Abstract
We evaluated the in vitro effects of lyophilization for 2 vesicular stomatitis virus-based vaccines by using 3 stabilizing formulations and demonstrated protective immunity of lyophilized/reconstituted vaccine in guinea pigs. Lyophilization increased stability of the vaccines, but specific vesicular stomatitis virus-based vaccines will each require extensive analysis to optimize stabilizing formulations.

Abstract
Coronaviruses (CoVs), including severe acute respiratory syndrome CoV (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome CoV (MERS-CoV), and SARS-CoV-2, produce double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) that activates antiviral pathways such as PKR and OAS/RNase L. To successfully replicate in hosts, viruses must evade such antiviral pathways. Currently, the mechanism of how SARS-CoV-2 antagonizes dsRNA-activated antiviral pathways is unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) protein, the most abundant viral structural protein, is capable of binding to dsRNA and phosphorylated PKR, inhibiting both the PKR and OAS/RNase L pathways. The N protein of the bat coronavirus (bat-CoV) RaTG13, the closest relative of SARS-CoV-2, has a similar ability to inhibit the human PKR and RNase L antiviral pathways. Via mutagenic analysis, we found that the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the N protein is sufficient for binding dsRNA and inhibiting RNase L activity. Interestingly, while the CTD is also sufficient for binding phosphorylated PKR, the inhibition of PKR antiviral activity requires not only the CTD but also the central linker region (LKR). Thus, our findings demonstrate that the SARS-CoV-2 N protein is capable of antagonizing the two critical antiviral pathways activated by viral dsRNA and that its inhibition of PKR activities requires more than dsRNA binding mediated by the CTD. IMPORTANCE The high transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 is an important viral factor defining the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. To transmit efficiently, SARS-CoV-2 must be capable of disarming the innate immune response of its host efficiently. Here, we describe that the nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 is capable of inhibiting two critical innate antiviral pathways, PKR and OAS/RNase L. Moreover, the counterpart of the closest animal coronavirus relative of SARS-CoV-2, bat-CoV RaTG13, can also inhibit human PKR and OAS/RNase L antiviral activities. Thus, the importance of our discovery for understanding the COVID-19 pandemic is 2-fold. First, the ability of SARS-CoV-2 N to inhibit innate antiviral activity is likely a factor contributing to the transmissibility and pathogenicity of the virus. Second, the bat relative of SARS-CoV-2 has the capacity to inhibit human innate immunity, which thus likely contributed to the establishment of infection in humans. The findings described in this study are valuable for developing novel antivirals and vaccines.

Abstract
The global spread of monkeypox virus has raised concerns over the establishment of novel enzootic reservoirs in expanded geographic regions. We demonstrate that although deer mice are permissive to experimental infection with clade I and II monkeypox viruses, the infection is short-lived and has limited capability for active transmission.

Abstract
Background A well-coordinated adaptive immune response is crucial for limiting COVID-19 disease. Some individuals with immunodeficiency are at a high risk of developing severe COVID-19. Therefore, the development of standardized methods for measuring different arms of the vaccine response in the setting of immunodeficiency is of particular interest. In this study, we compared the vaccine response of individuals living with immunodeficiency with healthy controls in terms of interferon gamma (IFN-γ) production and spike protein-specific antibody level post primary COVID-19 vaccination and booster vaccines. Additionally, the disease severity of those individuals who contracted COVID-19 was assessed. Methods Whole blood was stimulated overnight from 71 participants and 99 healthy controls. Commercially available PepTivator® peptide pool and trimeric spike protein stimulation were used. ELISA was used to analyze IFN-γ levels. The total SARS-CoV-2 spike protein antibody titre was measured using a Roche Elecsys® S total antibody assay. Patient characteristics, COVID-19 infection status and IDDA 2.1 'Kaleidoscope' scores were recorded. Vaccine responses were scored from zero to three. Results 99% of healthy controls, 89% of individuals with IEI and 76% with secondary immunodeficiency (SID) had an IFN-γ level above the validated reference range after peptide mix stimulation following primary vaccination. There was an increase in IFN-γ levels in patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) following the booster vaccine (p = 0.0156). 100% of healthy controls, 70% of individuals living with IEI and 64% of individuals living with SID had detectable spike protein-specific antibody levels following the primary vaccination. 55% of immunodeficiency patients who had mild COVID-19 and 10% with moderate/severe COVID-19 had detectable antibody and IFN-γ levels post vaccine. The mean pre-infection IDDA 2.1 scores were higher in individuals who developed moderate/severe COVID-19 (25.2 compared to 9.41). Conclusions Covid whole-blood IGRA is a highly accurate, straightforward and robust assay and can be easily adapted to measure cellular response to COVID-19. A complete evaluation of the vaccine response may be particularly important for individuals living with immunodeficiency. A clinical immunodeficiency score and a validated vaccine response score may be valuable tools in estimating COVID-19 disease risk and identifying individuals living with immunodeficiency who may benefit from enhanced vaccination schedules.

