Characterization of environmental and clinical surveillance inputs to support prospective integrated modeling of the polio endgame. [PDF]
National, regional, and global poliovirus surveillance needs continue to expand and evolve. The 1988 global resolution to eradicate polio necessitated the creation and support for a global poliovirus surveillance system able to identify poliovirus ...

Sporadic detection of vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 using next-generation sequencing in Canadian wastewater in August of 2022 [PDF]
In July 2022, an unvaccinated young adult living in Rockland County, New York became paralyzed due to a vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (VDPV2) infection that was internationally transmitted. Wastewater surveillance in New York State uncovered VDPV2 in

Excretion and clearance of Sabin-like type 3 poliovirus in a child diagnosed with severe combined immunodeficiency [PDF]
Children with primary immunodeficiency disorder (PID) are at higher risk of developing vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis (VAPP) or vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPV) infection when inadvertently expose to poliovirus vaccine, oral (OPV). A pilot

Community surveillance after detection of poliovirus in the environment in London, United Kingdom, October 2022 to April 2023 [PDF]
Background Vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPVs) continue to circulate internationally, causing sporadic cases and outbreaks of paralytic polio in countries certified as polio-free.

Direct detection of polioviruses using a recombinant poliovirus receptor.
Polioviruses are positive-sense, single-stranded RNA picornaviruses and the principal cause of poliomyelitis. Global poliovirus surveillance has relied on poliovirus isolation in cells, which may take a minimum of 10 days, involves maintaining two cell ...

Deconvolving mutational patterns of poliovirus outbreaks reveals its intrinsic fitness landscape. [PDF]
Vaccination has essentially eradicated poliovirus. Yet, its mutation rate is higher than that of viruses like HIV, for which no effective vaccine exists.

Inhibition of translation by poliovirus: Inactivation of a specific initiation factor [PDF]
Translation of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) mRNA, like host mRNA translation, is inhibited in cells infected with poliovirus. To study the mechanism of poliovirus-induced inhibition of protein synthesis, we prepared extracts from poliovirus-infected ...
