Seroprevalence of Chikungunya and O'nyong‐nyong Viruses in Senegal, West Africa

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Arthritogenic alphaviruses such as chikungunya (CHIKV) and o'nyong‐nyong (ONNV) viruses have shown capacity to cause widespread epidemics, with recurrent and sporadic outbreaks occurring throughout sub‐Saharan Africa. We analyzed the seroprevalence for CHIKV and ONNV in 470 non‐febrile subjects from three regions in Senegal (Sindia, 2018 ...

Virucidal activity of proanthocyanidin against Mayaro virus

open access: yesAntiviral Research, 2019
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is a sublethal arbovirus transmitted by mosquitoes with possible installation of an urban cycle in the Americas. Its infection causes disabling arthralgia, and still, there is no vaccine or treatment to it. We recently investigated nearly 600 compounds by molecular docking and identified epicatechin as a potent antiviral against ...

Alphavirus nsP2: A Multifunctional Regulator of Viral Replication and Promising Target for Anti‐Alphavirus Therapies

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, Volume 35, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Alphaviruses are re‐emerging vector‐born pathogens that cause arthralgia or encephalitic diseases on a global scale. While a vaccine against chikungunya virus was recently approved, no vaccines currently exist for other alphaviruses, nor are there antiviral drugs for the treatment of alphavirus infections. Alphaviruses have positive‐strand RNA

Frequency of resistance to methicillin and other antimicrobial agents among Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from pigs and their human handlers in Trinidad [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has emerged recently worldwide in production animals, particularly pigs and veal calves, which act as reservoirs for MRSA strains for human infection.

Two Birds With One Stone: RNA Virus Strategies to Manipulate G3BP1 and Other Stress Granule Components

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Stress granules emerging during viral infection can play both pro‐ and antiviral roles. RNA viruses use various strategies to antagonize their formation, including the degradation, inhibition, or sequestration of G3BP1, a key stress granule protein. However, biochemical and structural insights into these mechanisms have been reported for only a handful

Chikungunya Virus: Unveiling Its Global Impact (2002–2024)

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an arbovirus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, has caused massive global epidemics, where it causes periodic outbreaks of febrile illness. In recent years, it has afflicted populations of Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia.

A Novel Self‐Amplifying mRNA with Decreased Cytotoxicity and Enhanced Protein Expression by Macrodomain Mutations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 43, November 20, 2024.
This research shows an example that reducing innate immunogenicity to increase payload protein expression of self‐amplifying RNA via a single mutation in the macrodomain. The mutant saRNA attenuates the activation of the double‐stranded RNA sensor as well as the downstream interferon response.

Deltas: New paradigms

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 600-636, November 2024.
This paper discusses some new paradigms concerning the origin and significance of deltas and their deposits. It proposes a broader definition of deltas that takes into account the importance of sediment‐laden fluvial discharges in controlling deltaic sedimentation.
