Exceptional Clinical Resistance and Variable Reservoir Competence [PDF]
Cowpox virus (CPXV) is a zoonotic virus and endemic in wild rodent populations in Eurasia. Serological surveys in Europe have reported high prevalence in different vole and mouse species.

Organoid Models to Study Human Infectious Diseases
Our manuscript reviews the role of organoids as models for studying human infectious diseases, highlighting their irreplaceable contributions to drug testing and vaccine development for significant infectious diseases including HIV, ZIKV, SARS‐CoV‐2 and MPXV.

Effects of georeferencing effort on mapping monkeypox case distributions and transmission risk [PDF]
Background Maps of disease occurrences and GIS-based models of disease transmission risk are increasingly common, and both rely on georeferenced diseases data.

Diagnostic electron microscopy in human infectious diseases – Methods and applications
Abstract Diagnostic electron microscopy (EM) is indispensable in all cases of infectious diseases which deserve or profit from the detection of the entire pathogen (i.e. the infectious unit). The focus of its application has shifted during the last decades from routine diagnostics to diagnostics of special cases, emergencies and the investigation of ...

Conservation and Variation in Orthopoxvirus Genome Structure
Orthopoxvirus DNA from representative strains of rabbitpox, vaccinia, monkeypox, variola, cowpox and ectromelia viruses was analysed by cleavage with restriction endonucleases HindIII, XhoI or SmaI. Genome mol. wt. vary from about 120 x 10(6) for rabbitpox to about 145 x 10(6) for cowpox.

Co-Circulating Monkeypox and Swinepox Viruses, Democratic Republic of the Congo, 2022
In September 2022, deaths of pigs manifesting pox-like lesions caused by swinepox virus were reported in Tshuapa Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo. Two human mpox cases were found concurrently in the surrounding community.

A zoonotic orthopoxvirus known as monkeypox inadvertently produces a smallpox-like illness in humans but with far fewer fatalities. This infection is indigenous to most parts of the African continent, with outbreaks throughout the Western World linked to

(+)‐Camphor and (−)‐borneol derivatives as potential anti‐orthopoxvirus agents
Although the World Health Organisation had announced that smallpox was eradicated over 40 years ago, the disease and other related pathogenic poxviruses such as monkeypox remain potential bioterrorist weapons and could also re‐emerge as natural ...

A retrospective study of the orthopoxvirus molecular evolution
The data on the structure of conserved genes of the Old and New World orthopoxviruses and unclassified Yoka poxvirus were used for a Bayesian dating of their independent evolution. This reconstruction estimates the time when an orthopoxvirus ancestor was transferred to the North American continent as approximately 50 thousand years ago (TYA) and allows
