This study identifies ephrin B1 as a host factor mediating dengue virus NS1-induced endothelial barrier dysfunction and shows EFNB1-Fc fusion proteins can block this effect.

This study identifies RUS1 and RUS2 as regulators of PLP homeostasis in Arabidopsis, interacting with aminotransferases to control vitamin B6 levels.

This study optimizes whole-genome sequencing of Plasmodium falciparum from low-density dried blood spots by evaluating DNA extraction, digestion, and amplification methods.

The paper develops a method to sequence microhaplotypes from Plasmodium falciparum heterozygomes, achieving high coverage, specificity, and sensitivity for detecting polyclonal infections.
