Despite advances in medicine and antimicrobial research, viral infections continue to pose a major threat to human health. While major strides have been made in generating vaccines and small molecules to combat emerging pathogens, new modalities of treatment are warranted in diseases where there is a lack of treatment options, or where treatment cannot fully eradicate pathogens, as in HIV infection. Cellular therapies, some of which are FDA approved for treating cancer, take advantage of our developing understanding of the immune system, and harness this knowledge to enhance, or direct, immune responses toward infectious agents.

In modern agriculture, the proliferation of weeds in cotton fields poses a significant threat to the healthy growth and yield of crops. Therefore, efficient detection and control of cotton field weeds are of paramount importance. In recent years, deep learning models have shown great potential in the detection of cotton field weeds, achieving high-precision weed recognition.

The anomalous expression of microRNA poses a serious threat to human life and health safety, and serves as an important biomarker for cancer detection. In this study, a novel magnetic-assisted DNA logic gate nanomachine triggered by miRNA-21 and miRNA-155 was designed based on the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR/Cas12a activated by a split DNA activator, using only a single crRNA and signal probe, which simplified the detection procedure and complex nucleic acid amplification. The presence of target molecules, miRNA-21 and miRNA-155, can stimulate the DNA walker machine assembled on magnetic beads, which releases activator under the action of DNAzyme.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection causes reproductive failure and respiratory distress and is a serious threat to the swine industry, given its continuous and rapid emergence. The knowledge of viral-host interaction could facilitate anti-PRRSV drug development. HnRNP A1 is an abundantly expressed protein which associates with RNA metabolic processes and plays multifarious roles during the reproduction cycle of multiple viruses.
