Human picornaviruses associated with neurological diseases and their neutralization by antibodies [PDF]
Picornaviruses are the most commonly encountered infectious agents in mankind. They typically cause mild infections of the gastrointestinal or respiratory tract, but sometimes also invade the central nervous system.

Induction of cytopathic effect and cytokines in coxsackievirus B3-infected murine astrocytes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Coxsackievirus commonly infects children and occasionally causes severe meningitis and/or encephalitis in the newborn. The underlying mechanism(s) behind the central nervous system pathology is poorly defined. METHODS: It is hypothesized that

Diverse Strategies Used by Picornaviruses to Escape Host RNA Decay Pathways
To successfully replicate, viruses protect their genomic material from degradation by the host cell. RNA viruses must contend with numerous destabilizing host cell processes including mRNA decay pathways and viral RNA (vRNA) degradation resulting from ...

The Role of miRNAs in Chicken Immune Regulation and Prospects for Disease‐Resistant Breeding
A schematic workflow illustrating the screening of disease‐resistant miRNAs and the generation of miRNA‐based disease‐resistant chickens via PGC‐mediated germline genome editing. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of the immune system, playing a decisive role in shaping disease resistance in chicken.

Proposed management of myo‐pericardial diseases. A systematic interdisciplinary approach to myo‐pericardial disease is essential to reach a correct diagnosis, starting from multiparametric characterization including EKG, echocardiography with GLS, laboratory exams and CMR or, in case of electric or haemodynamic instability, EMB.

Enteroviruses and T1D: Is It the Virus, the Genes or Both which Cause T1D
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that results from the selective destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in the pancreas. Up to now, the mechanisms triggering the initiation and progression of the disease are, in their complexity ...

Calcium signals and calpain-dependent necrosis are essential for release of coxsackievirus B from polarized intestinal epithelial cells [PDF]
Coxsackievirus B (CVB), a member of the enterovirus family, targets the polarized epithelial cells lining the intestinal tract early in infection. Although the polarized epithelium functions as a protective barrier, this barrier is likely exploited by ...
