Comparative virology and pathology of Monkeypox virus in Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6, and BALB/c mice: A framework for preclinical model selection

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study compared monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection in three small animal models: Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6 mice, and BALB/c mice. Following intraperitoneal inoculation, Syrian hamsters exhibited the highest susceptibility, with rapid systemic viral dissemination, elevated splenic and renal viral burdens, and severe histopathological damage, followed ...

Spherical Nucleic Acid Stabilized Cage Type Three‐Dimensional Electrochemiluminescence Probe for Sensitive and Amplification‐Free Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases

Exploration, EarlyView.
This work developed a spherical nucleic acid stabilized cage‐type 3D electrochemiluminescence reporter probe for amplification‐free and ultrasensitive detection of pathogenic. Furthermore, a hand‐held detection device was designed, and we established a straightforward workflow enabling sample to answer within 15 min.
