Hypercapnia as a Key Mechanism in the Development of Pulmonary Hypertension in Malignant Pertussis: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Despite intensive care advances, malignant pertussis (MP) remains highly lethal. Our case suggests that hypercapnia‐induced pulmonary vasoconstriction may play a reversible role in MP pathophysiology. Thus, targeting hypercapnia control could represent a promising therapeutic approach in managing this severe complication.

Incidence of RSV‐ and Influenza‐Associated Hospitalizations With Community‐Acquired Pneumonia and Other Acute Respiratory Infection Among Adults in Japan in 2022–2024: APSG‐J2 Study

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Quantifying the burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in adults is challenging compared to influenza, and data among older adults remain scarce in Japan. Country‐specific evidence is essential to support RSV vaccination policy.

Protein chainmail variants in dsDNA viruses. [PDF]

, 2015
First discovered in bacteriophage HK97, biological chainmail is a highly stable system formed by concatenated protein rings. Each subunit of the ring contains the HK97-like fold, which is characterized by its submarine-like shape with a 5-stranded β ...

Torque Teno Virus Levels During Viral Respiratory Infections: The Interplay With Immune Dysregulation and Coagulopathy Biomarkers

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Torque teno virus (TTV) is a ubiquitous, nonenveloped DNA virus of the Anelloviridae family and a proposed surrogate marker of immune competence. Although nonpathogenic, its replication reflects host immune status and is associated with immune dysregulation during respiratory viral infections (RVIs).

A real-time PCR assay with improved specificity for detection and discrimination of all clinically relevant Bordetella species by the presence and distribution of three Insertion Sequence elements

BMC Research Notes, 2011
Background In Dutch laboratories molecular detection of B. pertussis and B. parapertussis is commonly based on insertion sequences IS481 and IS1001, respectively. Both IS elements are more widely spread among Bordetella species. Both Bordetella holmesii,

Exploring the Potential and Evaluating Hydrocarbon Degradation by Novel Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas Isolates From a Pristine Environment

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...

Host Oxidative Response Capacity Determines Longevity Outcomes of Microbial Interventions

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.
Genetic variation determines whether microbial interactions extend or shorten host lifespan via redox homeostasis. This discovery highlights the critical role of host genetics in shaping microbiota‐driven aging, offering a new framework for precision microbiome interventions tailored to individual needs for promoting longevity.
