Seroprevalence and biochemical parameters among patients with Chikungunya in Adamaoua region, Cameroon: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2024.
Chikungunya is an emerging arthrogenic arboviral disease in Cameroon, with limited reports of liver involvement. This study revealed a relatively high CHIKV seroprevalence (21.5%) among participants recruited in Ngaoundere (Cameroon). Symptoms, including fever, headaches, and digestive disorders, and high transaminase values, particularly AST levels ...

NSs protein of Schmallenberg virus counteracts the antiviral response of the cell by inhibiting its transcriptional machinery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bunyaviruses have evolved a variety of strategies to counteract the antiviral defence systems of mammalian cells. Here we show that the NSs protein of Schmallenberg virus (SBV) induces the degradation of the RPB1 subunit of RNA polymerase II and ...

The role of P450 enzymes in malaria and other vector‐borne infectious diseases

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 16-32, January/February 2024.
We review published research data on P450 enzymes from all players in vector‐borne infections, that is, pathogens, vectors, and hosts, regarding the potential role of CYPs in disease. We discuss strategies on how to exploit cytochromes P450 in vector‐borne disease control.

Metagenomic next-generation sequencing of samples from pediatric febrile illness in Tororo, Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Febrile illness is a major burden in African children, and non-malarial causes of fever are uncertain. In this retrospective exploratory study, we used metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) to evaluate serum, nasopharyngeal, and stool specimens ...

Partial genetic characterization of Sedlec virus (Orthobunyavirus, Bunyaviridae)

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2013
Sedlec virus (SEDV) was isolated from the blood of a reed warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) in July 1984 in South Moravia, Czech Republic. In this study first genetic data of SEDV are presented which allow an estimate on its phylogenetic and taxonomic positioning within the genus Orthobunyavirus.

Infectious clone of a contemporary Tembusu virus and replicons expressing reporter genes or heterologous antigens from poultry viruses

open access: yesBiotechnology Journal, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2024.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary The recently discovered Tembusu virus (TMUV; family Flaviviridae), was identified as the causative agent of a significant outbreak of egg‐drop syndrome affecting ducks and other poultry in Southeast Asia in 2010. In this study, the authors constructed an infectious cDNA clone derived from a contemporary duck isolate ...

Molecular Prevalence and Phylogeny of Tick‐Borne Viruses in Meat and Dairy Products in the Republic of Korea

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Tick‐borne virus detection in livestock and slaughterhouse animals has recently surged in the United States and Europe. Although cases of patients with tick‐borne illnesses have been reported in Korea, food contamination from tick‐borne viruses has yet to be investigated.
