To investigate the genetic diversity of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in Thailand, 279 ORF5 sequences of PRRSV collected during 2010-2011 from 102 swine herds in five swine-producing areas were analyzed. The co-existence of European (EU) and North American (NA) genotypes was observed in 98 % of herds investigated and was evident at the pig level. Both genotypes have evolved separately with a temporal influence on strain development. Novel introductions influence the genetic diversity of the NA genotype. Although Thai EU and NA isolates develop their own clusters that are separate from those of other countries, there was no geographic influence on strain development within Thailand.

Contemporary Insights into LMNA Cardiomyopathy.

Curr Cardiol Rep

January 2025

Cardiovascular Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.

Purpose Of Review: This review aims to explore how a diagnosis of LMNA-related cardiomyopathy (LMNA-CM) informs clinical management, focusing on the prevention and management of its complications, through practical clinical strategies.

Recent Findings: Longitudinal studies have enhanced our understanding of the natural history of LMNA-CM including its arrhythmic and non-arrhythmic complications. A LMNA specific ventricular arrhythmia risk prediction strategy has been integrated into clinical practice guidelines.

Statoliths function in gravity perception in plants: yes, no, yes!

Planta

January 2025

Department of Biomedical Engineering and Science, Florida Institute of Technology, Melbourne, FL, 32901, USA.

The starch-statolith theory was established science for a century when the existence of gravitropic, starchless mutants questioned its premise. However, detailed kinetic studies support a statolith-based mechanism for graviperception. Gravitropism is the directed growth of plants in response to gravity, and the starch-statolith hypothesis has had a consensus among scientists as the accepted model for gravity perception.

Balanced translocation carriers experience elevated reproductive risks, including pregnancy loss and children with anomalies due to generating chromosomally unbalanced gametes. While understanding the likelihood of producing unbalanced conceptuses is critical for individuals to make reproductive decisions, risk estimates are difficult to obtain as most balanced translocations are unique. To improve reproductive risk estimates, Drs.

Recombination contributes substantially to the genetic diversity of HIV-1. Here we reported a novel HIV-1 recombinant detected from a Chinese labor who had been to Uganda as an immigrant worker using nanopore sequencing. Near full-length genome (NFLG) phylogenetic analysis showed that the novel HIV-1 recombinant HIV-sd1801 stood in a distinct branch between the CRF130_A1B/CRF131_A1B and CRF50_A1D/CRF84_A1D reference sequences.
