Zika virus (ZIKV) has recently caused a worldwide outbreak of infections associated with severe neurological complications, including microcephaly in infants born from infected mothers. ZIKV exhibits high neurotropism and promotes neuroinflammation and neuronal cell death. We have recently demonstrated...

Nat Commun. 2016 Sep 26;7:12978. doi: 10.1038/ncomms12978.

Transition metal dichalcogenides are optically active, layered materials promising for fast optoelectronics and on-chip photonics. We demonstrate electrically driven single-photon emission from localized sites in tungsten diselenide and tungsten disulphide. To achieve this, we fabricate a light-emitting diode structure...

OBJECTIVES: Long-term systemic blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) with either an angiotensin (Ang) II type 1 receptor antagonist or an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor attenuates age-related cardiac remodeling and oxidative damage, and improves myocardial relaxation. However, the role of...
