AI Article Synopsis

  • Three different avian adenoviral strains use the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) for binding, but they have different affinities and attachment modes.
  • A crystal structure of the FAdV-4 fiber knob was determined, revealing its interaction with CAR.
  • The study found that while all three adenoviruses primarily target CAR domain 1, the CELO strains show weak interaction with CAR domain 2, which helps understand how these viruses invade host cells.

Article Abstract

According to previous studies, three representative avian adenoviral strains utilize coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) as a receptor and seem to exhibit diverse binding affinities and modes. Thus, further revealing the exact molecular mechanism underlying the interaction between different FAdVs and the attachment receptor CAR is necessary. In this study, we successfully solved the crystal structure of the FAdV-4 fiber1 knob at 1.6 Å resolution. The interaction between the fibre knob and different domains of CAR was verified by confocal microscopy, coimmunoprecipitation and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis. The fibre knobs of the three representative fowl adenoviruses specifically recognized CAR domain 1 (D1), but the recognition of CAR domain 2 (D2) by chicken embryo lethal orphan (CELO) strains was weak. These results provide insights into the differences in adenovirus‒host cell interactions and have important implications for the exploration of viral invasion mechanisms.

Comparison of whole genome sequencing performance from fish swabs and fin clips.

BMC Res Notes

Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change, Museum Koenig Bonn, Centre for Molecular Biodiversity Research, Bonn, Germany.

Objective: Fin clipping is the standard DNA sampling technique for whole genome sequencing (WGS) of small fish. The collection of fin clips requires anaesthesia or even euthanisation of the individual. Swabbing may be a less invasive, non-lethal alternative to fin-clipping.

Mapping the landscape of Hospital at home (HaH) care: a validated taxonomy for HaH care model classification.

BMC Health Serv Res

January 2025

Institute Patient-Centered Digital Health, Bern University of Applied Sciences, Quellgasse 21, Biel, 2502, Switzerland.

Background: Hospital at home (HaH) care models have gained significant attention due to their potential to reduce healthcare costs, improve patient satisfaction, and lower readmission rates. However, the lack of a standardized classification system has hindered systematic evaluation and comparison of these models. Taxonomies serve as classification systems that simplify complexity and enhance understanding within a specific domain.

Clinical and imaging features of co-existent pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer: a population-based matching study in China.

BMC Cancer

January 2025

Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Cheeloo College of Medicine, Shandong University, Jinan, 250012, P.R. China.

Background: Co-existent pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer (PTB-LC) represent a unique disease entity often characterized by missed or delayed diagnosis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and radiological features of patients diagnosed with PTB-LC.

Methods: Patients diagnosed with active PTB-LC (APTB-LC), inactive PTB-LC (IAPTB), and LC alone without PTB between 2010 and 2022 at our institute were retrospectively collected and 1:1:1 matched based on gender, age, and time of admission.

Massively parallel characterization of transcriptional regulatory elements.

Nature

January 2025

Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA.

The human genome contains millions of candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) with cell-type-specific activities that shape both health and many disease states. However, we lack a functional understanding of the sequence features that control the activity and cell-type-specific features of these cCREs. Here we used lentivirus-based massively parallel reporter assays (lentiMPRAs) to test the regulatory activity of more than 680,000 sequences, representing an extensive set of annotated cCREs among three cell types (HepG2, K562 and WTC11), and found that 41.

Social withdrawal is a widespread phenomenon among adolescents, presenting significant challenges in understanding its aetiology and dynamics. This study, drawing on data from two cross-sectional surveys conducted in 2019 and 2022 on students in public upper secondary schools, investigates the trend of self-isolation among Italian adolescents before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The two nationally representative samples comprise 3273 and 4288 participants, respectively, with 46.
