Abstract As a newly emerged infectious disease, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused millions of deaths, resulting in a global health challenge. Currently, several vaccines have been approved with significant benefits against disease transmission.

Available evidence has indicated elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), in COVID-19 patients, with cytokine storm involving excessive cytokine release being observed in some severe cases.

In this paper, we investigate the global dynamics of a system of delay differential equations which describes the interaction of hepatitis B virus (HBV) with both liver and blood cells.

Generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) is a type of myasthenia gravis (MG), a relatively rare neurological disease which would lead to muscle weakness and be life threatening. The pathogenesis of MG is associated with antibodies against acetylcholine receptors, which blocks the neuromuscular transmission. Vyvgart (efgartigimod alfa-fcab) is a recently approved drug for gMG therapy that targets the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). By inhibiting the interaction between FcRn and Immunoglobulin G (IgG), efgartigimod promotes the degradation of IgG and autoantibodies, therefore alleviates the symptoms of

According to WHO data (2023), global DPT immunization coverage has decreased due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Around 25 million children worldwide have not received complete DPT immunization in 2022, which is the highest figure in the last decade. Meanwhile, the 2023 Indonesian Health Profile noted that the coverage of complete DPT-HB-Hib immunization doses (three times) has only reached 85.3%, still below the national target of 95% (WHO, 2023).

These nanoparticles were synthesized using the co-precipitation method at 80 °C for 2 h. They exhibit a single-phase nature and crystallize in a spinel-type structure (space group Fd3¯m). Transmission electron microscopy analysis reveals that the particles are quasi-spherical in shape and approximately 11 nm in size.

Abstract Drug resistance remains a significant obstacle in the successful treatment of cancer, highlighting the critical need to understand how oncogenes and cancer drugs impact cell physiology and resistance development. EML4-ALK is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) fusion oncogene that drives 3-7% of lung cancer. Despite potent ALK inhibitors, EML4-ALK+ cancers frequently develop resistance during therapy. Recently, it was discovered that EML4-ALK and other RTK fusions form cytoplasmic protein condensates, and that condensate formation was required for oncogenic signaling. However, whether on

Estrogen blockade using tamoxifen demonstrates some efficacy in TNBC, suggesting that estrogen promotes brain metastases by modulating the tumor microenvironment in estrogen receptor (ER)-negative tumors.

Abstract The molecular mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry into target cells is a multistep mechanism. The viral envelope glycoproteins (env) binds first to CD4 and subsequently interacts with the V3 loop with a chemokine receptor, CCR5 or CXCR4, triggering the fusion event. Several findings suggest that viruses using CCR5 for entry (R5-tropic HIV-1) is the predominant species transmitted among patients. Importantly, CCR5 expression levels determine disease progression.
