Role of Laboratory in Emerging Infectious Disease Control in Iran, Pasteur Institute of Iran, and national laboratory network

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Strengthening surveillance systems is a key aspect of outbreak response and was particularly important during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Respiratory pathogens spread rapidly, and laboratory capacity is key to monitoring the spread. Prior to the pandemic, Iran had established a rapid response team and laboratory network to provide identification ...

Molecular comparisons of full length metapneumovirus (MPV) genomes, including newly determined French AMPV-C and -D isolates, further supports possible subclassification within the MPV Genus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Four avian metapneumovirus (AMPV) subgroups (A-D) have been reported previously based on genetic and antigenic differences. However, until now full length sequences of the only known isolates of European subgroup C and subgroup D viruses (duck and turkey

Pathogenic bacteria associated with outbreaks of respiratory disease in Iranian broiler farms

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 4, Page 1675-1684, July 2023., 2023
Phylogenetic relationships among MG, MS and ORT strains based on the partial sequence of the mgc2, vlhA, and 16S rRNA genes, respectively. The trees were generated by the neighbor‐joining method using MEGA X software. The sequences from this study are indicated by the triangle shaped symbol.

Viral infections at the animal–human interface—Learning lessons from the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1397-1411, July 2023., 2023
Abstract This Lilliput explores the current epidemiological and virological arguments for a zoonotic origin of the COVID‐19 pandemic. While the role of bats, pangolins and racoon dogs as viral reservoirs has not yet been proven, a spill‐over of a coronavirus infection from animals into humans at the Huanan food market in Wuhan has a much greater ...

Structural and biophysical characterization of the Borna disease virus 1 phosphoprotein

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 79, Issue 3, Page 51-60, March 2023., 2023
The phosphoprotein is an essential component of the replication complex in bornaviruses. Here, using X‐ray crystallography, the structure of the phosphoprotein from Borna disease virus 1 is presented and its flexibility in solution is characterized.Bornaviruses are RNA viruses with a mammalian, reptilian, and avian host range.

Phylogenetic and phylodynamic analyses of subtype-B metapneumovirus from chickens in Tunisia

Poultry Science, 2023
: Swollen Head Syndrome (SHS) is an economically important viral disease of chickens caused by avian metapneumovirus (aMPV). The virus comprises 6 different subtypes (A,B,C,D, New-1 and New-2). To date, no information was available on the presence of the