Abstract
The recent emergence of the monkeypox virus (MPXV) in non-endemic countries has been designated a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by the World Health Organization. There are currently no approved treatments for MPXV infection in the United States or Canada. The antiviral drug tecovirimat (commonly called TPOXX), previously approved for smallpox treatment, is currently being deployed for treatment of MPXV infections where available based on previously accrued data. We tested the efficacy of TPOXX both in vitro and in vivo against a clade 2 Canadian 2022 isolate of MPXV isolated during the current outbreak. TPOXX prevented MPXV replication in vitro with an effective concentration in the nanomolar range. To evaluate TPOXX efficacy in vivo, we first characterized the CAST/EiJ mouse model with the same 2022 Canadian isolate. Unlike previous descriptions of this model, the Canadian isolate was not lethal in CAST/EiJ mice, although it replicated efficiently in the respiratory tract after intranasal infection. Subsequent experiments demonstrated that daily oral TPOXX treatment markedly reduced viral titers in the tissues 1 and 2 weeks after infection. Our data indicate that TPOXX is highly effective against currently circulating MPXV strains and could be an important contributor to curbing the ongoing outbreak.

Abstract
Little is known about the temporal patterns of infection and transmission of Lassa virus (LASV) within its natural reservoir (Mastomys natalensis). Here, we characterize infection dynamics and transmissibility of a LASV isolate (Soromba-R) in adult lab-reared M. natalensis originating from Mali. The lab-reared M. natalenesis proved to be highly susceptible to LASV isolates from geographically distinct regions of West Africa via multiple routes of exposure, with 50% infectious doses of < 1 TCID50. Postinoculation, LASV Soromba-R established a systemic infection with no signs of clinical disease. Viral RNA was detected in all nine tissues examined with peak concentrations detected between days 7 and 14 postinfection within most organs. There was an overall trend toward clearance of virus within 40 days of infection in most organs. The exception is lung specimens, which retained positivity throughout the course of the 85-day study. Direct (contact) and indirect (fomite) transmission experiments demonstrated 40% of experimentally infected M. natalensis were capable of transmitting LASV to naïve animals, with peak transmissibility occurring between 28 and 42 days post-inoculation. No differences in patterns of infection or transmission were noted between male and female experimentally infected rodents. Adult lab-reared M. natalensis are highly susceptible to genetically distinct LASV strains developing a temporary asymptomatic infection associated with virus shedding resulting in contact and fomite transmission within a cohort.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does the passive sperm separation device, Zymot, select sperm with lower DNA fragmentation levels compared to Density Gradient Centrifugation (DGC)?
Summary answer
The sperm separation device Zymot did not select sperm with lower DNA fragmentation levels compared to sperm selected by DGC or the neat sample.
What is known already
Previous studies have shown that sperm with high DNA fragmentation levels result in lower fertilisation rates, impaired embryo development, lower pregnancy rates and increases the risk of miscarriage. Currently, prior to fertility treatment, the method of choice for sperm selection is using DGC, which involves the centrifugation of sperm. Therefore, there is a clinical need for a sperm selection method that avoids centrifugation, while mimicking the natural process of sperm selection in the female reproductive tract and selects sperm with intact DNA.
Study design, size, duration
This blinded controlled study included 29 patients from which semen samples were obtained between May 2021- January 2022 at ReproMed fertility clinic (Dublin, Ireland). Ejaculates were split and processed using either DGC, passive separation device (Zymot; 850 uL) or unprocessed (neat; control) and assessed for sperm quality in terms of motility (progressive, non-progressive and immotile), morphology and DNA fragmentation (assessed using the COMET assay). Two hundred sperm were assessed for each analysis.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Motility and morphology were assessed using microscopy techniques as per WHO guidelines. DNA fragmentation was assessed using the COMET assay and each sample was given an Average COMET score (ACS), Low COMET score (LCS) and High COMET score (HCS). All data were checked for normality of distribution following which they were analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni post-hoc tests. All values presented are mean ± standard error of the mean.
Main results and the role of chance
Sperm sorted by the Zymot device had higher progressive motility (78.7 + 3.42%) than both the neat (53.3 + 3.40%) and DGC (51.8 + 3.74%%) samples (P < 0.001). Sperm selected by DGC had a greater percentage of sperm with non-progressive motility (16.0 + 2.02%) compared to the neat sample (8.6 + 1.11%) and the Zymot device (9.9 + 1.60%). The overall percentage of normal morphology in the neat sample was 4.3 + 0.16% and there was no effect of sperm selection method on the percentage of sperm with normal morphology (P > 0.05). The ACS in the neat sample was 32.5 + 1.48% and neither DGC (28.2 + 1.45%) or Zymot (29.1 + 1.50%) improved this (P > 0.05). In line with this, neither LCS nor HCS differed between the treatments (P > 0.05).
Limitations, reasons for caution
A higher number of patient samples are needed to validate the efficacy of the Zymot sperm separation device on DNA fragmentation levels. Also, targeting patients with higher DNA fragmentation in the neat sample may yield greater benefits.
Wider implications of the findings
The results of this study indicate that the passive sperm selection device, Zymot, selects more motile sperm but does not select sperm with intact DNA. There is a need for a non-cell destructive method to select sperm with intact DNA to improve the outcomes for couples undergoing fertility treatment.

