HPV16 entry requires dynein for minus-end transport and utilizes kinesin Kif11 for plus-end transport along microtubules during mitosis.

Unlabelled: Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) travel from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the condensed (mitotic) chromosomes during mitosis. Partially uncoated HPV capsids utilize a unique vesicular structure for trafficking and nuclear import, which is directed by the minor capsid protein L2. However, it is still unknown which precise factors facilitate post-TGN HPV trafficking to the nucleus.

The Scholarship of Wellness and Mindfulness to Support First-Year Nursing Students' Response to Stress.

An educational innovation centered on mindfulness was developed to support the well-being of first-year nursing students at a large public university. Students participated in a week-long experiential learning program before their first semester. They then enrolled in a one-credit course that fostered well-being through research and evidence-based mindfulness practices.

septicemia presenting as endogenous endophthalmitis.

Purpose: To present a rarely reported systemic infection with (), transmitted from a horse, and to describe successful treatment when complicated by endogenous endophthalmitis.

Observations: We diagnosed suspected septicemia presenting as loss of vision in the right eye of an otherwise healthy polo player/horse trainer. He received immediate intravenous antibiotics and three vitrectomies with two intravitreal antibiotic injections during the first week, to cure infection and subsequent retinal detachment.

Virology-the path forward.

In the United States (US), biosafety and biosecurity oversight of research on viruses is being reappraised. Safety in virology research is paramount and oversight frameworks should be reviewed periodically. Changes should be made with care, however, to avoid impeding science that is essential for rapidly reducing and responding to pandemic threats as well as addressing more common challenges caused by infectious diseases.

Wellness in Nursing Education to Promote Resilience and Reduce Burnout: Protocol for a Holistic Multidimensional Wellness Intervention and Longitudinal Research Study Design in Nursing Education.

Background: The United States faces a nursing shortage driven by a burnout epidemic among nurses and nursing students. Nursing students are an integral population to fuel the nursing workforce at high risk of burnout and increased rates of perceived stress.

Objective: The aim of this paper is to describe WellNurse, a holistic, interdisciplinary, multidimensional longitudinal research study that examines evidence-based interventions intended to reduce burnout and increase resilience among graduate and undergraduate nursing students.

Experimental Support for Human Papillomavirus Genome Amplification Early after Infectious Delivery.

Even though replication and transcription of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) has been intensively studied, little is known about immediate-early events of the viral life cycle due to the lack of an efficient infection model allowing genetic dissection of viral factors. We employed the recently developed infection model (Bienkowska-Haba M, Luszczek W, Myers JE, Keiffer TR, et al. 2018.

Human Papillomavirus Genome Copy Number Is Maintained by S-Phase Amplification, Genome Loss to the Cytosol during Mitosis, and Degradation in G Phase.

The current model of human papillomavirus (HPV) replication is comprised of three modes of replication. Following infectious delivery, the viral genome is amplified during the establishment phase to reach up to some hundred copies per cell. The HPV genome copy number remains constant during the maintenance stage.

Retinoblastoma Protein Is Required for Epstein-Barr Virus Replication in Differentiated Epithelia.

Coinfection of human papillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been detected in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Although HPV and EBV replicate in differentiated epithelial cells, we previously reported that HPV epithelial immortalization reduces EBV replication within organotypic raft culture and that the HPV16 oncoprotein E7 was sufficient to inhibit EBV replication. A well-established function of HPV E7 is the degradation of the retinoblastoma (Rb) family of pocket proteins (pRb, p107, and p130).

What Drives the Assembly of Plant-associated Protist Microbiomes? Investigating the Effects of Crop Species, Soil Type and Bacterial Microbiomes.

In a field experiment we investigated the influence of the environmental filters soil type (i.e. three contrasting soils) and plant species (i.

Year-Long Microbial Succession on Microplastics in Wastewater: Chaotic Dynamics Outweigh Preferential Growth.

Microplastics are a globally-ubiquitous aquatic pollutant and have been heavily studied over the last decade. Of particular interest are the interactions between microplastics and microorganisms, especially the pursuit to discover a plastic-specific biome, the so-called plastisphere. To follow this up, a year-long microcosm experimental setup was deployed to expose five different microplastic types (and silica beads control) to activated aerobic wastewater in controlled conditions, with microbial communities being measured four times over the course of the year using 16S rDNA (bacterial) and ITS (fungal) amplicon sequencing.

Recent Advances in Our Understanding of the Infectious Entry Pathway of Human Papillomavirus Type 16.

Papillomaviruses are a diverse viral species, but several types such as HPV16 are given special attention due to their contribution towards the pathogenesis of several major cancers. In this review, we will summarize how the knowledge of HPV16 entry has expanded since the last comprehensive HPV16 entry review our lab published in 2017.

Systematic review on effects of bioenergy from edible versus inedible feedstocks on food security.

Achieving food security is a critical challenge of the Anthropocene that may conflict with environmental and societal goals such as increased energy access. The "fuel versus food" debate coupled with climate mitigation efforts has given rise to next-generation biofuels. Findings of this systematic review indicate just over half of the studies (56% of 224 publications) reported a negative impact of bioenergy production on food security.

Hypnosis and Mindfulness Meditation: The Power of Suggestibility.

Recent studies have suggested that mindfulness meditation and hypnosis are similar, but there is a lack of empirical data to support this claim. In this current study, college students were randomly assigned to a hypnosis or mindfulness meditation condition, and they were tested on the Waterloo Stanford Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility, Form C. Results from this study suggest that, while under hypnotic induction and after engaging in mindfulness meditation, participants experienced similar results on the WSGC.

Stickler Syndrome (SS): Laser Prophylaxis for Retinal Detachment (Modified Ora Secunda Cerclage, OSC/SS).

Purpose: To introduce a novel technique of encircling laser prophylaxis (ora secunda cerclage Stickler syndrome, OSC/SS) to prevent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) in Stickler syndrome eyes.

Patients And Methods: After first eye RRD at age 50 and at age 18, respectively, a 53-year-old father and his 22-year-old son with type 2 SS (STL2) gave informed consent and underwent OSC/SS prophylaxis, performed in each fellow eye. A 26-year-old STL2 daughter then suffered first eye retinal detachment and similarly chose fellow eye OSC/SS prophylaxis.

An Exonuclease V-qPCR Assay to Analyze the State of the Human Papillomavirus 16 Genome in Cell Lines and Tissues.

Integration of the human papillomavirus (HPV) genome into host cell chromosomes has been observed in a majority of HPV-positive cervical cancers and a subset of oral HPV-associated cancers. HPV integration also occurs in long-term cell culture. Screening for HPV integration can be labor intensive and yield results that are difficult to interpret.

Rhizosphere microbial communities associated to rose replant disease: links to plant growth and root metabolites.

Growth depression of plants at sites previously used to cultivate the same or closely related species is a typical symptom of rose replant disease (RRD). Currently, limited information is available on the causes and the etiology of RRD compared to apple replant disease (ARD). Thus, this study aimed at analyzing growth characteristics, root morphology, and root metabolites, as well as microbial communities in the rhizosphere of the susceptible rootstock 'Laxa' grown in RRD-affected soil from two sites (Heidgraben and Sangerhausen), either untreated or disinfected by γ-irradiation.
