Objectives: The aim of the present study is to characterize the glycoproteins Gn and Gc of hantaviruses and to use these characterized recombinant glycoproteins to establish a viral pseudotype platform. Using the prototypic Hantaan virus (HTNV), we invest

We consider different models of thermoelastic plates in a bounded reference configuration: with Fourier heat conduction or with the Cattaneo model, and with or without inertial terms. Some models exhibit exponential stability, others are not exponential s

A common feature of many random partition models, including those induced from mixtures of discrete random probability measures, is the use of iid parameters to de ne clusters. As a result, it is typically found that some of the clusters are neither well

The problem of evaluating the interaction between atoms in molecular structures is key in bioinformatics, due to its tremendous potential for the prediction of the structure of modified or engineered molecules, accelerating research in many fields as vari

Autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), result from failures in the regulatory mechanisms of adaptive immunity. It is likely that SLE can be conditioned by deficiencies on the process of peripheral tolerance to self-antigens, whic

Introduction: Excitotoxicity, i.e. neuronal death by excessive NMDA receptor activation, neuronal Ca2+ overload and nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, is a prominent mechanism leading to cell death (Sandoval et al. 2011, J Neurochem 118:760). NO leads to protei
