Identifying and Characterizing Trans Women in the Swiss HIV Cohort Study as an Epidemiologically Distinct Risk Group

Jacques Fellay

Background As trans women are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic, and are still understudied, we aimed to identify and characterize the trans women in the Swiss HIV Cohort Study (SHCS). Methods A combination of criteria from pre-existing cohor ...

Broad-spectrum non-toxic antiviral nanoparticles with a virucidal inhibition mechanism

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Ahmet Bekdemir, Valeria Cagno, Emma-Rose Janecek, Samuel Thomas Jones

Viral infections kill millions yearly. Available antiviral drugs are virus-specific and active against a limited panel of human pathogens. There are broad-spectrum substances that prevent the first step of virus–cell interaction by mimicking heparan sulfat ...

Statistical physics of vaccination

Marcel Salathé

Historically, infectious diseases caused considerable damage to human societies, and they continue to do so today. To help reduce their impact, mathematical models of disease transmission have been studied to help understand disease dynamics and inform pre ...

Identification of Siglec-1 null individuals infected with HIV-1

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Siglec-1/CD169 is a myeloid-cell surface receptor critical for HIV-1 capture and infection of bystander target cells. To dissect the role of SIGLEC1 in natura, we scan a large population genetic database and identify a loss-of-function variant (Glu88Ter) t ...

In Vivo Activity of the Benzothiazinones PBTZ169 and BTZ043 against Nocardia brasiliensis

Stewart Cole

Background Mycetoma is a neglected, chronic, and deforming infectious disease caused by fungi and actinomycetes. In Mexico, N. brasiliensis is the predominant etiologic agent. Therapeutic alternatives are necessary because the current drug regimens have se ...

Compressed Sensing with Probabilistic Measurements: A Group Testing Solution

Martin Vetterli, Amin Karbasi, Ali Hormati, Mahdi Cheraghchi Bashi Astaneh

Detection of defective members of large populations has been widely studied in the statistics community under the name ``group testing'', a problem which dates back to World War~II when it was suggested for syphilis screening. There the main interest is to ...

Long-term doxycycline-regulated secretion of erythropoietin by encapsulated myoblasts

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Nicole Déglon

We developed an ex vivo gene therapy approach for the regulated delivery of therapeutic proteins based on the implantation of encapsulated, genetically engineered C(2)C(12) myoblasts. We investigated doxycycline-based regulation of gene expression to modul ...
