Dispersal of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Driven by Historical European Trade in the South Pacific

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a globally distributed bacterial pathogen whose population structure has largely been shaped by the activities of its obligate human host.

A Narrative Review on the Recent Insights Into the Pathogenicity and Potential Role of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS‐CoV) in the Emergence of “Disease X”

Health Science Reports, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Following the end of the COVID‐19 global emergency, concern has shifted to “Disease X,” a hypothetical, highly transmissible, and deadly pathogen, and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS‐CoV) is a prime candidate for this. This review explores its epidemiology, mutations, transmission, and potential to become

Exploring Evolutionary and Transmission Dynamics of HIV Epidemic in Serbia: Bridging Socio-Demographic With Phylogenetic Approach

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Previous molecular studies of Serbian HIV epidemic identified the dominance of subtype B and presence of clusters related HIV-1 transmission, in particular among men who have sex with men (MSM).

South‐to‐Southeast Expansion of HIV‐1 Subtype C in Brazil

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT HIV‐1 group M subtype C (HIV‐1C) is the predominant genetic variant in southern Brazil but has been sparsely detected in other regions of the country. Our study aimed to identify HIV‐1C transmission links across Brazil using phylogenetic reconstruction and to infer trends in geographical patterns and dissemination beyond the southern region ...

Natural selection favoring more transmissible HIV detected in United States molecular transmission network. [PDF]

, 2019
HIV molecular epidemiology can identify clusters of individuals with elevated rates of HIV transmission. These variable transmission rates are primarily driven by host risk behavior; however, the effect of viral traits on variable transmission rates is ...

Fighting Antibiotic Resistance: Insights Into Human Barriers and New Opportunities

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 6, June 2025.
Antibiotic resistance is a public health issue leading to the emergence of multi‐resistant bacteria. Human‐dependent factors are now driving the increase of resistance, notably through antibiotic misuse in human and animal health and environmental pollution.

Mitogenomes of museum specimens provide new insight into species classification and recently reduced diversity of highly endangered Nomascus gibbons

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 674-684, May 2025.
Our findings reveal that the western black crested gibbon (Nomascus concolor) did not divide into different subspecies, and the relatively low level of genetic diversity emphasizes the importance of monitoring this indicator for vulnerable wildlife.