Abstract
High-touch environmental surfaces are acknowledged as potential sources of pathogen transmission, particularly in health care settings where infectious agents may be readily abundant. Methods of disinfecting these surfaces often include direct application of a chemical disinfectant or simply wiping the surface with a disinfectant pre-soaked wipe (DPW). In this study, we examine the ability of four disinfectants, ethanol (EtOH), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), chlorine dioxide (ClO2), and potassium monopersulfate (KMPS), to inactivate SARS-CoV-2 on a hard, non-porous surface, assessing the effects of concentration and contact time. The efficacy of DPWs to decontaminate carriers spiked with SARS-CoV-2, as well as the transferability of the virus from used DPWs to clean surfaces, is also assessed. Stainless steel carriers inoculated with approximately 6 logs of SARS-CoV-2 prepared in a soil load were disinfected within 5 min through exposure to 66.5% EtOH, 0.5% NaOCl, and 1% KMPS. The addition of mechanical wiping using DPWs impregnated with these biocides rendered the virus inactive almost immediately, with no viral transfer from the used DPW to adjacent surfaces. Carriers treated with 100 ppm of ClO2 showed a significant amount of viable virus remaining after 10 min of biocide exposure, while the virus was only completely inactivated after 10 min of treatment with 500 ppm of ClO2. Wiping SARS-CoV-2-spiked carriers with DPWs containing either concentration of ClO2 for 5 s left significant amounts of viable virus on the carriers. Furthermore, higher titers of infectious virus retained on the ClO2-infused DPWs were transferred to uninoculated carriers immediately after wiping. Overall, 66.5% EtOH, 0.5% NaOCl, and 1% KMPS appear to be highly effective biocidal agents against SARS-CoV-2, while ClO2 formulations are much less efficacious.

Abstract
The use of antibody-based therapies for the treatment of high consequence viral pathogens has gained interest over the last fifteen years. Here, we sought to evaluate the use of unique camelid-based IgG antibodies to prevent lethal hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in Syrian hamsters. Using purified, polyclonal IgG antibodies generated in DNA-immunized alpacas, we demonstrate that post-exposure treatments reduced viral burdens and organ-specific pathology associated with lethal HPS. Antibody treated animals did not exhibit signs of disease and were completely protected. The unique structures and properties, particularly the reduced size, distinct paratope formation and increased solubility of camelid antibodies, in combination with this study support further pre-clinical evaluation of heavy-chain only antibodies for treatment of severe respiratory diseases, including HPS.

