A luciferase-based approach for measuring HBGA blockade antibody titers against human norovirus.
van Loben Sels JM, Meredith LW, Sosnovtsev SV, de Graaf M, Koopmans MPG, Lindesmith LC, Baric RS, Green KY, Goodfellow IG
Background: Noroviruses are the most common cause of viral gastroenteritis worldwide, yet there is a deficit in the understanding of protective immunity. Surrogate neutralization assays have been widely used that measure the ability of antibodies to block virus-like particle (VLP) binding to histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs). However, screening large sample sets against multiple antigens using the traditional HBGA blocking assay requires significant investment in terms of time, equipment, and t...

A junctional PACSIN2/EHD4/MICAL-L1 complex coordinates VE-cadherin trafficking for endothelial migration and angiogenesis.
Malinova TS, Angulo-Urarte A, Nüchel J, Tauber M, van der Stoel MM, Janssen V, de Haan A, Groenen AG, Tebbens M, Graupera M, Plomann M, Huveneers S
Angiogenic sprouting relies on collective migration and coordinated rearrangements of endothelial leader and follower cells. VE-cadherin-based adherens junctions have emerged as key cell-cell contacts that transmit forces between cells and trigger signals during collective cell migration in angiogenesis. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms that govern these processes and their functional importance for vascular development still remain unknown. We previously showed that the F-BAR protei...

The precordial R' wave: A novel discriminator between cardiac sarcoidosis and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in patients presenting with ventricular tachycardia.
Hoogendoorn JC, Venlet J, Out YNJ, Man S, Kumar S, Sramko M, Dechering DG, Nakajima I, Siontis KC, Watanabe M, Nakamura Y, Tedrow UB, Bogun F, Eckardt L, Peichl P, Stevenson WG, Zeppenfeld K
Background: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) with right ventricular (RV) involvement can mimic arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). Histopathological differences may result in disease-specific RV activation patterns detectable on the 12-lead electrocardiogram. Dominant subepicardial scar in ARVC leads to delayed activation of areas with reduced voltages, translating into terminal activation delay and occasionally (epsilon) waves with a small amplitude. Conversely, patchy transmural RV...
