ACE2 Shedding and the Role in COVID-19
Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a transmembrane glycoprotein, is an important part of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). In the COVID-19 epidemic, it was found to be the receptor of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2 ...

A mathematical model of ctDNA shedding predicts tumor detection size
A mathematical model of tumor evolution and ctDNA shedding informs new cancer early detection approaches. Early cancer detection aims to find tumors before they progress to an incurable stage.

Shedding light on GPIbα shedding
Purpose of review Ectodomain shedding has been investigated since the late 1980s. The abundant and platelet specific GPIbα receptor is cleaved by ADAM17 resulting in the release of its ectodomain called glycocalicin. This review will address the role of glycocalicin as an end-stage marker of platelet turnover and storage lesion

Pathogenicity and Viral Shedding of MERS-CoV in Immunocompromised Rhesus Macaques
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) has recently emerged in the Middle East. Since 2012, there have been approximately 2,100 confirmed cases, with a 35% case fatality rate. Disease severity has been linked to patient health status, as

Shedding of APP limits its synaptogenic activity and cell adhesion properties
The Amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a central role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and has essential synapse promoting functions. Synaptogenic activity as well as cell adhesion properties of APP presumably depend on trans-cellular dimerization via its ...

Modeling the catarrhal stage of Bordetella pertussis upper respiratory tract infections in mice
Pertussis (whooping cough) is a highly transmissible human respiratory disease caused by Bordetella pertussis, a human-restricted pathogen. Animal models generally involve pneumonic infections induced by depositing large numbers of bacteria in the lungs ...
