The efficacy of Facebook's vaccine misinformation policies and architecture during the COVID-19 pandemic
Sci Adv. 2023 Sep 15;9(37):eadh2132. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.adh2132. Epub 2023 Sep 15.ABSTRACTOnline misinformation promotes distrust in science, undermines public health, and may drive civil unrest. During the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, Facebook-the world's largest social media company-began to remove vaccine misinformation as a matter of policy. We evaluated the efficacy of these policies using a comparative interrupted time-series design. We found that Facebook removed some antivaccine content, but we did not observe decreases in overall engagement with antivaccine content. Provaccine content was also removed, and ...

Achieving COVID-19 zero without lockdown, January 2020 to March 2022: The Taiwan model explained
J Formos Med Assoc. 2023 Sep 13:S0929-6646(23)00345-5. doi: 10.1016/j.jfma.2023.09.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDespite never imposing a lockdown, Taiwan achieved COVID-19 zero, with reporting only 56 local coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases after testing 126,987 individuals in 2020, and further contained a large outbreak rapidly and successfully in 2021. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our infectious disease modeling results indicated that testing and contact tracing alone would fail to contain the pandemic. However, by supplementing this approach with general public surgical mask-wearing, the reproduc...

Adjuvant activities of immunostimulating natural products: Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bge and Coriolus versicolor in BNT162b2 vaccination against COVID-19 infection
In conclusion, combining AM and CV was effective in acting as an oral adjuvant with the mRNA vaccine BNT162b2 to improve the antigen binding activities against SARS-CoV-2 ancestral and variant SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins, probably via trained immunity of macrophages and dendritic cells.PMID:37713617 | DOI:10.1093/jleuko/qiad106

Investigation of the relationship between monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 rs1024611 variant and severity of COVID-19
CONCLUSION: The MCP-1 gene polymorphism had no impact on COVID-19 severity. However, to confirm these results, a large-scale study needs to be conducted.PMID:37713941 | DOI:10.1016/j.cyto.2023.156367

Signaling pathways in macrophages: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targets
MedComm (2020). 2023 Sep 11;4(5):e349. doi: 10.1002/mco2.349. eCollection 2023 Oct.ABSTRACTMacrophages play diverse roles in development, homeostasis, and immunity. Accordingly, the dysfunction of macrophages is involved in the occurrence and progression of various diseases, such as coronavirus disease 2019 and atherosclerosis. The protective or pathogenic effect that macrophages exert in different conditions largely depends on their functional plasticity, which is regulated via signal transduction such as Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription, Wnt and Notch pathways, stimulated by environmental cue...

Nucleic Acid Detection through RNA-Guided Protease Activity in Type III-E CRISPR-Cas Systems
Chembiochem. 2023 Sep 14:e202300401. doi: 10.1002/cbic.202300401. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRNA-guided protease activity was recently discovered in the type III-E CRISPR-Cas systems (Craspase), providing a novel platform for engineering a protein probe instead of the commonly used nucleic acid probe in the nucleic acid detection assays. Here, by adapting a fluorescence readout technique using the affinity- and fluorescent protein dual-tagged Csx30 protein substrate, we established an assay monitoring Csx30 cleavage by target ssRNA-activated Craspase. Four Craspase-based nucleic acid detection systems for genes from sev...
