Organoid Models to Study Human Infectious Diseases
Our manuscript reviews the role of organoids as models for studying human infectious diseases, highlighting their irreplaceable contributions to drug testing and vaccine development for significant infectious diseases including HIV, ZIKV, SARS‐CoV‐2 and MPXV.

Genomic and biologic comparisons of cyprinid herpesvirus 3 strains [PDF]
Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) is the archetypal fish alloherpesvirus and the etiologic agent of a lethal disease in common and koi carp. To date, the genome sequences of only four CyHV-3 isolates have been published, but no comparisons of the biologic ...

Torque teno virus as a marker of immune status in immunocompromised patients: A systematic review
Abstract Background Torque teno virus (TTV) is not known to cause disease in humans; however, chronic inflammatory conditions and immunosuppression states can favour TTV replication. This study aimed to verify the effectiveness of TTV as an immune biomarker.

Abstract The cerebellum, a subcortical structure, is traditionally linked to sensorimotor integration and coordination, although its role in cognition and affective behavior, as well as epilepsy, is increasingly recognized. Cerebellar dysfunction in patients with epilepsy can result from genetic disorders, antiseizure medications, seizures, and seizure‐

Abstract Background Antimicrobial prophylaxis for elective orthopaedic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in equids is a topic of debate among practitioners and can have negative detrimental effects on patients if used unnecessarily. Objectives To describe the complications with elective orthopaedic MRI of horses, mules, and donkeys under general ...

Inhibition of a viral enzyme by a small-molecule dimer disruptor. [PDF]
We identified small-molecule dimer disruptors that inhibit an essential dimeric protease of human Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) by screening an alpha-helical mimetic library.

Rainbow Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Revealed Heterogenic Replication with Dynamic Gene Expression. [PDF]
Molecular mechanisms of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) reactivation have been studied primarily by measuring the total or average activity of an infected cell population, which often consists of a mixture of both nonresponding and ...

A beta-herpesvirus with fluorescent capsids to study transport in living cells. [PDF]
Fluorescent tagging of viral particles by genetic means enables the study of virus dynamics in living cells. However, the study of beta-herpesvirus entry and morphogenesis by this method is currently limited.

Protective immune response against Rhodococcus equi: An innate immunity‐focused review
Abstract Rhodococcus equi causes pyogranulomatous pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised people. Despite decades of research efforts, no vaccine is available against this common cause of disease and death in foals. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarise the current understanding of interactions between R. equi and the host innate immune
