IntroductionThe clinical incidence of antimicrobial-resistant fungal infections has dramatically increased in recent years.Certain fungal pathogens colonize various body cavities, leading to life-threatening bloodstream infections.However, the identification and characterization of fungal isolates in laboratories remain a significant diagnostic cha
Recent progress on the role and molecular mechanism of chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter-transcription factor II in cancer
Chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter-transcription factor II (COUP-TFII) is an orphan receptor that regulates the expression of genes involved in development and homeostasis.COUP-TFII is also dysregulated in cancer, where it plays important roles Compression Socks in oncogenesis and malignant progression.Recent studies have also investigated altered
A spatial simulation model for the dispersal of the bluetongue vector Culicoides brevitarsis in Australia.
BackgroundThe spread of Bluetongue virus Compression Socks (BTV) among ruminants is caused by movement of infected host animals or by movement of infected Culicoides midges, the vector of BTV.Biologically plausible models of Culicoides dispersal are necessary for predicting the spread of BTV and are important for planning control and eradication st
