Lung interstitial macrophages (IMs) can be polarized towards an alternative activation phenotype in ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthmatic mice. However, the role of alternative activation of lung IMs in Th2 cell responses in the asthmatic murine is still unclear. Here, we leverage an anti-F4/80 treatment which has been shown to selectively deplete IMs…[Read more]

Glycosylation plays important roles in SARS-CoV-2 infection. We describe here a facile chemoenzymatic synthesis of core-fucosylated N-glycopeptides derived from the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein and their binding with glycan-dependent neutralizing antibody S309 and human lectin CLEC4G. The synthetic glycopeptides provide tools for further functional…[Read more]

In February 2020, a man returned to the United States after an 11-day trip to India and died of primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), caused by nasal exposure to the free-living ameba

found in warm water. We identified potential exposures, confirmed…[Read more]

[Conclusion] Our findings may facilitate a better understanding of the changes in muscle activity of the lower limb muscles due to differences in TA and KA.[Purpose] This study examined the effect of motor functioning, cognitive functioning, and activities of daily living on improvements in care need levels of older adults requiring low-level care…[Read more]

The spring ligament complex (SLC) supports the medial longitudinal arch of the foot, particularly in standing. We evaluated posture-related changes in the thickness and length of the three SLC bundles and their histology.

The thickness and length of the supramedial calcaneonavicular ligament (smCNL), medioplantar oblique calcaneonavicular…[Read more]

Approximately 2% to 6% of men undergoing vasectomy will ultimately have it reversed. Cost is a major consideration for patients and providers with regard to vasovasostomy. Opportunities for cost savings for vasectomy reversal lie in the reduction of variable costs, namely operative time and…[Read more]
