The Microbiota of Evaporative Cooling Systems and the Impact of Rainwater as an Alternative Water Source

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 7, July 2026.
The substitution of tap water with rainwater for evaporate cooling systems creates no disadvantage with regard to the microbial safety and might allow a reduction of financial and resource investments. ABSTRACT Climate change and an increasing global population are supposed to cause progressive water shortages in the future.

Characteristics and Risk Factors Associated With Hospitalization and Severe Disease in Patients Aged ≥ 60 Years With Human Metapneumovirus Infection Over Three Consecutive Seasons (2021–2024) in Valladolid, Spain. The VALLAVIRUS Study

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a respiratory pathogen often underestimated in the elderly. Although studies suggest it causes around 10% of respiratory hospitalizations in the United States, national and local data remain scarce.

Incidence, Complications, and Quality of Life in Adults ≥ 60 Years Old With Laboratory‐Confirmed RSV Infections Attended in Primary Care and in Hospitals: A Study Over Three Seasons in Valladolid, Spain

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in adults ≥ 60 years significantly affects health, particularly in those with comorbidities. Despite evidence on disease burden, data on quality of life (QoL) and complications after infection remain scarce.

Polyphosphates Attenuate Interleukin‐12 Production in Macrophages Infected With Legionella pneumophila

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Legionella pneumophila infection leads to the release of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns, which recruits the adaptor protein MYD88, initiating both activating (e.g., NF‐κB) and inhibitory (e.g., PI3K/AKT) signaling pathways that regulate IL‐12 gene expression.

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 11, Page 1589-1604, June 2026.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...
