A novel PCR protocol for detection and differentiation of neuropathogenic and non-neuropathogenic equid alphaherpesvirus 1 [PDF]
Equid alphaherpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) infections can have a major impact on the horse industry and equine welfare by causing abortion or respiratory or neurologic disease. A single nucleotide polymorphism (A 2254 →G 2254 ) in open reading frame (ORF) 30 ...

Understanding Enterovirus D68-Induced Neurologic Disease: A Basic Science Review
In 2014, the United States (US) experienced an unprecedented epidemic of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68)-induced respiratory disease that was temporally associated with the emergence of acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), a paralytic disease occurring predominantly ...

Combined mutations in nonstructural protein 14, envelope, and membrane proteins mitigate the neuropathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 in K18-hACE2 mice [PDF]
We previously reported that mutations outside the spike protein play a role in the attenuation of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron BA.1 variant in human ACE2 transgenic mice (K18-hACE2).

Amino acid changes accumulated in the fusion protein allow neuropathogenic measles viruses to use a broad repertoire of host factors for cell fusion triggering [PDF]
Measles virus (MeV), an enveloped RNA virus belonging to the genus Morbillivirus of the family Paramyxoviridae, is the causative agent of measles, an acute febrile illness with skin rash. MeV has two types of envelope glycoproteins: the hemagglutinin (H)

Genetic evidence for serum amyloid P component as a drug target in neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]
The mechanisms responsible for neuronal death causing cognitive loss in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and many other dementias are not known. Serum amyloid P component (SAP) is a constitutive plasma protein, which is cytotoxic for cerebral neurones and also ...
