Ophthalmic manifestations of monkeypox infection
After the global COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an alarming concern with the monkeypox (mpox) outbreak, which has affected more than 110 countries worldwide. Monkeypox virus is a doublestranded DNA virus of the genus Orthopox of the Poxviridae family,

The dynamics of natural Plasmodium falciparum infections. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Natural immunity to Plasmodium falciparum has been widely studied, but its effects on parasite dynamics are poorly understood. Acquisition and clearance rates of untreated infections are key elements of the dynamics of malaria, but estimating

Small Hero with Great Powers: Vaccinia Virus E3 Protein and Evasion of the Type I IFN Response
Poxviridae have developed a plethora of strategies to evade innate and adaptive immunity. In this review, we focused on the vaccinia virus E3 protein, encoded by the E3L gene. E3 is present within the Chordopoxvirinae subfamily (with the exception of the

Decoding sequence recognition code of nucleic acid‐binding proteins of human‐infecting DNA viruses
Human‐infecting DNA viruses remain major health threats, yet the DNA‐recognition mechanisms of their nucleic acid‐binding proteins (NBPs) are poorly understood. Here, we systematically profiled 103 viral NBPs from human‐infecting DNA viruses, with three NBPs from non‐human‐infecting DNA viruses as controls, using high‐throughput screening.

ABSTRACT Since 2022, human monkeypox virus (hMPXV) has emerged in non‐endemic regions, including Thailand. However, the genomic dynamics and clinical correlates of local transmission remain incompletely defined. Whole‐genome sequencing was performed on hMPXV from 16 patients in Thailand (2023–2024) using targeted amplicon NGS.

Serological Evidence of Orthopoxvirus Infection in Neotropical Primates in Brazil
The genus Orthopoxvirus (OPXV) of the family Poxviridae comprises several viruses that are capable of infecting a wide range of hosts. One of the most widespread OPXVs is the Vaccinia virus (VACV), which circulates in zoonotic cycles in South America ...
