Prolonged infection and possible evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in patients living with uncontrolled HIV-1 infection highlight the importance of an effective vaccination regimen, yet the immunogenicity of COVID-19 vaccines and predictive immune biomarkers have not been well investigated. Herein, we report that the magnitude and persistence of antibody and cell-mediated immunity (CMI) elicited by an Ad5-vectored COVID-19 vaccine are impaired in SIV-infected macaques with high viral loads (> 105 genome copies per ml plasma, SIVhi) but...

We theoretically and experimentally study the optical trapping of two different microparticles by a double-tapered optical fiber probe(DOFP) which is fabricated by the interfacial etching method. A SiO₂ microsphere and a yeast, or two SiO₂ microspheres with different diameters, are trapped. We calculate and measure the trapping forces on the two microparticles, discuss the impacts of the geometrical size and refractive index on the trapping forces. Both the theoretical calculation and experimental measurements indicate that...

The aim of the study was to systematically explore the relationships between various adipokines and risks of endometrial atypical hyperplasia (EAH), type I endometrial cancer (EC), and type II EC. We enrolled 219 patients in this study, including 39 EAH, 87 type I EC, 38 type II EC and 55 control individuals. We subsequently explored the association of adipokine levels and the leptin-to-adiponectin (L/A) ratio with EAH, type I EC, and type II EC. The...

We built a comprehensive dataset of the arboviruses and arthropod-specific viruses by curating worldwide available data from Arbovirus Catalog, Section VIII-F of the Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories 6th edition, Virus Metadata Resource of International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, and GenBank. This dataset includes a complete information on viral taxonomy, biological characteristics, vectors and vertebrate hosts, distribution, recommended biosafety levels, genome segment, and nucleotide/amino acid sequences, which will facilitate research by scientists/researchers of...

HLX02, the first China-manufactured trastuzumab biosimilar, is approved in Europe (EU) and China. This study evaluated bioequivalence between HLX02 and US-approved trastuzumab (US-trastuzumab). In this double-blind, parallel-group, Phase I study, healthy Chinese men were randomized (1:1:1) to receive a single 6 mg/kg dose of HLX02, reference US-trastuzumab, or reference EU-approved trastuzumab (EU-trastuzumab). Equivalence in PK profiles was demonstrated if the 90% confidence intervals (CIs) for the geometric mean ratio (GMR) for the difference between the...

In present, there was no detailed report on the formulation optimization and quality evaluation of aprepitant (APT) injectable lipid emulsion (APT-IE). The aim of the present investigation was to prepare and evaluate its properties of APT-IE loaded with an APT phospholipid complex (APT-PC) in vitro and in vivo. APT-PC was obtained by solvent evaporation with APT and phospholipids, then analyzed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Lipid emulsions are a...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect and underlying mechanism of endonuclease G (ENDOG) on preeclampsia (PE). Differentially expressed genes in four Gene Expression Omnibus datasets (GSE147776, GSE96984, GSE102897, and GSE65271) were identified using a Venn diagram. Normal and PE placental tissues were collected from normal and PE parturients. The expression of ENDOG in tissues was tested using western blotting, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and immunohistochemistry. Cell viability, proliferation, invasion, and migration were...

Ophiopogonis Radix is normally used as a traditional medicine and healthy food in China. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC), total saponin content analysis, high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) fingerprinting, ultra-high-performance liquid chromatographic (UHPLC) tandem mass (MS) spectra and multivariate statistical analyses were used to analyze differences in quality of Ophiopogonis Radix from three main producing areas in China. The TLC spots of samples obtained from Zhejiang were clearer and darker than samples from Sichuan and Shandong. Additionally, HPLC...

Flexible photodetector is viewed as a research hotspot for numerous advanced optoelectronic applications. Recent progress has manifested that lead-free layered organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) are highly attractive for engineering flexible photodetector due to the effective overlapping of several unique properties including efficient optoelectronic characteristics, exceptional structural flexibility, and no Pb toxicity to human and environment. However, the narrow spectral response of most flexible photodetectors with lead-free perovskites is still a big challenge to practical applications....

High-strength bolts have been widely used in steel bolted connections, and fire-induced high temperatures will affect its basic mechanical properties and fracture behavior, leading to failure of the connection and even collapse of the overall structure. Tensile experiments are conducted on Grade 10.9 high-strength bolts to investigate the effect of stress triaxiality and heating history on their mechanical and fracture properties in the whole process of fire. The true stress-strain curves are obtained to determine...

Fringe skeletons extraction method maybe the most straightforward method for electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) phase extraction. Due to the ESPI fringe patterns have the characteristics of high noise, low contrast and different fringe shapes, it is very difficult to extract skeletons from ESPI fringe patterns with high accuracy. To deal with this problem, we propose a skeletons extraction method based on deep learning, called channel transformer U-Net, for directly extracting skeletons from the noisy...

Refractive index simulation of ASM.

In recent years, the concept of bound states in the continuum (BICs) in optics has become a research hotspot and has attracted the attention of many scholars. It provides an important physical mechanism for the generation of high-quality-factor optical resonance in high-refractive-index dielectric nanoparticles and all dielectric metasurfaces. In this paper, two metasurfaces with the same structure of different materials are proposed. The resonant frequencies of the two structures are consistent, and the error is...

The characterization and manipulation of the polarization states at single photon level are of great importance in research fields such as quantum information processing and quantum key distribution, where the photons are normally delivered using single mode optical fibers. To date, the demonstrated polarimetry measurement techniques based on a superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD) require the SNSPD to be either highly sensitive or highly insensitive to the photon’s polarization state, therefore placing an unavoidable...