Abstract
Background There are currently limited data for the use of specific antiviral therapies for the treatment of Ebola virus disease (EVD). While there is anecdotal evidence that supportive care may be effective, there is a paucity of direct experimental data to demonstrate a role for supportive care in EVD. We studied the impact of ICU-level supportive care interventions including fluid resuscitation, vasoactive medications, blood transfusion, hydrocortisone, and ventilator support on the pathophysiology of EVD in rhesus macaques infected with a universally lethal dose of Ebola virus strain Makona C07. Methods Four NHPs were infected with a universally lethal dose Ebola virus strain Makona, in accordance with the gold standard lethal Ebola NHP challenge model. Following infection, the following therapeutic interventions were employed: continuous bedside supportive care, ventilator support, judicious fluid resuscitation, vasoactive medications, blood transfusion, and hydrocortisone as needed to treat cardiovascular compromise. A range of physiological parameters were continuously monitored to gage any response to the interventions. Results All four NHPs developed EVD and demonstrated a similar clinical course. All animals reached a terminal endpoint, which occurred at an average time of 166.5 ± 14.8 h post-infection. Fluid administration may have temporarily blunted a rise in lactate, but the effect was short lived. Vasoactive medications resulted in short-lived improvements in mean arterial pressure. Blood transfusion and hydrocortisone did not appear to have a significant positive impact on the course of the disease. Conclusions The model employed for this study is reflective of an intramuscular infection in humans (e.g., needle stick) and is highly lethal to NHPs. Using this model, we found that the animals developed progressive severe organ dysfunction and profound shock preceding death. While the overall impact of supportive care on the observed pathophysiology was limited, we did observe some time-dependent positive responses. Since this model is highly lethal, it does not reflect the full spectrum of human EVD. Our findings support the need for continued development of animal models that replicate the spectrum of human disease as well as ongoing development of anti-Ebola therapies to complement supportive care.

Abstract
Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase acid-like 3b (SMPDL3b) is a lipid raft enzyme that regulates plasma membrane (PM) fluidity. Here we report that SMPDL3b excess, as observed in podocytes in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), impairs insulin receptor isoform B-dependent pro-survival insulin signaling by interfering with insulin receptor isoforms binding to caveolin-1 in the PM. SMPDL3b excess affects the production of active sphingolipids resulting in decreased ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) content as observed in human podocytes in vitro and in kidney cortexes of diabetic db/db mice in vivo. Podocyte-specific Smpdl3b deficiency in db/db mice is sufficient to restore kidney cortex C1P content and to protect from DKD. Exogenous administration of C1P restores IR signaling in vitro and prevents established DKD progression in vivo. Taken together, we identify SMPDL3b as a modulator of insulin signaling and demonstrate that supplementation with exogenous C1P may represent a lipid therapeutic strategy to treat diabetic complications such as DKD.

Abstract
In North America, Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is the main cause of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), a severe respiratory disease with a fatality rate of 35–40%. SNV is a zoonotic pathogen carried by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), and few studies have been performed examining its transmission in deer mouse populations. Studying SNV and other hantaviruses can be difficult due to the need to propagate the virus in vivo for subsequent experiments. We show that when compared with standard intramuscular infection, the intraperitoneal infection of deer mice can be as effective in producing SNV stocks with a high viral RNA copy number, and this method of infection provides a more reproducible infection model. Furthermore, the age and sex of the infected deer mice have little effect on viral replication and shedding. We also describe a reliable model of direct experimental SNV transmission. We examined the transmission of SNV between deer mice and found that direct contact between deer mice is the main driver of SNV transmission rather than exposure to contaminated excreta/secreta, which is thought to be the main driver of transmission of the virus to humans. Furthermore, increases in heat shock responses or testosterone levels in SNV-infected deer mice do not increase the replication, shedding, or rate of transmission. Here, we have demonstrated a model for the transmission of SNV between deer mice, the natural rodent reservoir for the virus. The use of this model will have important implications for further examining SNV transmission and in developing strategies for the prevention of SNV infection in deer mouse populations.

