This paper develops an extraction-free qPCR workflow for direct whole-blood testing of viral pathogens, achieving detection limits of 10 copies/uL for DNA and 100 copies/uL for RNA in spiked blood samples.

This study identifies eltrombopag olamine and quercetin as CCHFV entry inhibitors using a BSL-2 pseudotype screening platform validated against authentic CCHFV under BSL-4 conditions.

This paper introduces PERFF-seq, a method to profile rare cell states via scRNA-seq by enriching for specific RNA transcripts, demonstrating its application in immune and brain tissues.

The paper identifies a synonymous mtDNA variant that affects codon-anticodon affinity and shows its impact on cellular fitness in immune cells.
