Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 Virus Infection in Giant Pandas, China

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
We confirmed infection with influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 in giant pandas in China during 2009 by using virus isolation and serologic analysis methods. This finding extends the host range of influenza viruses and indicates a need for increased surveillance for ...

Eagle's Syndrome Presenting With Peripheral Facial Palsy—A Case Report

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Eagle's syndrome is a condition caused by an elongated styloid process and is characterized by various symptoms such as cervicofacial pain, foreign body sensation, headache, odynophagia, and otalgia. However, the occurrence of a unilateral peripheral facial palsy as a symptom of Eagle's syndrome has been described only rarely ...

Tailed giant Tupanvirus possesses the most complete translational apparatus of the known virosphere

Nature Communications, 2018
Giant viruses are the largest viruses of the known virosphere and their genetic analysis can provide insights into virus evolution. Here, the authors discover Tupanvirus, a unique giant virus that has an unusually long tail and contains the largest ...

Sputnik virophage disrupts the transcriptional regulation of its host giant virus

Journal of Virology
Sputnik virophages are small double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) viruses that replicate only inside host amoebae infected with giant dsDNA viruses, mimiviruses.

A protein of the metallo-hydrolase/oxidoreductase superfamily with both beta-lactamase and ribonuclease activity is linked with translation in giant viruses

Scientific Reports, 2020
Proteins with a metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) fold have been largely studied in bacteria in the framework of resistance to beta-lactams, but their spectrum of activities is broader.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

mRNA maturation in giant viruses: variation on a theme

Nucleic Acids Research, 2015
AbstractGiant viruses from the Mimiviridae family replicate entirely in their host cytoplasm where their genes are transcribed by a viral transcription apparatus. mRNA polyadenylation uniquely occurs at hairpin-forming palindromic sequences terminating viral transcripts.

Rare vasculitis types and obstetric and neonatal outcomes – A population‐based study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Vasculitis is an infrequent pathology among reproductive‐aged women. While data exists regarding pregnancy outcomes in the more common vasculitis subtypes, data is limited regarding these outcomes in rare vasculitis subtypes. We aimed to compare pregnancy and perinatal outcomes between women who suffered from rare types of vasculitis

Horizontal transfer of a 180-kbp genomic fraction among the largest viral genomes

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Viruses are generally considered tiny biological entities with small genomes; however, some dsDNA viruses, known as giant viruses, have large genomes that are comparable to those of small bacteria.
