Myelin Dynamics Throughout Life: An Ever-Changing Landscape?

The ever-changing landscape of rotavirus serotypes.

Rotavirus is a double-stranded RNA virus that is characterized by substantial genetic diversity. The various serotypes of rotavirus have been determined by the presence of neutralizing epitopes on the outer capsid of the protein shell. At present, 5 rotavirus serotypes (G1, G2, G3, G4, G9) are the predominant circulating strains, accounting for approximately 95% of strains worldwide, although t...

Changing Landscape in Translation

Translating and translation are transformed with Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Within three decades, a new work environment is shaking up the translator’s world. New types of translators are emerging. The balance between supply and demand is changing. However, we need adequate tools and methods to investigate the new hierarchy which has become established between translators, ...

Insulin Delivery: An Ever Changing Frontier

Insulin transport across vascular endothelial cells is the rate limiting step in its time action profile. Glucose uptake in response to insulin is estimated through different techniques and is influenced by insulin sensitivity of the tissue. Glucose clamp technique and minimal model imply an incremental increase in the levels of insulin in the ISF compartment evidenced by increase in glucose up...

Responding to ever-changing epidemiological dynamics of Ebola virus disease

With the incidence and mortality rates of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone now at zero and reports of the largest and most complex EVD outbreak in history no longer on the front pages of newspapers worldwide, the urgency of that crisis seems to have subsided. During this lull after the storm and before the next one, the international community needs to engage in a '...
