Lentiviral Vectors

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2004
Vectors based on lentiviruses have reached a state of development such that clinical studies using these agents as gene delivery vehicles have now begun. They have particular advantages for certain in vitro and in vivo applications especially the unique capability of integrating genetic material into the genome of non-dividing cells.

Retroviral vectors [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Pathology, 2000
Traditionally, the retrovirus is regarded as an enemy to be overcome. However, for the past two decades retroviruses have been harnessed as vehicles for transferring genes into eukaryotic cells, a process known as transduction. During this time, the technology has moved from being a scientific laboratory tool to a potential clinical molecular medicine ...

Vector-City Vector Distance Transform

open access: yesComputer Vision and Image Understanding, 2001
Summary: This paper examines the current chamfer and vector distance transforms for encoding objects as distance fields. A new vector distance transform is introduced which uses the city-block chamfer distance transform as a basis. Detailed error analysis using real CT data is presented, demonstrating the improved accuracy of the new approach over ...

Determinants of Chikungunya and O’nyong-Nyong Virus Specificity for Infection of Aedes and Anopheles Mosquito Vectors

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Mosquito-borne diseases caused by viruses and parasites are responsible for more than 700 million infections each year. Anopheles and Aedes are the two major vectors for, respectively, malaria and arboviruses.

Vector-stability of multiple vector refinable vectors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Classical Analysis, 2017
Summary: The stability is an expected property for refinable vectors, which is widely considered in the study of refinement equations. There are two types of stability for refinable vectors. One is the ordinary-stability, the other is the vector-stability.

The Effect of Secondary Metabolites Produced by Serratia marcescens on Aedes aegypti and Its Microbiota

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Serratia marcescens is a bacterial species widely found in the environment, which very efficiently colonizes mosquitoes. In this study, we isolated a red-pigmented S. marcescens strain from our mosquito colony (called S. marcescens VA).

Microbial Pre-exposure and Vectorial Competence of Anopheles Mosquitoes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Anopheles female mosquitoes can transmit Plasmodium, the malaria parasite. During their aquatic life, wild Anopheles mosquito larvae are exposed to a huge diversity of microbes present in their breeding sites.

Genome-wide transcriptome profiling and spatial expression analyses identify signals and switches of development in tapeworms

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2018
Background Tapeworms are agents of neglected tropical diseases responsible for significant health problems and economic loss. They also exhibit adaptations to a parasitic lifestyle that confound comparisons of their development with other animals ...

Membrane Chromatography-Based Downstream Processing for Cell-Culture Produced Influenza Vaccines

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
New influenza strains are constantly emerging, causing seasonal epidemics and raising concerns to the risk of a new global pandemic. Since vaccination is an effective method to prevent the spread of the disease and reduce its severity, the development of

Sialotranscriptomics of Rhipicephalus zambeziensis reveals intricate expression profiles of secretory proteins and suggests tight temporal transcriptional regulation during blood-feeding

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Ticks secrete a diverse mixture of secretory proteins into the host to evade its immune response and facilitate blood-feeding, making secretory proteins attractive targets for the production of recombinant anti-tick vaccines.
