“…In HF with AF, a S-shaped (sigmoid) dependence (β = 0.507 ± 0.092) was found of the risk of RH on the severity of heart rate changes against the background of β-AB treatment. At the same time, the risk of RH in HF patients with AF increases upon reaching the optimal distribution point for ∆HR > 22.00 min–1 (sensitivity of 98.12 %, specificity of 87.23 %, p < 0.0001). …”

A single residue switch mediates the broad neutralization of Rotaviruses by Yang Huang, Feibo Song, Yuanjun Zeng, Hui Sun, Roufang Sheng, Xuechun Wang, Liqin Liu, Guoxing Luo, Yanan Jiang, Yaling Chen, Mengxuan Zhang, Shiyin Zhang, Ying Gu, Hai Yu, Shaowei Li, Tingdong Li, Qingbing Zheng, Shengxiang Ge, Jun Zhang, Ningshao Xia

“…Here, focusing on the pivotal viral protein VP4 of rotavirus (RV), we identify a potent bNAb, 7H13, exhibiting broad-spectrum neutralization across diverse RV genotypes and demonstrating strong prevention of virus infection in female mice. A combination of time-resolved cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and in situ cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) analysis reveals a counterintuitive dynamic process of virus inactivation, in which 7H13 asymmetrically binds to a conserved epitope in the capsid-proximal aspect of VP4, triggers a conformational switch in a critical residue—F418—thereby disrupts the meta-stable conformation of VP4 essential for normal viral infection. …”
