Functional validation of a modified platelet desialylation test for immune and hereditary thrombocytopenias

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Thrombocytopenia arises from heterogeneous inherited and acquired disorders, and identifying the underlying platelet clearance mechanisms remains challenging. Platelet desialylation, characterised by loss of sialic acid and consequent exposure of terminal β‐galactose residues recognised by the Ashwell–Morell receptor, represents an ...

Age‐Related and Seasonal Variation in Malaria and Other Causes of Fever and Their Association With Clinical Outcomes in Southern Angola: A Hospital‐Based Study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute febrile illnesses in sub‐Saharan Africa are often attributed to malaria, yet many patients test negative for malaria parasites. The aetiology of nonmalarial fevers remains understudied. Here, we examine likely causes of febrile illnesses and their association with poor clinical outcomes in Angola.

Ultrastructure analysis of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV)

Archives of Virology, 2019
In this study, two aspects of the ultrastructure of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) were identified: (i) The virus nucleocapsids were disassembled, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image analysis confirmed that the nucleocapsids were composed of stacked ring segments rather than the usual helix system, with each ring segment consisting of ...

Genetic variation among isolates of White spot syndrome virus

Archives of Virology, 2004
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), member of a new virus family called Nimaviridae, is a major scourge in worldwide shrimp cultivation. Geographical isolates of WSSV identified so far are very similar in morphology and proteome, and show little difference in restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) pattern.

The effect of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) envelope protein VP28 on innate immunity and resistance to white spot syndrome virus in Cherax quadricarinatus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2023
VP28 is the most abundant membrane protein of WSSV, and the recombinant protein VP28 (VP26 or VP24) was constructed for the immune protection experiment in this study. Crayfish were immunized by intramuscular injection of recombinant protein V28 (VP26 or VP24) at a dose of 2 μg/g.

Shrimp MyD88 responsive to bacteria and white spot syndrome virus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2013
The myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) is an important adapter protein which links members of the toll-like receptor (TLR) to the downstream components to activate related signaling pathways. In the present study, a MyD88 homolog (FcMyD88) was cloned from penaeid shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis. The ORF of FcMyD88 consisted of 1434 bp encoding a

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) interaction with crayfish haemocytes

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2006
WSSV particles were detected in separated granular cells (GCs) and semigranular cells (SGCs) by in situ hybridisation from WSSV-infected crayfish and the prevalence of WSSV-infected GCs was 5%, whereas it was 22% in SGCs. This indicates that SGCs are more susceptible to WSSV and that this virus replicated more rapidly in SGCs than in GCs and as a ...
