Investigating viral glycosylation pathways for drug and vaccine development by Brun, J

“…Chapter 4 focuses on the site-specific glycosylation occupancy, and N- and O-glycan structures attached to virion derived SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins. This glycan signature was compared to a stabilised prefusion trimeric spike, to a monomeric subunit of spike (S1) and to an antigen of a non-stabilised vaccine candidate, revealing subunit shedding of the S1 glycoprotein for the vaccine candidate. …”

Comparative effects of domain-specific human monoclonal antibodies against LGI1 on neuronal excitability by Sell, J, Rahmati, V, Kempfer, M, Irani, SR, Ritzau-Jost, A, Hallermann, S, Geis, C

“…However, only the LRR-specific mAbs increased the number of action potential firing together with enhanced initial instantaneous frequency and promoted spike-frequency adaptation, which were less pronounced after the EPTP mAb. …”

Deep learning approach to cervical segmentation from routine CT images by Duan, Yiming

“…To address the sequential and location-dependent nature of bone segmen tation information, the dissertation proposes a pre-training model for location information, and combines 2.5D image input and labeled multi-channel coding to semantically segment 3D cervical spine CT images. This method can accu rately extract the information of bone joint location of slices and incorporate it into image features in the form of channels, which can improve the accuracy of multiple bone joint segmentation and classification. …”
