Cadherin Related Family Member 3 (CDHR3) is the identified and required cellular receptor for all virus isolates in the rhinovirus-C species (RV-C). Cryo-EM determinations recently resolved the atomic structure of RV-C15a, and subsequently, a complex...
The retinal dystrophy phenotype associated with CDHR1 retinopathy is clinically heterogenous. In this study, we describe the clinical and molecular findings of a retinal dystrophy cohort (10 patients) attributed to autosomal recessive CDHR1 and repor...
Aim: To report on the clinical and genetic spectrum of retinopathy associated with CDHR1 variants in a Hungarian cohort. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a single tertiary care referral center. The study enrolled nine patients h...
Background: Retinal dystrophies related to damaging variants in the cadherin-related family member 1 (CDHR1) gene are rare and phenotypically heterogeneous. Here, we report a longitudinal (three-year) structure–function evaluation of a patient with a...
Background: Cone–rod dystrophies (CRDs) are a heterogeneous group of inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) characterized by cone photoreceptor loss, that is followed by subsequent rod photoreceptor impairment. Case presentation: A 49-year-old man c...
Rhinovirus C (RV-C) infects airway epithelial cells and is an important cause of acute respiratory disease in humans. To interrogate the mechanisms of RV-C-mediated disease, animal models are essential. Towards this, RV-C infection was recently repor...
Compared to purely serial robots or cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs), cable-driven hybrid robots (CDHRs) combine the advantages of both, addressing their limitations and enabling the execution of complex tasks. The series-parallel coupling struct...
A control method for a cable-driven robot in a teleoperation system is proposed using the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation technique. The main components of the teleoperated robotic system are a haptic device, also called a delta robot, and a ca...
Inherited macular dystrophies (iMDs) are a group of genetic disorders, which affect the central region of the retina. To investigate the genetic basis of iMDs, we used single-molecule Molecular Inversion Probes to sequence 105 maculopathy-associated...
Background: Rhinovirus C (RV-C) is one of three species of rhinoviruses (RVs), which cause the common cold, preschool wheezing illnesses and exacerbations of asthma. RV-C types are more virulent, especially in children, but progress in developing tre...
Epigenetic dysregulation is hypothesized to play a role in the observed association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colon tumor development. In the present work, DNA methylome, hydroxymethylome, and transcriptome analyses were conducted...
Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are often associated with variable clinical expressivity (VE) and incomplete penetrance (IP). Underlying mechanisms may include environmental, epigenetic, and genetic factors. Cis-acting expression quantitative trait...
The Sirtuin (SIRT1-7) family comprises seven evolutionary-conserved enzymes that couple cellular NAD availability with health, nutrition and welfare status in vertebrates. This study re-annotated the sirt3/5 branch in the gilthead sea bream, revealin...
Background and objectives: Proteins have an integral role in almost all biological processes and may be influenced by environmental factors, such as diet. We aimed to assess differences in circulating proteins between people of different habitual die...
Rhinoviruses (RVs) are major causes of the common cold, but they can also trigger exacerbations of asthma. More than 160 different RV strains exist and can be classified into three genetic species (RV-A, RV-B and RV-C) which bind to different recepto...
Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a common cause of blindness or severe visual impairment in children and may occur with or without systemic associations. The aim of the present study is to describe the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of IRD...
