Mechanisms involved in the transmission of genetic diseases from mother to child
Mitochondria are the organelles that produce most of the chemical energy needed by the cell. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contains 16,569 nucleotides that can be mutated. Some of these mutations can lead to the development of mitochondrial diseases. While nuclear DNA (the well-known double helix, which encodes most of the genome)…

Cell Strain-Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells as an Isogenic Approach To Investigate Age-Related Host Response to Flaviviral Infection
INTRODUCTION Dengue is the most common mosquito-borne viral disease globally (1). This acute disease, which can be life-threatening, is caused by four different dengue viruses (DENVs) (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4). An estimated 390 million people are infected with these DENVs annually (2), and populations throughout the tropics face frequent…

Multiform antimicrobial resistance from a metabolic mutation
Abstract A critical challenge for microbiology and medicine is how to cure infections by bacteria that survive antibiotic treatment by persistence or tolerance. Seeking mechanisms behind such high survival, we developed a forward-genetic method for efficient isolation of high-survival mutants in any culturable bacterial species. We found that perturbation of…
