Metagenomic next-generation sequencing assists in the diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis in non-endemic areas of China by Rui Zhao, Guilun He, Lin Xiang, Melinda Ji, Rongheng He, Xudong Wei

“…Direct identification of infected tissues is currently the primary method of diagnosis; however, the low sensitivity and inconvenience of microscopic examination in detecting amastigotes, parasitic manifestations of Leishmania, leads to the possibility of misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, and underdiagnosis.MethodsWith the development of metagenomic nextgeneration sequencing (mNGS) technology for pathogen identification, it is possible to detect specific nucleic acid sequences characteristic of Leishmania parasites, which opens new avenues for the more accurate diagnosis of leishmaniasis. …”

Bioprinting of bespoke islet-specific niches to promote maturation of stem cell-derived islets by Myungji Kim, Seungyeon Cho, Dong Gyu Hwang, In Kyong Shim, Song Cheol Kim, Jiwon Jang, Jinah Jang

“…However, stem cell (SC)-derived islets generated in vitro often lack the three-dimensional extracellular microenvironment and peri-vasculature, which leads to the immaturity of SC-derived islets, reducing their ability to detect glucose fluctuations and insulin release. Here, we bioengineer the in vivo-like pancreatic niches by optimizing the combination of pancreatic tissue-specific extracellular matrix and basement membrane proteins and utilizing bioprinting-based geometrical guidance to recreate the spatial pattern of islet peripheries. …”
