Design and preclinical evaluation of a universal SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine.

Because of the rapid mutations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), an effective vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 variants is needed to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). T cells, in addition to neutralizing antibodies, are an important component of naturally acquired protective immunity, and a number of studies have shown that T cells induced by natural infection or vaccination contribute significantly to protection against several viral infections including SARS-CoV-2. However, it has never been tested whether a T cell-inducing vaccine can provide significant protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection in the absence of preexisting antibodies.

SV40 T-antigen uses a DNA shearing mechanism to initiate origin unwinding.

Duplication of DNA genomes requires unwinding of the double-strand (ds) DNA so that each single strand (ss) can be copied by a DNA polymerase. The genomes of eukaryotic cells are unwound by two ring-shaped hexameric helicases that initially encircle dsDNA but transition to ssDNA for function as replicative helicases. How the duplex is initially unwound, and the role of the two helicases in this process, is poorly understood.

Type III cutaneous atypical meningioma of the scalp.

Meningiomas occur rarely in extracranial sites, including the skin, where they may pose a diagnostic challenge because of their histopathologic overlap with several other spindle-cell tumors. Cutaneous meningiomas are divided into type I (congenital), type II (ectopic), and type III (via direct extension) lesions. We present a rare case of atypical meningioma of the skin in a 71-year-old woman who presented with a painful and enlarging lesion on the left central frontal scalp.
