HIV is produced in lymphoid tissues (LT) and stored on the follicular dendritic cell network in LT. When antiretroviral therapy is started, plasma viremia decays in 2 phases; the first within days of starting therapy and the second over weeks.
The spiking activity of single neurons can be well described by a nonlinear integrate-and-fire model that includes somatic adaptation. When exposed to fluctuating inputs sparsely coupled populations of these model neurons exhibit stochastic collective dynamics that can be effectively characterized
Galectins are involved in the regulation of divergent physiological and pathological processes and are increasingly recognized to play important roles in a number of diseases. However, a simple and effective way in assessing galectin-ligand interactions is lacking. Our examination of

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major risk factor for prolonged humoral immunodeficiency and vaccine unresponsiveness after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, the underlying mechanisms for this immunodeficiency are poorly understood. In this article, we describe previously overlooked impacts

mRNA vaccines are rapidly emerging as a powerful platform for infectious diseases because they are well tolerated, immunogenic, and scalable and are built on precise but adaptable antigen design. We show that two immunizations of modified non-replicating mRNA encoding influenza
O-Linked glycoproteins are usually large proteins with a molecular mass of >200 kDa. Glycosylation generally occurs in high-density clusters and may represent as much as 50-80% of the overall mass.
