cancer progression, offering a ...

Flow Cytometry Confirmation Post Newborn Screening for SCID in England
An evaluation program for newborn screening for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency began in England in September 2021 based on TREC analysis. Flow cytometry is being used as the follow up diagnostic test for patients with low/absent TRECS.

Mathematical analysis of an in-host model of viral dynamics with spatial heterogeneity [PDF]
We consider a spatially-heterogeneous generalization of a well-established model for the dynamics of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus-type 1 (HIV) within a susceptible host. The model consists of a nonlinear system of three coupled reaction-diffusion equations with parameters that may vary spatially.

Highly sprouting organoid‐like neurovascular spheroids (NVUs) are developed, featuring cell‐loaded poly‐3‐hydroxybutyrate 4‐hydroxybutyrate(P34HB) porous microsphere cores embedded within Gelatin Methacryloyl. NVUs formed complex vascular plexuses and secreted extracellular matrix in vitro, simulating autologous nerves and blood interaction.

Quasispecies dynamics on a network of interacting genotypes and idiotypes: Applications to autoimmunity and immunodeficiency [PDF]
In spite of their many facets, the phenomena of autoimmunity and immunodeficiency seem to be related to each other through the subtle links connecting retroviral mutation and action to immune response and adaptation. In a previous work, we introduced a network model of how a set of interrelated genotypes (called a quasispecies, in the stationary state)

Opportunities in Therapeutic mRNA Stabilization: Sequence, Structure, Adjuvants and Vectors
Current mRNA lipid nanoparticles rely on cold storage, which increases the cost and reduces access to the vaccines. As mRNA expands to other clinical opportunities, better methods to stabilize the medicines during shipping, storage, and delivery are needed.

Radiosensitive Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease [PDF]
Inherited defects in components of the nonhomologous end-joining DNA repair mechanism produce a T-B-NK+ severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) characterized by heightened sensitivity to ionizing radiation. Patients with the radiosensitive form of SCID may also have increased short- and long-term sensitivity to the alkylator-based chemotherapy ...