Abstract
The previous serological algorithm for Zika virus (ZIKV) comprised screening by anti-ZIKV IgM capture ELISA (MAC-ELISA) for samples collected within 3 months postexposure or onset (MPEO). Samples positive by MAC-ELISA and samples collected beyond 3 MPEO were tested by the confirmatory plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), which proved laborious and time-consuming during the 2015 outbreak. Thus, we evaluated several ZIKV ELISAs to establish an anti-IgM and anti-IgG combination for use as a screening tool for all samples prior to PRNT confirmation. The MAC-ELISA or InBios-M in combination with the Euroimmun-G demonstrated sensitivities of 99.1% and 97.2%, respectively, and nonflavivirus specificity of 96.0%. Their cross-reactivities were 71.4% and 50.0%, respectively, for sera positive for Dengue virus antibodies. Due to near-perfect interrater agreement with PRNT and excellent detection of samples collected beyond 3 MPEO, these combinations were recommended as a screening protocol in a new high-throughput algorithm with special considerations for ZIKV diagnostics.

Abstract
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) outbreaks have considerable impact on human and animal health. Here, we are reporting a serosurvey of cattle from all regions of Mali. These demonstrated that few had been exposed to RVFV from 2005 to 2014. Recent outbreaks of RVF in Niger and a single human case in Mali provide justification for further entomological and ecological studies of this virus.

Abstract
Because of the global spread of Zika virus, accurate and high-throughput diagnostic immunoassays are needed. We compared the sensitivity and specificity of 5 commercially available Zika virus serologic assays to the recommended protocol of Zika virus IgM-capture ELISA and plaque-reduction neutralization tests. Most commercial immunoassays showed low sensitivity, which can be increased.

Abstract
Zika virus (ZIKV) is rapidly spreading throughout the Americas and is associated with significant fetal complications, most notably microcephaly. Treatment with polyclonal antibodies for pregnant women at risk of ZIKV-related complications could be a safe alternative to vaccination. We found that large quantities of human polyclonal antibodies could be rapidly produced in transchromosomal bovines (TcB) and successfully used to protect mice from lethal infection. Additionally, antibody treatment eliminated ZIKV induced tissue damage in immunologically privileged sites such as the brain and testes and protected against testicular atrophy. These data indicate that rapid development and deployment of human polyclonal antibodies could be a viable countermeasure against ZIKV.

Abstract
Biochemical methods such as metabolite testing and serotyping are traditionally used in clinical microbiology laboratories to identify and categorize microorganisms. Due to the large variety of bacteria, identifying representative metabolites is tedious, while raising high-quality antisera or antibodies unique to specific biomarkers used in serotyping is very challenging, sometimes even impossible. Although serotyping is a certified approach for differentiating bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella at the subspecies level, the method is tedious, laborious, and not practical during an infectious disease outbreak. Mass spectrometry (MS) platforms, especially matrix assisted laser desorption and ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), have recently become popular in the field of bacterial identification due to their fast speed and low cost. In the past few years, we have used liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based approaches to solve various problems hindering serotyping and have overcome some insufficiencies of the MALDI-TOF-MS platform. The current article aims to review the characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages of MS-based platforms over traditional approaches in bacterial identification and categorization.

