Duration of immune protection of SARS-CoV-2 natural infection against reinfection.
(
Oxford University Press
, 2022 , Article)
The future of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic hinges on virus evolution and duration of immune protection of natural infection against reinfection. We investigated duration of protection afforded by natural infection, the effect ...
Haematococcus pluvialis Microalgae Extract Inhibits Proliferation, Invasion, and Induces Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2022 , Article)
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant cancer in females worldwide. Drug resistance, toxicity, and the failure of current therapies to completely cure BC has challenged conventional medicine. Consequently, ...
E-cadherin/catenin complex modulations in human oral cancer
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2015 , Book chapter)
Oral cancer is a common neoplasm in both male and female worldwide; the incidence and mortality of this cancer have increased over the past decades. Cancer metastasis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in oral ...
Will Host Genetics Affect the Response to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines? Historical Precedents
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Article Review)
Recent progress in genomics and bioinformatics technologies have allowed for the emergence of immunogenomics field. This intersection of immunology and genetics has broadened our understanding of how the immune system ...
Emerging COVID-19 variants and their impact on SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, therapeutics and vaccines
(
Taylor and Francis
, 2022 , Article)
The emergence of novel and evolving variants of SARS-CoV-2 has fostered the need for change in the form of newer and more adaptive diagnostic methods for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 infections. On the other hand, developing ...
Protection against the omicron variant from previous SARS-CoV-2 infection
(
Massachusetts Medical Society
, 2022 , Other)
Natural infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) elicits strong protection against reinfection with the B.1.1.7 (alpha),1,2 B.1.351 (beta),1 and B.1.617.2 (delta)3 variants. However, the ...
Effects of Previous Infection and Vaccination on Symptomatic Omicron Infections.
(
Massachusetts Medical Society
, 2022 , Article)
The protection conferred by natural immunity, vaccination, and both against symptomatic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection with the BA.1 or BA.2 sublineages of the omicron (B.1.1.529) ...
Effects of BA.1/BA.2 subvariant, vaccination, and prior infection on infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 omicron infections.
(
Oxford University Press
, 2022 , Article)
Compared to BA.1, BA.2 was associated with lower RT-qPCR cycle threshold (Ct) value-3.53 fewer cycles (95% CI: 3.46-3.60), signifying higher infectiousness. This may reflect higher viral load and/or longer duration of ...
Epidemiological impact of prioritising SARS-CoV-2 vaccination by antibody status: Mathematical modelling analyses
(
BMJ Publishing Group
, 2021 , Article)
Background Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been developed, but their availability falls far short of global needs. This study aimed to investigate the impact of prioritising available doses on the basis of recipient ...
Detection of antinuclear antibodies targeting intracellular signal transduction, metabolism, apoptotic processes and cell death in critical COVID-19 patients
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Background: The heterogeneity of COVID-19 lies within its diverse symptoms and severity, ranging from mild to lethal. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been shown to be the leading cause of mortality in COVID-19 ...
