Thymic activation improves the outcome of COVID-19 patients with severe pneumonia. The rs2204985 genetic polymorphism within the TCRA-TCRD locus, which affects thymic output in healthy individuals, was found here to modify SARS-CoV-2-specific

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are cellular innate immune receptors that explore microbial molecules. For instance, TLR4 can sense bacterial lipopolysaccharides, inducing cytokines and antimicrobial peptides against the bacteria. Single-nucleotide

BACKGROUND: The causes for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are diverse and the incidence trends of IMIDs from specific causes are rarely studied. The study aims to investigate the pattern and trend of IMIDs from 1990 to 2019.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a highly pathogenic swine coronavirus causing severe diarrhea and high mortality to piglets. PEDV strain AH2012/12 isolated from a diarrheal piglet has been passaged in vitro for over 102 passages. Viral

We present a method of mapping data from publicly available genomics and publication resources to the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and implement a server to publish linked open data (LOD). As one of the largest and most comprehensive semantic

Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived tissues can be used to model diseases in cell types that are challenging to harvest and study at-scale, such as neutrophils. Neutrophil dysregulation, specifically neutrophil extracellular trap (NET)

Characterization of host genetic factors contributing to COVID-19 severity promises advances on drug discovery to fight the disease. Most genetic analyses to date have identified genome-wide significant associations involving loss-of-function

CONCLUSIONS: Diarrhea followed by nausea/vomiting was among the most common gastrointestinal symptoms affecting younger age groups in our study. Enteric symptoms were more common among vaccinated people rather than among nonvaccinated ones.

Introduction: Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) is a critical molecule responsible for interactions between cells. Previous studies have suggested that ICAM-1 triggers cell-to-cell transmission of HIV-1 or HTLV-1, that SARS-CoV-2 shares

CONCLUSION: Perspectives of patients and their families affected by DVA should be prioritised in general practice service planning, including during periods of transition and change.
