Retroviral genome selection and virion assembly remain promising targets for novel therapeutic intervention. Recent studies have demonstrated that the Gag proteins of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) undergo nuclear trafficking, colocalize with nascent genomic viral RNA (gRNA) at transcription sites, may interact with host transcription factors, and display biophysical properties characteristic of biomolecular condensates. In the present work, we utilized a controlled in vitro condensate assay and advanced imaging approaches to investigate the effects of interactions between RSV Gag condensates and viral and nonviral RNAs on condensate abundance and organization.

Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) encompasses a range of life-threatening conditions, including classical dissection, intramural hematoma, and penetrating aortic ulcer. Each of these conditions presents distinct clinical characteristics and carries the potential to progress to rupture. Because AAS can be asymptomatic or present with diverse symptoms, its diagnosis requires clinical evaluation, risk scoring, and biomarkers such as D-dimer (DD), C-reactive protein (CRP), homocysteine, natriuretic peptides (BNP), and imaging modalities like computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and echocardiography.

Mn-doped luminescent materials play a significant role in a variety of fields, including modern lighting, displays, and imaging. Mn exhibits a broad and adjustable emission, hinging on the local environment of the crystal field and the interaction of the 3d electrons. However, it is still a challenge to realize the precise control of the emission of Mn ions due to site-prior occupation in a specific lattice.

Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is the third most common cause of acute cardiovascular disease, which can lead to high morbidity and mortality if left untreated. Anatomical and electrophysiological variations and obesity may complicate timely diagnosis and delay required management. While computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) remains the most accurate diagnostic tool, initial assessments using electrocardiography (ECG) or echocardiography can be helpful in early suspicion.
