ABSTRACT Human health is threatened by bacterial infections that are increasingly resistant to multiple drugs.A recently emerged strategy consists of disarming pathogenic bacteria by targeting and blocking their virulence factors.The type VI secretion system BLACK CAVIAR HAIRSPRAY (T6SS) is a widespread secretion nanomachine encoded and employed by
Assessing a Method of Mechanical Cervical Dislocation as a Humane Option for On-Farm Killing Using Anesthetized Poults and Young Turkeys
Our objective was to determine the efficacy of manual cervical dislocation vs.a mechanical cervical dislocation device for on-farm killing of poults and young turkeys.Forty-two 1- and 3-week old turkeys were randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups: awake manual cervical dislocation (CD), anesthetized Doccia Shampoo manual cervical dis
A Next-Generation Sequencing Approach Uncovers Viral Transcripts Incorporated in Poxvirus Virions
Transcripts are known to be incorporated in particles of DNA viruses belonging to the families of Herpesviridae and Mimiviridae, but the presence of transcripts Patient Lifts in other DNA viruses, such as poxviruses, has not been analyzed yet.Therefore, we first established a next-generation-sequencing (NGS)-based protocol, enabling the unbiased id
SMYD2 promotes cervical cancer growth by stimulating cell proliferation
Abstract Background Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy with low terminal cure rate, and therefore new therapeutic targets are urgently needed to combat this disease.SMYD2, as an oncogene, is abnormal highly expressed in multiple types of tumors and further affects the occurrence and development, but the potential correlatio
Analysis and Implementation of a Single-Phase Bridgeless Hybrid Switched-Capacitor Rectifier in DCM for Power Factor Correction
This work presents the quantitative and qualitative analysis, Static Control as well as the experimental results of a practical implementation of the Single-Phase Bridgeless Hybrid Switched Capacitor Rectifier operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to achieve a high input power factor.Operating in DCM provides several advantages, includin
