The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Screening of FDA-approved drugs using a recombinant Cedar virus to improve treatment options for Nipah virus infection

Journal of General Virology
Nipah virus and Hendra virus are highly pathogenic henipaviruses for which there are no approved therapeutics for use in humans. Using recombinant Cedar virus expressing luciferase (rCedV-Luc) as a CL2 surrogate, we screened a library of 2,703 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved compounds, yielding 5 promising candidates ...

A Comparative Assessment of the Pathogenic Potential of Newly Discovered Henipaviruses

Pathogens
Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have led to the discovery of a plethora of previously unknown viruses in animal samples. Some of these newly detected viruses are closely related to human pathogens.

Assessing Major Adverse Liver Outcomes With Baclofen Compared to Acamprosate in Compensated Alcohol‐Associated Cirrhosis

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 12, Page 1673-1684, June 2026.
We conducted a nationwide, multicenter cohort study using a target trial emulation framework to compare baclofen and acamprosate in patients with compensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis. After matching, baclofen initiation was associated with a higher 1‐year risk of major adverse liver outcomes, driven primarily by hepatic encephalopathy, particularly

Analysis of Nipah Virus Codon Usage and Adaptation to Hosts

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
A recent outbreak of Nipah virus (NiV) in India has caused 17 deaths in people living in districts of Kerala state. Its zoonotic nature, as well as high rate of human-to-human transmission, has led researchers worldwide to work toward understanding the ...

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Pink Cedar ( Acrocarpus fraxinifolius ): its prophylactic role against APAP–induced organs toxicity in rats and its antiviral activity against Herpes simplex virus type 1 [PDF]

, 2018
Abstract The possible protective effects of methanolic extract Acrocarpus fraxinifolius leaves (MEAFL) were assessed against the APAP–induced organ toxicity in male rats. Also, the content of polyphenols extracted from AFL was studied, and their relationship with antioxidant ...
