Genome-wide association study identifies 8p21.3 associated with persistent hepatitis B virus infection among Chinese

This genome-wide association study on persistent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among Chinese confirms previously associated genetic loci while discovering a novel protective locus at 8p21.3. The study also demonstrates the nearby gene INST10 suppresses HBV replication in vitro.

Differential effects of macrophage subtypes on SARS-CoV-2 infection in a human pluripotent stem cell-derived model

Model systems to study SARS-CoV-2 infection are required to better understand the immune response. Here the authors use a lung and macrophage co-culture system by differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells to better understand the phenotype and gene expression changes in host lung cells and macrophages after SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro.

Transformation of siderite to goethite by humic acid in the natural environment

The biochemical phosphate cycle is dependent on interfacial reactions between humic acid and iron-bearing minerals, but the role of humic acid remains unclear. Here the authors study the reaction of siderite with humic acid and its influence on phosphate adsorption.
