Aesthetic preference for art emerges from a weighted integration over hierarchically structured visual features in the brain [PDF]

, 2020
It is an open question whether preferences for visual art can be lawfully predicted from the basic constituent elements of a visual image. Moreover, little is known about how such preferences are actually constructed in the brain.

Enhanced stability of a chimeric hepatitis B core antigen virus-like-particle (HBcAg-VLP) by a C-terminal linker-hexahistidine-peptide

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2018
BackgroundVirus-like-particles (VLPs) are attractive nanoparticulate scaffolds for broad applications in material/biological sciences and medicine. Prior their functionalization, specific adaptations have to be carried out.

Autonomous Navigation in Large‐Scale Underground Environments Based on a Purely Topological Understanding of Tunnel Networks

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work presents a non‐geometrical navigation approach based on a purely topological understanding of underground environments. By conceptualizing subterranean scenarios as a set of tunnels that intersect with each other, and taking a navigation approach based on topological instructions, we simplify the navigation problem to the sequential ...

Protein nanoparticles assemble in plants, display antigenic viral peptides, and produce an epitope‐specific immune response

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Current methods to control porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, a disease affecting pigs, are insufficient and a safer, more effective vaccine is needed. This study describes the design and plant production of a self‐assembling protein nanoparticle vaccine candidate against this disease.

Nanoparticle‐Based Tolerogenic Vaccines: Next‐Generation Strategies for Autoimmune and Allergic Disease Therapies

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 6, 2 February 2026.
Nanoparticle‐based tolerogenic vaccines harness controlled antigen delivery and immunomodulation to establish tolerance in autoimmunity and allergy. This review outlines how nanoparticle design (size, shape, composition, administration route) influences biodistribution and immune‐cell targeting.

Significance of VLPs in Vlp-circRNA vaccines: a vaccine candidate or delivery vehicle?

RNA Biology
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of single-stranded RNAs with a closed loop lacking 5' and 3' ends. These circRNAs are translatable and, therefore, have a potential in developing vaccine. CircRNA vaccines have been shown to be more stable, safe, easy to manufacture and scale-up production when compared to mRNA vaccines. However, these vaccines also

Multi-target chimaeric VLP as a therapeutic vaccine in a model of colorectal cancer

Journal of Immunotherapy for Cancer, 2017
BackgroundColorectal cancer is responsible for almost 700,000 deaths annually worldwide. Therapeutic vaccination is a promising alternative to conventional treatment for colorectal cancer, using vaccines to induce targeted immune responses against tumour-

Vessel arrival planning with full information

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Planning efficiency and timely arrival of vessels is crucial to smooth operations of maritime transport networks, ensuring optimal utilization of resources and minimizing operational costs. Coordination between vessel operators and terminals has the potential to reduce costs, fuel consumption, and waiting time.

Quantification and a Molecular Dynamics Study of Viral Membrane Lipids through Plasmon Coupling Microscopy [PDF]

, 2015
Phosphatidylserine (PS) and monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (G_M1) are examples of two host-derived lipids in the membrane of enveloped virus particles that are known to contribute to virus attachment, uptake, and ultimately dissemination.
