Defining the features and structure of neutralizing antibody targeting the silent face of the SARS-CoV-2 spike N-terminal domain.

Research on virus/receptor interactions has uncovered various mechanisms of antibody-mediated neutralization against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, understanding of neutralization by antibodies targeting the silent face, which recognize epitopes on glycan shields, remains limited, and their potential protective efficacy in vivo is not well understood. This study describes a silent face neutralizing antibody, 3711, which targets a non-supersite on the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the spike protein.

Radiomics models to predict bone marrow metastasis of neuroblastoma using CT.

Background: Bone marrow is the leading site for metastasis from neuroblastoma and affects the prognosis of patients with neuroblastoma. However, the accurate diagnosis of bone marrow metastasis is limited by the high spatial and temporal heterogeneity of neuroblastoma. Radiomics analysis has been applied in various cancers to build accurate diagnostic models but has not yet been applied to bone marrow metastasis of neuroblastoma.

Causal relationship between 14 site-specific cancers and venous thromboembolism.

Background: It has been observed that cancer and venous thromboembolism (VTE) are associated, but anticancer therapy may violate the causality. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the causal relationship of various cancers to VTE using Mendelian randomization (MR).

Methods: Three MR methods were used to estimate causal effects: Inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger and weighted median.

variant associated with vitiligo.

The manuscript addresses an important topic: genetic analysis of Vitiligo. Vitiligo is a complicated condition and the genetic factors account for 80% of the risk. Linkage analysis for a four generations Chinese family identified 16p13.

Inhibition of H1N1 by sp. 122 via AKT and p53 signaling pathways.

Influenza viruses cause a severe threat to global health, which can lead to annual epidemics and cause pandemics occasionally. However, the number of anti-influenza therapeutic agents is very limited. Polysaccharides, extracted from sp.

Epidemiological characteristics and clinical manifestations of pediatric patients with COVID-19 in China: A multicenter retrospective study.

Importance: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic poses a considerable challenge for pediatricians.

Objective: This study aimed to identify the epidemiological characteristics and clinical features of pediatric patients with COVID-19 in China.

Methods: This multicenter retrospective study included pediatric patients from 46 hospitals in China, covering 12 provinces and two municipalities.
