Blood platelets are first aimed at ensuring primary hemostasis. Beyond this role, they have been acknowledged as having functions in the maintenance of the vascular arborescence and, more recently, as being also innate i...

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...

Since 2004, there have been several reports of Influenza A virus (FLUAV) infection in dogs. Dogs have been infected with equine influenza H3N8, avian influenza H3N2 and H5N1, and the pandemic H1N1 virus. Because of recen...

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...

Pollination is critical for food production and has the particularity of linking natural ecosystems with agricultural production systems. Recently, losses of bumblebee species have been reported worldwide. In this study,...

Integrative proteome-wide virtual screening offers a powerful route to discover broad-spectrum antivirals against emerging flaviviruses, for which no approved therapeutics currently exist. Here, we address this gap by co...

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...

The tomato leafminer Tuta absoluta (Meyrick 1917) (Lepidoptera:Gelechiidae) is a devastating pest, causing losses of up to 100%. An interesting tool for its control is the use of the insect specific viruses of Baculovir...

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...

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...

A single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) virus was detected in Yerba mate samples showing chlorotic linear patterns, chlorotic rings and vein yellowing. The full-genome sequences of six different isolates of this ssDNA circular vir...

Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are a serious threat to global food security, with estimated annual losses exceeding $173 billion. Beyond their direct damage, interactions between PPNs and other phytopathogens can lead ...

Until recently, members of the monogeneric family Arenaviridae (arenaviruses) have been known to infect only muroid rodents and, in one case, possibly phyllostomid bats. The paradigm of arenaviruses exclusively infecting...

The corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (DeLong & Wolcott) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), was considered a secondary pest in Brazilian corn crops. However, from 2015 onwards, there was a significant increase in its population a...

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...

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 Background Bacterial diseases include any illness caused by bacteria. Bacteria are tiny microorganisms that can only be seen with a microscope. Other types of microorganisms include viruses, fungi, and some para...

Since the 2022 global mpox outbreak, the lack of specific antibodies for mpox virus (MPXV) detection has hindered precise immunoassays due to cross-reactivity among Orthopoxviruses (OPXVs). This study developed and chara...

The parenteral administration of antivenoms is the cornerstone of snakebite envenoming therapy. Efforts are made to ensure that antivenoms of adequate efficacy and safety are available world-wide. We address the main iss...

mRNA vaccines emerged as a leading vaccine technology during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, their sustained protective efficacies were limited by relatively short-lived antibody responses and the emergence of SARS-CoV-2...

ABSTRACT Bovine alphaherpesviruses 1 and 5 (BoHV-1/5) are main pathogens of respiratory, reproductive and neurological diseases in cattle. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of neutralizing antibodies...

Abstract Potato crops in Bangladesh are significantly threatened by viral diseases, underscoring the need for comprehensive virome profiling to inform sustainable management strategies. In this study, we employed high-th...
