Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly transmissible and potentially fatal virus. So far, most comprehensive analyses encompassing clinical and transcriptional manifestation have concentrated on the lungs. Here, we confirmed evident signs of viral infection in the lungs and spleen of SARS-CoV-2-infected K18-hACE2 mice, which replicate the phenotype and infection symptoms in hospitalized humans. Seven days post viral detection in organs, infected mice showed decreased vital signs, leading to death. Bronchopneumonia due to infiltration of leukocytes in the lungs and reduction in the spleen lymphocyte region were observed. Transcriptome profiling implicated the meticulous regulation of distress and recovery from cytokine-mediated immunity by distinct immune cell types in a time-dependent manner. In lungs, the chemokine-driven response to viral invasion was highly elevated at 2 days post infection (dpi). In late infection, diseased lungs, post the innate immune process, showed recovery signs. The spleen established an even more immediate line of defense than the lungs, and the cytokine expression profile dropped at 7 dpi. At 5 dpi, spleen samples diverged into two distinct groups with different transcriptome profile and pathophysiology. Inhibition of consecutive host cell viral entry and massive immunoglobulin production and proteolysis inhibition seemed that one group endeavored to survive, while the other group struggled with developmental regeneration against consistent viral intrusion through the replication cycle. Our results may contribute to improved understanding of the longitudinal response to viral infection and development of potential therapeutics for hospitalized patients affected by SARS-CoV-2.

Ticks are obligatory ectoparasites of many vertebrates and transmit pathogens causing diseases such as Heartland virus and Ehrlichiosis. The lone star tick, Ambloyomma americanum L., is the primary vector of Ehrlichia chaffeensis, which causes human monocytic Ehrlichiosis. We aimed to investigate the genomic levels of gene regulation in the processes of acquiring the pathogen and of immune to pathogen. We designed six experimental groups: E. chaffeensis positive and negative groups of males and females, and pathogen free male and female ticks. Illumine HiSeq 2500 sequenced six libraries with 100-cycle single direction. Raw sequence reads (more than 209 million) were trimmed and filtered based on minimum quality score (Q-value >30) and size (> 40nt) for de novo assembly. Assembly using Trinity pipeline produced 140,574 contigs from trimmed and filtered sequence reads (about 117 million reads, 56% of raw data). For quality control of the de novo assembly of transcripts, we filtered out the sequences for mitochondrial, E. chaffeensis, and transposable elements sequences, and tested for contig redundancy and gap separations of the assembled sequences. RSEM and edgeR analyses of 61,802 contigs for identifying differentially expressed genes were followed by Blast2GO analyses for annotations of contigs and enriched-gene ontology (GO) term analyses in pairwise comparisons of the libraries. Further investigation of major groups of genes induced by pathogen would provide better understanding of pathogen-vector interaction, which will allow us to prevent of pathogen transmission by interrupting interaction between pathogen and ticks.

The ground tracking support is a critical factor for the navigation performance of spacecraft orbiting around the Moon. Because of the tracking limit of antennas, only a small number of facilities can support lunar missions. Therefore, case studies for various ground tracking support conditions are needed for lunar missions on the stage of preliminary mission analysis. This study analyzes the ground supporting condition effect on orbit determination (OD) of Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) in the lunar orbit. For the assumption of ground support conditions, daily tracking frequency, cut-off angle for low elevation, tracking measurement accuracy, and tracking failure situations were considered. Two antennas of deep space network (DSN) and Korea Deep Space Antenna (KDSA) are utilized for various tracking conditions configuration. For the investigation of the daily tracking frequency effect, three cases (full support, DSN 4 pass/day and KDSA 4 pass/day, and DSN 2 pass/day and KDSA 2 pass/day) are prepared. For the elevation cut-off angle effect, two situations, which are 5 deg and 10 deg, are assumed. Three cases (0%, 30%, and 50% of degradation) were considered for the tracking measurement accuracy effect. Three cases such as no missing, 1-day KDSA missing, and 2-day KDSA missing are assumed for tracking failure effect. For OD, a sequential estimation algorithm was used, and for the OD performance evaluation, position uncertainty, position differences between true and estimated orbits, and orbit overlap precision according to various ground supporting conditions were investigated. Orbit prediction accuracy variations due to ground tracking conditions were also demonstrated. This study provides a guideline for selecting ground tracking support levels and preparing a backup plan for the KPLO lunar mission phase.

Tick salivary secretion during blood-feeding is crucial for successful tick feeding. Control of salivary secretion involves dopamine, which is the most potent inducer of tick salivation. Dopamine activates salivation by orchestrating two different physiological responses through two distinct dopamine receptors. In addition, the study demonstrated that two different types of cells in the salivary gland acini are responsible for each of the diverging physiological pathways: epithelial cells for inward fluid transport and myoepithelial cells for expelling fluid out through the acinar ducts. We were further interested in the downstream physiology of the dopamine receptors. A candidate gene (Na/K-ATPase), which is highly expressed in the salivary glands, was investigated. Immunoreactivity revealed that Na/K-ATPase is expressed in epithelial cells of acini. Ouabain, a Na/K-ATPase blocker, significantly suppressed both dopamine induced inward fluid transport and dopamine induced salivation in a dose-dependent manner. We measured the salivary contents to determine Na, K, and Cl ion, and protein concentrations. Treatment of ouabain at the low dose produced hyperosmolar saliva, but with same amount of protein as the control saliva. The results suggest that ouabain-sensitive Na/K-ATPase is the main downstream pathway for dopamine response in the epithelial cells of salivary gland for water transport, but not for protein secretion.

Purpose: To evaluate the changes in esodeviation after inferior oblique (IO) recession in patients with refractive accommodativeesotropia and IO overaction. Methods: Graded IO recession was performed in 68 patients who were diagnosed with refractive accommodative esotropiawith IO overaction. The patients were followed for at least 3 months after surgery and the angle of esodeviation with correctionwas evaluated at distance and near at each follow-up evaluation. The patients were divided into two groups: patientswho underwent unilateral IO recession (UIO-Rec) and patients who underwent bilateral IO recession (BIO-Rec). The change inesodeviation after surgery was compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 68 patients were enrolled in this study, with 38 patients in the UIO-Rec group and 30 in the BIO-Rec group. In the UIO-Rec group, there was no statistically significant difference in esodeviation before and after surgery. In the BIO-Recgroup, esodeviation at distance increased significantly 1 day postoperatively (p = 0.033). However, esodeviation returned tothe preoperative value one week after surgery (p = 0.665). Changes in esodeviation at distance were significantly greater inthe BIO-Rec group than in the UIO-Rec group one day after surgery (p = 0.044). Conclusions: Bilateral IO-weakening surgery induced a transient increase in esodeviation in patients with refractive accommodativeesotropia. However, we found no evidence that well-controlled esotropia with corrected hyperopia became decompensatedafter IO-weakening surgery, as induced esodeviation was minor and temporary.
