Lung Microbiome Diversity, Infection Dynamics, and Microbe-Mediated Cross-Protection. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenThe protective role of the lung microbiome in maintaining respiratory health by promoting immune homeostasis, pathogen exclusion, and barrier integrity. Diverse microbial communities regulate immune maturation, enhance epithelial defenses, and contribute to antiviral responses, collectively preventing pathogen colonization and sustaining a balanced ...

Extracellular Vesicles Released by Picornavirus-Infected Cells Modify Antiviral Immune Cell Responses. [PDF]
J Extracell VesiclesABSTRACT Naked viruses of the family Picornaviridae commonly spread via lysis of infected cells. Recent studies indicate that, prior to cell lysis, naked viruses are packaged and released inside extracellular vesicles (EVs). This has been considered a pro‐viral mechanism because EV membranes protect enclosed virions from neutralizing antibodies.

Persistence of Infectivity of Different Enteroviruses on a Surrogate Fomite: Correlation with Clinical Case Incidence [PDF]
PathogensEnteroviruses of the Picornaviridae family are transmitted primarily by the fecal–oral route. Transmission may occur following hand contact with contaminated fomites and subsequent ingestion of virus conveyed to the mouth by the contaminated hand.

A tortoise-infecting picornavirus expands the host range of the family Picornaviridae [PDF]
Archives of Virology, 2015 While picornaviruses can cause diseases in many mammals, little is known of their host range for replication in non-mammalian vertebrates. Here, a picornavirus in liver and kidney tissues from diseased Sulawesi tortoises (Indotestudo forsteni) was genetically characterized.

A comparative analysis of parechovirus protein structures with other picornaviruses
Open Biology, 2021 Parechoviruses belong to the genus Parechovirus within the family Picornaviridae and are non-enveloped icosahedral viruses with a single-stranded RNA genome. Parechoviruses include human and animal pathogens classified into six species. Those that infect
