Astroviruses☆

open access: yes, 2014
Astroviruses are positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses. Their genomes contain three open reading frames, but the exact number of encoded proteins remains unknown. Astroviruses were originally identified in association with childhood diarrhea; subsequently, they have been identified as a common enteric virus infecting children under the age of 2 ...

dsRADAR: Imaging and Detecting Cellular dsRNA by Repurposing RNA‐Binding Proteins

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) plays an important role in the innate immune system, but can be misregulated in disease, leading to inflammation. Despite the importance of this motif, methods for detecting dsRNA remain limited. This work shows that ADAR3 can be repurposed to provide improved detection of dsRNA, which is demonstrated in the context of viral

Putting Rodents at the Center of One Health Programs: A Narrative Synthesis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rodents link human, animal, and environmental health across diverse ecosystems. Rodent diversity underpins both zoonotic disease risk and ecosystem function. Environmental change reshapes rodent communities and spillover dynamics. Rodents act as reservoirs, amplifiers, and sentinels of emerging pathogens.
