Strong immune responses and robust protection following a novel protein in adjuvant tuberculosis vaccine candidate by Korompis, M, De Voss, CJ, Li, S, Richard, A, Almujri, SS, Ateere, A, Frank, G, Lemoine, C, McShane, H, Stylianou, E

“…Heterologous vaccination strategies were also explored by combining intranasal ChAdOx1.PPE15 viral vector, with intramuscular PPE15-LMQ resulting in improved protection compared to individual vaccines. These findings support the progression of this vaccine candidate to the next stages of development.…”

Unraveling microglial spatial organization in the developing human brain with DeepCellMap, a deep learning approach coupled with spatial statistics by Perochon, T, Krsnik, Z, Massimo, M, Ruchiy, Y, Romero, AL, Mohammadi, E, Li, X, Long, KR, Parkkinen, L, Blomgren, K, Lagache, T, Menassa, DA, Holcman, D

“…Additionally, we uncover an association between microglia and blood vessels in fetal brains exposed to maternal SARS-CoV-2. These findings offer insights into whether various microglial phenotypes form networks in the developing brain to occupy space, and in conditions involving haemorrhages, whether microglia respond to, or influence changes in blood vessel integrity. …”

Structural basis for the ligand-dependent activation of heterodimeric AHR-ARNT complex by Diao, X, Shang, Q, Guo, M, Huang, Y, Zhang, M, Chen, X, Liang, Y, Sun, X, Zhou, F, Zhuang, J, Liu, S, Vogel, CFA, Rastinejad, F, Wu, D

“…AHR’s PAS-B domain utilizes eight conserved residues whose dynamic rearrangements account for the ability to bind to ligands through hydrophobic and π-π interactions. Our findings further reveal the structural underpinnings of a ligand-driven activation mechanism, whereby a segment of the AHR protein undergoes a structural transition from chaperone engagement to ARNT heterodimer stabilization, to generate the transcriptionally competent assembly. …”

Tracking people by learning their appearance by Ramanan, D, Forsyth, DA, Zisserman, A

“…This problem is difficult because one needs to determine both the number of people in each frame and estimate their configurations. But, finding people and localizing their limbs is hard because people can move fast and unpredictably, can appear in a variety of poses and clothes, and are often surrounded by limb-like clutter. …”
