Exploring perceptions of Italian urban wildlife on TikTok

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1470-1484, May 2026.
Abstract In Western cities, some animals are valued for their beauty, rarity or usefulness, while others are dismissed as unwelcome. This distinction reflects the cultural meanings attached to each species and frequently conflicts with ecological priorities.

Exploring the Effectiveness of Acyclovir against Ranaviral Thymidine Kinases: Molecular Docking and Experimental Validation in a Fish Cell Line

open access: yesLife
The effectiveness of acyclovir, a selective anti-herpesvirus agent, was tested both in silico and in vitro against two ranaviruses, namely the European catfish virus (ECV) and Frog virus 3 (FV3).

Temperature affects the host hematological and cytokine response following experimental ranavirus infection in red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Pathogen-host interactions are important components of epidemiological research, but are scarcely investigated in chelonians. Red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans), are recognized as a model for frog virus-3 infection (FV3), a ranavirus in the ...

Computational Characterization of the Role of LEM2/LaminA Interactions on the Stability of BAF‐Dimer Using Molecular Simulations

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1104-1114, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The effect of the presence of the BAF‐binding LEM‐domain and LaminA Ig‐fold on the stability of the BAF dimer was studied qualitatively using non‐equilibrium pull simulations and quantitatively through the calculation of the potential of mean force profile along BAF–BAF separation distance.

Pathogen Risk Analysis for Wild Amphibian Populations Following the First Report of a Ranavirus Outbreak in Farmed American Bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeianus) from Northern Mexico

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Ranaviruses are the second deadliest pathogens for amphibian populations throughout the world. Despite their wide distribution in America, these viruses have never been reported in Mexico, the country with the fifth highest amphibian diversity in the ...

The genome sequence of the emerging common midwife toad virus identifies an evolutionary intermediate within ranaviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Worldwide amphibian population declines have been ascribed to global warming, increasing pollution levels, and other factors directly related to human activities. These factors may additionally be favoring the emergence of novel pathogens.

Frog Virus 3 DNA Replication Occurs in Two Stages [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1982
Viral DNA synthesis in frog virus 3 (FV3)-infected cells occurs both in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm (Goorha et al., Virology 84 :32-51, 1978). Relationships between viral DNA molecules synthesized in these two compartments and their role in the virus replication were examined.

Evaluating the Molecular Potential and Interpretability of DNA in Historical Spirit Collection Media

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Advancements in historical genomics increasingly leverage museum collections to study past ecosystems, species interactions and biodiversity. Formalin‐fixed, ethanol‐preserved specimens, once thought inaccessible to molecular analyses due to DNA degradation, are emerging as valuable genomic resources.

Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesChemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...
