Published: May 2010

In this paper, we proposed an efficient immunization-"high-risk immunization". The standard SIRS model was modified, respectively, on WS small-world network and BA scale-free network. Based on our new SIRS model, the density of infected individuals was analyzed from a theoretical point of view, and computer simulation was implemented on different networks. The results indicate that the high-risk immunization is effective, and it is economic and feasible in practice.

Discovering the climate dependent disease transmission mechanism through learning-explaining framework.

J Theor Biol

There are evidence showing that meteorological factors, such as temperature and humidity, have critical effects on transmission of some infectious diseases, while quantifying the influence is challenging. In this study we develop a learning-explaining framework to discover the particular dependence of transmission mechanisms on meteorological factors based on multiple source data. The incidence rate based on the epidemic data and epidemic model is theoretically identified, and meanwhile the practical discovery of particular formula is feasible through deep neural networks (DNN), symbolic regression (SR) and sparse identification of nonlinear dynamics (SINDy).

Ovarian sex cord-stromal cell tumors and the risk of sex hormone-sensitive cancers.

Background: Sex cord-stromal cell tumors (SCST) are rare tumors of the ovary. Some of the SCSTs secrete hormone originating from the sex or stromal cell of the ovaries. Previous studies have indicated an increased risk of breast and endometrial cancers.

Background: MiR-519d-3p, also called specific placenta biomarkers, is a member of the Chromosome 19 miRNA Cluster (C19MC) with the highest concentrations of miRNAs in human placenta and maternal serum. These miRNAs are secreted by fetal trophoblast cells within extracellular vesicles (EVs) and interact with the mother's immune cells, which has been proposed to be crucial for immunological tolerance at the placental-maternal interface. A key mechanism in preeclampsia, a multifactorial, multipath hypertensive pregnancy illness, is an immunological imbalance between the mother and the fetus.

Ticam2 ablation facilitates monocyte exhaustion recovery after sepsis.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Biological Sciences, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA, 24061-0910, USA.

Sepsis is a leading cause of death worldwide, with most patient mortality stemming from lingering immunosuppression in sepsis survivors. This is due in part to immune dysfunction resulting from monocyte exhaustion, a phenotype of reduced antigen presentation, altered CD14/CD16 inflammatory subtypes, and disrupted cytokine production. Whereas previous research demonstrated improved sepsis survival in Ticam2 mice, the contribution of TICAM2 to long-term exhaustion memory remained unknown.
