Subcellular fractionation method to study endosomal trafficking of Kaposis sarcoma-associated herpesvirus
(2016)Background: Virus entry involves multiple steps and is a highly orchestrated process on which successful infection collectively depends. Entry processes are commonly analyzed by monitoring internalized virus particles via ... -
Substrate utilization during submaximal exercise in children with a severely obese parent
(2012-05-09)Background We have reported a reduction in fatty acid oxidation (FAO) at the whole-body level and in skeletal muscle in severely obese (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2) individuals; this defect is retained in cell culture suggesting an ... -
Subtle alterations of vestibulomotor functioning in conductive hearing loss
(2023-08-29)Introduction: Conductive hearing loss (CHL) attenuates the ability to transmit air conducted sounds to the ear. In humans, severe hearing loss is often accompanied by alterations to other neural systems, such as the ... -
