Surface‐Capped Protein Nanoparticles for Nonviral Gene Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Developing simple, safe, and efficient nonviral delivery systems remains a significant challenge in bioengineering. Nanoparticles offer promising gene delivery capabilities with reduced toxicity; however, long‐standing challenges related to effective plasmid encapsulation and delivery exist.

Rethinking Extracellular Vesicle Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles enable cell communication beyond intracellular cargo delivery. This perspective highlights two plausible surface‐based signaling modes: “bind‐and‐stay” and “bind‐and‐leave.” Transient binding to multiple cells challenges the one‐vesicle‐one‐cell model.

Viral evolution: beyond drift and shift.

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2015
Technological advances have allowed aspects of viral evolution to be explored at unprecedented scales. As a consequence, new quantitative approaches are needed to investigate features of viral evolution that fall outside traditional areas of study, such as antigenic evolution.

Cooperation: another mechanism of viral evolution.

Trends in Microbiology, 2013
RNA viruses evolve rapidly under selection pressure as a result of the high error rates of viral RNA polymerase. 'Cooperation' between wild type and variant measles virus (MV) genomes through the heterooligomer formation of a viral protein has recently been shown to act as a mechanism of viral evolution.

Evolution of a viral nucleocapid

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2021
This study reports the evolution of a bacterial enzyme that does not have an inherent RNA-binding activity into a virus-like nucleocapsid protein that efficiently packages and encapsidates copies of its own mRNA.

Intrahost viral evolution during chronic sapovirus infections.

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2019
BACKGROUND Sapovirus is a common cause of self-limiting diarrhea. In immunocompromised individuals chronic infections occur, but are incompletely investigated.

Immune response and within-host viral evolution: Immune response can accelerate evolution.

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2018
The objectives of this paper are to explore the impact of immune response on within-host viral evolution towards higher Darwinian fitness and, in particular, to verify a hypothesis that immune response, which is insufficient to annihilate a viral ...