Abstract
Toxin expression is a key factor in Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing E. coli, a common pathogen involved in foodborne disease outbreaks. A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) based approach has been used in this study to identify commonly reported E. coli toxins, with a focus on Shiga toxins (Stxs). Different sample preparation methods using variable culture conditions and concentrations of mitomycin C (MMC), a common antibiotic/chemotherapy agent capable of stimulating Stx production, were first tested on reference strains EDL933 and 90-2380 by LC-MS/MS detection of tryptic digests of receptor-analogue affinity binding enriched Stx preparations from culture supernatants and lysates. A curated E. coli protein toxin database was also used for faster and more straightforward toxin identification. With eight more genetically confirmed E. coli strains examined to verify the method, this preliminary study indicates that receptor-analogue based affinity enrichment on cell lysate or supernatant is a sensitive and accurate method for Stx identification. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE The existence of Stx is very important for identifying Stx-producing E. coli and implementing a clinical treatment regime. This study demonstrates for the first time that using a curated E. coli toxin database, together with receptor-analogue-based affinity enrichment of Stxs after MMC treatment of E. coli, is an easy and appropriate approach for fast and accurate Stx identification through LC-MS/MS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE MR fingerprinting allows rapid simultaneous quantification of T1 and T2 relaxation times. This study assessed the utility of MR fingerprinting in differentiating common types of adult intra-axial brain tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS MR fingerprinting acquisition was performed in 31 patients with untreated intra-axial brain tumors: 17 glioblastomas, 6 World Health Organization grade II lower grade gliomas, and 8 metastases. T1, T2 of the solid tumor, immediate peritumoral white matter, and contralateral white matter were summarized within each ROI. Statistical comparisons on mean, SD, skewness, and kurtosis were performed by using the univariate Wilcoxon rank sum test across various tumor types. Bonferroni correction was used to correct for multiple-comparison testing. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed for discrimination between glioblastomas and metastases, and area under the receiver operator curve was calculated. RESULTS Mean T2 values could differentiate solid tumor regions of lower grade gliomas from metastases (mean, 172 ± 53 ms, and 105 ± 27 ms, respectively; P = .004, significant after Bonferroni correction). The mean T1 of peritumoral white matter surrounding lower grade gliomas differed from peritumoral white matter around glioblastomas (mean, 1066 ± 218 ms, and 1578 ± 331 ms, respectively; P = .004, significant after Bonferroni correction). Logistic regression analysis revealed that the mean T2 of solid tumor offered the best separation between glioblastomas and metastases with an area under the curve of 0.86 (95% CI, 0.69-1.00; P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS MR fingerprinting allows rapid simultaneous T1 and T2 measurement in brain tumors and surrounding tissues. MR fingerprinting-based relaxometry can identify quantitative differences between solid tumor regions of lower grade gliomas and metastases and between peritumoral regions of glioblastomas and lower grade gliomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Despite availability of advanced imaging, distinguishing radiation necrosis from recurrent brain tumors noninvasively is a big challenge in neuro-oncology. Our aim was to determine the feasibility of radiomic (computer-extracted texture) features in differentiating radiation necrosis from recurrent brain tumors on routine MR imaging (gadolinium T1WI, T2WI, FLAIR). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of brain tumor MR imaging performed 9 months (or later) post-radiochemotherapy was performed from 2 institutions. Fifty-eight patient studies were analyzed, consisting of a training (n = 43) cohort from one institution and an independent test (n = 15) cohort from another, with surgical histologic findings confirmed by an experienced neuropathologist at the respective institutions. Brain lesions on MR imaging were manually annotated by an expert neuroradiologist. A set of radiomic features was extracted for every lesion on each MR imaging sequence: gadolinium T1WI, T2WI, and FLAIR. Feature selection was used to identify the top 5 most discriminating features for every MR imaging sequence on the training cohort. These features were then evaluated on the test cohort by a support vector machine classifier. The classification performance was compared against diagnostic reads by 2 expert neuroradiologists who had access to the same MR imaging sequences (gadolinium T1WI, T2WI, and FLAIR) as the classifier. RESULTS On the training cohort, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was highest for FLAIR with 0.79; 95% CI, 0.77-0.81 for primary (n = 22); and 0.79, 95% CI, 0.75-0.83 for metastatic subgroups (n = 21). Of the 15 studies in the holdout cohort, the support vector machine classifier identified 12 of 15 studies correctly, while neuroradiologist 1 diagnosed 7 of 15 and neuroradiologist 2 diagnosed 8 of 15 studies correctly, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our preliminary results suggest that radiomic features may provide complementary diagnostic information on routine MR imaging sequences that may improve the distinction of radiation necrosis from recurrence for both primary and metastatic brain tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Escherichia coli H antigen typing with antisera, a useful method for flagella clinical identification and classification, is a time-consuming process because of the need to induce flagella growth and the occurrence of undetermined strains. We developed an alternative rapid and analytically sensitive mass spectrometry (MS) method, termed MS-based H antigen typing (MS-H), and applied it at the protein sequence level for H antigen typing. We also performed a comparison with traditional serotyping on reference strains and clinical isolates. METHODS On the basis of international guidelines, the analytical selectivity and sensitivity, imprecision, correlation, repeatability, and reproducibility of the MS-H platform was evaluated using reference strains. Comparison of MS-H typing and serotyping was performed using 302 clinical isolates from 5 Canadian provinces, and discrepant results between the 2 platforms were resolved through whole genome sequencing. RESULTS Repeated tests on reference strain EDL933 demonstrated a lower limit of the measuring interval at the subsingle colony (16.97 μg or 1.465 × 10(7) cells) level and close correlation (r(2) > 0.99) between cell culture biomass and sequence coverage. The CV was <10.0% among multiple repeats with 4 reference strains. Intra- and interlaboratory tests demonstrated that the MS-H method was robust and reproducible under various sample preparation and instrumentation conditions. Using discrepancy analysis via whole genome sequencing, performed on isolates with discrepant results, MS-H accurately identified 12.3% more isolates than conventional serotyping. CONCLUSIONS MS-H typing of E. coli is useful for fast and accurate flagella typing and could be very useful during E. coli outbreaks.

