Biosafety and Biosecurity Challenges Facing Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratories in Lower-Middle Income Countries in Southeast Asia: A Case Study of Thailand
Introduction: Global issues over rising and transboundary infectious zoonotic ailments have elevated illness diagnostic calls for, particularly in the veterinary sector. In growing or newly developed nations the place the sector usually works beneath restricted capability, biosafety and biosecurity are unlikely to be high-priority points. A latest improvement program supported by the Biological Threat Reduction Program of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency funded by the US authorities aimed to extend biosafety and biosecurity measures of authorities veterinary diagnostic and analysis laboratories in Thailand.
Objective: The function of this text is to determine biosafety and biosecurity challenges, alternatives, and suggestions.
Methods: Eleven authorities laboratory facilities have been assessed towards the Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) biosafety degree 2 (BSL-2) necessities guidelines. The BMBL evaluation outcomes have been then mixed with the outcomes of dialogue periods, and the outcomes of pre- and post-test questionnaires carried out throughout biosafety evaluation workshops and self-evaluation experiences utilizing the Food and Agriculture Organization Biosafety Laboratory Mapping Tool of every laboratory heart have been reviewed and summarized.
Results: Despite established nationwide insurance policies on laboratory biosafety and biosecurity, main challenges included (1) harmonization and enforcement of these insurance policies, particularly on the regional degree, and (2) engagement of personnel in implementations of biosafety and biosecurity measures.
Conclusion: Consistent biosafety coverage and allotted assets along with common coaching are required to develop sustainable biosafety and biosecurity on the nationwide degree. Collaboration between regional nations, worldwide organizations, and donors is crucial for bettering biosafety and biosecurity on a world scale by means of setting regional priorities, enacting regulatory requirements, and offering technical and monetary help.
Lab-Scale Production of Recombinant Adeno-Associated Viruses (AAV) for Expression of Optogenetic Elements
Optogenetics, that’s, the use of photoswitchable/-activatable moieties to exactly management or monitor the exercise of cells and genes at unprecedented spatiotemporal decision, holds great promise for a wide selection of purposes in elementary and scientific analysis. To absolutely notice and harness this potential, the supply of gene switch autos (“vectors”) which can be simply produced and that permit to ship the important parts to desired goal cells in an environment friendly method is vital.
For in vivo purposes, it’s, furthermore, necessary that these vectors exhibit a excessive diploma of cell specificity in order to scale back the danger of adversarial uncomfortable side effects in off-targets and to reduce manufacturing prices. Here, we describe a set of fundamental protocols for the cloning, manufacturing, purification, and high quality management of a selected vector that may fulfill all these necessities, that’s, recombinant adeno-associated viruses (AAV).
The latter are very engaging owing to their apathogenicity, their compatibility with the bottom biosafety degree 1 circumstances, their incidence in a number of pure variants with distinct properties, and their distinctive amenability to engineering of the viral capsid and genome.
Description: Endothelial cells express three different vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, belonging to the family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). They are named VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1), VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). Their expression is almost exclusively restricted to endothelial cells, but VEGFR-1 can also be found on monocytes, dendritic cells and on trophoblast cells. The flt-1 gene was first described in 1990. The receptor contains seven immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains, a single transmembrane region and an intracellular splited tyrosine kinase domain. Compared to VEGFR-2 the Flt-1 receptor has a higher affinity for VEGF but a weaker signaling activity. VEGFR-1 thus leads not to proliferation of endothelial cells, but mediates signals for differentiation. Interestingly a naturally occuring soluble variant of VEGFR-1 (sVEGFR-1) was found in HUVEC supernatants in 1996, which is generated by alternative splicing of the flt-1 mRNA.

Description: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF or VEGF-A) family members are major mediators of vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. Specifically, biological activities attributed to VEGFs include: mitogenic activity on endothelial cells, increased permeability of endothelial cells to proteins, stimulation of monocyte migration across endothelial cells and angiogenic activity. Three VEGF family receptors have been described: Flt-1 (fms-like tyrosine kinase) also known as VEGF R1, KDR (kinase-insert domain-containing receptor) also known as Flk-1 and VEGF R2, and Flt-4 also known as VEGF R3. The three receptors contain seven extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains and share substantial sequence homology. In addition, neuropilin-1, a neuronal receptor, also acts as a co-receptor for VEGF when expressed on vascular endothelial cells, endothelial cell progenitors and monocytes. VEGF R1 is expressed primarily on endothelial cells but is also found on human peripheral blood monocytes. Through its endothelial mitogenic and hyperpermeability activities, VEGF influences a variety of immune functions related to wound healing and blood protein traffic across endothelial barriers.

In addition, VEGFR-3 expression can be induced in tumors with active angiogenesis.
Description: Receptor tyrosine kinase VEGFR-3, also known as Flt-4, together with VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) and VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1), are the receptors for vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF). The VEGFR family belongs to the class II subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), containing a large extracellular region which is composed of seven Ig-like domains (D1–D7), a single transmembrane (TM) helix and cytoplasmic region with a tyrosine kinase activity. In VEGFR-3, the fifth Ig homology domain is proteolytically cleaved which results in polypeptides remaining linked by two disulfide bonds. VEGFR-3 is widely expressed on all endothelial cells in early embryogenesis, while, in adult tissues, VEGFR-3 expression disappears from the vascular endothelial cells and is observed only on the lymphatic endothelium. VEGF-C and VEGF-D activation of VEGFR-3 plays an important role in the formation of the lymphatic vessel system.
The particular procedures reported right here complement various protocols for AAV manufacturing described by others and us earlier than, and, collectively, ought to allow any laboratory to generate these vectors on a small-to-medium scale for ex vivo or in vivo expression of optogenetic parts.
