Unveiling the DHX15-G-patch interplay in retroviral RNA packaging.

We explored how a simple retrovirus, Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (M-PMV) to facilitate its replication process, utilizes DHX15, a cellular RNA helicase, typically engaged in RNA processing. Through advanced genetic engineering techniques, we showed that M-PMV recruits DHX15 by mimicking cellular mechanisms, relocating it from the nucleus to the cytoplasm to aid in viral assembly. This interaction is essential for the correct packaging of the viral genome and critical for its infectivity.

Hypoxia as a potential cause of dyspareunia.

Unlabelled: Dyspareunia is genital pain before, during or after penile-vaginal sexual intercourse. The prevalence of dyspareunia ranges from 8 to 22%. Sexual intercourse concomitant with a pelvic organic lesion is likely to cause pain in most cases.

A Large Adnexal Tumor Caused by Mimicking Malignancy.

usually causes trivial infections in the juvenile population. However, its extragenital presentation in adults is relatively rare. We present the case of a 64-year-old female suffering from poorly controlled diabetes and lower abdominal pain.

and PCR detection in women treated for ectopic pregnancy.

The aim of this study was to determine the presence of (ChT) and (NG) in the genital tract of women with ectopic pregnancy and to compare the positive results with patients' self-reported history of PID. Overall 40 women were eligible for the study. The samples for the ChT and NG Polymerase Chain-reaction (PCR) detection were obtained from the cervix, endometrium and fallopian tube.

Effect of diamond-like carbon doped with chromium on cell differentiation, immune activation and apoptosis.

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a biocompatible material that has many potential biomedical applications, including in orthopaedics. DLC layers doped with Cr at atomic percent (at.%) of 0, 0.

[Use of methotrexate in the ectopic pregnancy and pregnancy of unknown location].

Objective: There are only a few gynaecological departments in the Czech Republic that use medical treatment of the ectopic pregnancy (EP) or persistent pregnancy of unknown location (PUL). We have started using this method in 2008 at our clinic. The aim of this study was to assess the success rate of conservative medical treatment with methotrexate (MTX) in the dose of 1 mg/kg intramuscularly in patients with ectopic pregnancy or persistent pregnancy of unknown location and to compare the results of clinical history, clinical finding and laboratory results in a group of successful and a group of unsuccessful treatment.