Abstract
Background Mass spectrometry (MS) is a very sensitive and specific method for protein identification, biomarker discovery, and biomarker validation. Protein identification is commonly carried out by comparing MS data with public databases. However, with the development of high throughput and accurate genomic sequencing technology, public databases are being overwhelmed with new entries from different species every day. The application of these databases can also be problematic due to factors such as size, specificity, and unharmonized annotation of the molecules of interest. Current databases representing liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based searches focus on enzyme digestion patterns and sequence information and consequently, important functional information can be missed within the search output. Protein variants displaying similar sequence homology can interfere with database identification when only certain homologues are examined. In addition, recombinant DNA technology can result in products that may not be accurately annotated in public databases. Curated databases, which focus on the molecule of interest with clearer functional annotation and sequence information, are necessary for accurate protein identification and validation. Here, four cases of curated database application have been explored and summarized. Findings The four presented curated databases were constructed with clear goals regarding application and have proven very useful for targeted protein identification and biomarker application in different fields. They include a sheeppox virus database created for accurate identification of proteins with strong antigenicity, a custom database containing clearly annotated protein variants such as tau transcript variant 2 for accurate biomarker identification, a sheep-hamster chimeric prion protein (PrP) database constructed for assay development of prion diseases, and a custom Escherichia coli (E. coli) flagella (H antigen) database produced for MS-H, a new H-typing technique. Clearly annotating the proteins of interest was essential for highly accurate, specific, and sensitive sequence identification, and searching against public databases resulted in inaccurate identification of the sequence of interest, while combining the curated database with a public database reduced both the confidence and sequence coverage of the protein search. Conclusion Curated protein sequence databases incorporating clear annotations are very useful for accurate protein identification and fit-for-purpose application through MS-based biomarker validation.

Abstract
Attachment to an abusive caregiver has wide phylogenetic representation, suggesting that animal models are useful in understanding the neural basis underlying this phenomenon and subsequent behavioral outcomes. We previously developed a rat model, in which we use classical conditioning to parallel learning processes evoked during secure attachment (odor-stroke, with stroke mimicking tactile stimulation from the caregiver) or attachment despite adversity (odor-shock, with shock mimicking maltreatment). Here we extend this model to mice. We conditioned infant mice (postnatal day (PN) 7-9 or 13-14) with presentations of peppermint odor and either stroking or shock. We used (14) C 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) to assess olfactory bulb and amygdala metabolic changes following learning. PN7-9 mice learned to prefer an odor following either odor-stroke or shock conditioning, whereas odor-shock conditioning at PN13-14 resulted in aversion/fear learning. 2-DG data indicated enhanced bulbar activity in PN7-9 preference learning, whereas significant amygdala activity was present following aversion learning at PN13-14. Overall, the mouse results parallel behavioral and neural results in the rat model of attachment, and provide the foundation for the use of transgenic and knockout models to assess the impact of both genetic (biological vulnerabilities) and environmental factors (abusive) on attachment-related behaviors and behavioral development.

Abstract
Malignant gliomas are lethal cancers that display cellular hierarchies with cancer stem cells at the apex. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) are not uniformly distributed, but rather located in specialized niches, suggesting that the cancer stem cell phenotype is regulated by the tumor microenvironment. Indeed, recent studies show that hypoxia and its molecular responses regulate cancer stem cell maintenance. We now demonstrate that acidic conditions, independent of restricted oxygen, promote the expression of GSC markers, self-renewal and tumor growth. GSCs exert paracrine effects on tumor growth through elaboration of angiogenic factors, and low pH conditions augment this expression associated with induction of hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF2α), a GSC-specific regulator. Induction of HIF2α and other GSC markers by acidic stress can be reverted by elevating pH in vitro, suggesting that raising intratumoral pH may be beneficial for targeting the GSC phenotype. Together, our results suggest that exposure to low pH promotes malignancy through the induction of a cancer stem cell phenotype, and that culturing cancer cells at lower pH reflective of endogenous tumor conditions may better retain the cellular heterogeneity found in tumors.
