Investigations into endothelial cell permeability and adherens junction disruption induced by Junín virus infection.
… to produce productive infection of endothelial cells in vitro with no visible cytopathic effects which provides a unique opportunity to study the cells while they are infected. Here, we show that direct Junín virus infection of primary human endothelial cells (EC) corresponds to increased …

Bioimpedance spectroscopy of breast cancer cells: A microsystems approach
Bioimpedance presents a versatile, label-free means of monitoring biological cells and their responses to physical, chemical and biological stimuli. Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women in the United States. Although significant progress has been made in diagnosis and …

Repurposing the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) integrase inhibitor raltegravir for the treatment of felid alphaherpesvirus 1 (FHV-1) ocular infection
… of effective models to bridge work in in vitro cell cultures and in vivo. Repurposing currently approved drugs for viral infections is one strategy to more rapidly identify new therapeutics. Furthermore, studying ocular herpesviruses in cats is of particular importance, as this condition is a …
