Zika virus: New clinical syndromes and its emergence in the western hemisphere [PDF]

, 2016
Zika virus (ZIKV) had remained a relatively obscure flavivirus until a recent series of outbreaks accompanied by unexpectedly severe clinical complications brought this virus into the spotlight as causing an infection of global public health concern.

A Focus on Natural Autophagy Modulators as Potential Host‐Directed Weapons Against Emerging and Re‐Emerging Viruses

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1850-1882, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

Perinatal chikungunya in twins

Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences, 2016
We report a case of vertically transmitted chikungunya infection in heterozygous twin neonates presenting as seizures, encephalopathy, midfacial hyperpigmentation, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. This could be considered as a rare cause of neonatal seizure and identification would help in appropriate management.

Divergent Delivery and Expression Kinetics of Lipid and Polymeric Nanoparticles across mRNA Modalities

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
Self‐amplifying (saRNA), linear (linRNA), and circular (circRNA) mRNAs are compared under standardized conditions using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and pABOL polymer. saRNA achieved superior expression, while linRNA and circRNA performance varied based on untranslated region elements and delivery method.

Lessons learned exploiting a multi‐year large‐scale data set derived from operational quality assessment of mosquito larval treatments in rain catch basins

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 6630-6638, October 2025.
Results highlight opposite associations between percentages of positive rain catch basins treated with diflubenzuron and Bacillus against mosquito larvae and/or pupae and the intervals between treatments and inspections, and spatial variability in vector control.

Imported Chikungunya Virus Strains, Taiwan, 2006–2014

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
We identified 78 imported chikungunya cases in Taiwan during 2006–2014. Sixty-six (84.6%) cases were initially suspected to be dengue, which indicates the necessity for laboratory diagnostics in differentiation between dengue and chikungunya.

Virtual dissection of Aedes aegypti mosquito using phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography

Journal of Microscopy, Volume 300, Issue 1, Page 68-76, October 2025.
Abstract In this paper, in‐line phase‐contrast synchrotron microtomography was used to study the morphology of adult Aedes aegypti. These specimens are vectors of several arboviruses, causing dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever. The morphological details of this insect species are still incomplete and insufficient.
