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

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]
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.

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)
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.
