A novel genotyping system based on site polymorphism on spike gene reveals the evolutionary pathway of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
This study focuses on porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a highly virulent and rapidly evolving coronavirus threatening global swine production. We established a novel genotype system of PEDV targeting site‐specific polymorphisms in the spike (S) protein.

Identification of potential SARS‐CoV‐2 genomic regions representing hallmarks for adaptation to different hosts

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
The k‐mer‐based pipeline, namely the Pathogen Origin Recognition Tool using Enriched K‐mers (PORT‐EK) identifies genomic regions enriched in the respective hosts after the comparison of multi‐genomes of isolates between different host species. The enriched k‐mer counts, which may serve as a potential marker, enable the classification and prediction of ...

MERS-CoV: An Epidemic Whirlwind

Biology and Medicine, 2016
Corona virus as a Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) considered being a new complicated disease; it infects the epithelial cells in the respiratory and/or intestinal tracts, thus causing disease in epidemic proportions. The situation is exacerbated by either a short incubation period between 2-7 days or between 12-14 days.

Genetic and Inflammatory Signatures Associated With Worse Prognosis in Hospitalized Patients With Severe SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection With and Without Diabetes

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR‐CoV‐2) presents with a diverse symptomology, ranging from asymptomatic to severe disease, but the mechanism of risk factors such as diabetes remains unelucidated. The current retrospective cohort study of 182 patients, with and without COVID‐19 and diabetes, analyzed leftover blood specimens

Long‐Term Sequelae of COVID‐19: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Symptoms 3 Years Post‐SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The symptoms of long COVID are well‐documented. However, the long‐term effects beyond 2 years remain poorly understood due to a lack of data. This systematic review and meta‐analysis examined the prevalence of persistent symptoms in COVID‐19 survivors 3 years following initial SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
