Abstract Acute gastroenteritis viruses, such as rotavirus, human norovirus, human astrovirus, human adenovirus, human sapovirus, represent significant threats to global public health. Research on these pathogens has long...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Among Paramyxoviruses (PMVs), measles virus (MeV) and human parainfluenza virus (HPIV) are major contributors to respiratory tract infections worldwide. Despite recurrent outbreaks of MeV and...

Efficient and eco-friendly disinfection of air-borne human respiratory RNA viruses is pursued in both public environment and portable usage. The AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet (DUV) light-emission diode (LED) has high prac...

Deep-ultraviolet (DUV) sterilization technology using DUV-LEDs has attracted considerable attention owing to its portability, eco-friendliness, high potency, and broad-spectrum sterilization. This study compiles the deve...

BackgroundHMPV is a leading cause of pediatric lower respiratory tract infections, second only to respiratory syncytial virus in causing severe pneumonia in children. Its clinical presentation closely mimics other common...

Millions of microorganisms—including bacteria, viruses, fungi, archaea, and protists—reside on and within the human body, collectively forming the human microbiota. This complex and dynamic community plays a crucial ...

The p53 transcription factor plays a key role both in cancer and in the cell-intrinsic response to infections. The ORFEOME project hypothesized that novel p53-virus interactions reside in hitherto uncharacterized, unknow...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a leading cause of acute respiratory tract infections, particularly in children, older adults, and individuals with immunocompromising conditions. Despite incr...

Abstract Background Rodents are reservoirs of zoonotic viruses that significantly threaten public health. This study investigated the RNA virome of 624 rodents collected across six ecological zones in Yunnan Province, Ch...

Picobirnaviruses (PBV) are small, non-enveloped viruses with a bisegmented double-stranded RNA genome. In this study a PBV strain, PBV/Horse/India/BG-Eq-3/ 2010, was identified in the faeces of a 10 month old weaned fema...

Abstract The ongoing outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) subtype H5N1 in the U.S. poses a significant public health threat. To date, 70 human cases have been confirmed in the United States, includ...

Abstract SARS-CoV-2 infection of humans and its spillover into new species illustrates the need for effective predictive tools designed to identify host ranges of emerging zoonotic viruses. We hypothesized that host rece...

Orf virus (ORFV) is the etiological agent of Contagious Ecthyma (CE) disease that mainly affects sheep, goats, wild ruminants, and humans with a worldwide distribution. To date, only two strains from Argentinian sheep ha...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the U.S. and the primary cause of multiple anogenital and oropharyngeal cancers. Although HPV vaccination is effective, uptake remains subop...

Abstract Introduction The majority of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection diagnoses in France involve migrant populations, who face challenges in navigating...

Rotavirus A (RVA) possesses a genome of 11 double-stranded (ds) RNA segments, and each segment encodes one protein, with the exception of segment 11. NSP4 is a non-structural multifunctional protein encoded by segment 10...

Quantifying neutralizing antibody levels across anatomical sites and understanding correlates of neutralization breadth is paramount for monoclonal antibody treatments and next-generation vaccination strategies. The syst...

Introduction. The most commonly diagnosed cancer group in humans is cancers of the skin. One pre‑invasive form of squamous cell carcinoma is Bowen's disease. It manifests in the form of single or multiple lesions, whi...

Recently a new human hepatitis virus was identified. Hepatitis G virus (HGV) can be transmitted parenterally. Patients on hemodialysis (HD) have been shown to be at increased risk of this new virus. Whether continuous am...

Dicistroviridae is a new family of small, non-enveloped, +ssRNA viruses pathogenic to both beneficial arthropods and insect pests. Little is known about the dicistrovirus replication mechanism or gene function, and any k...
