Polymerization of Gag on the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane drives the assembly of Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1).Gag recruits components of the endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) to facilitate membrane fission and virion release.ESCRT assembly is initiated by recruitment of ALIX and TSG101/ESCRT-I, which bind
Abstract Acute myocarditis, characterized by inflammatory myocardial injury, significantly risks heart failure and sudden death.Despite its severity, specific biomarkers are lacking.This study applied metabolomic analysis to urine samples from 21 acute myocarditis patients and 21 controls using UPLC-MS/MS, revealing 728 increased and 820 decreased
T1 relaxation and water mobility generate eloquent MRI tissue contrasts with great diagnostic value in many neuroradiological applications.However, conventional methods do not adequately quantify the microscopic heterogeneity of these important biophysical properties within a voxel, and therefore have limited biological specificity.We describe a ne
A face Military Helicopter shield is a secondary personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers (HCW).Worn with the appropriate face masks/respirators, it provides short term barrier protection against potentially infectious droplet particles.Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused a spike in demand for PPE, leading to a shortage and
