Vaccination against COVID-19 and SARS-COV-2 in people living with HIV
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and SARS-CoV-2 are almost nothing alike, but the response to the COVID-19 pandemic has much to learn from four decades of efforts against HIV and AIDS.

ACE2: from vasopeptidase to SARS virus receptor [PDF]
The zinc metallopeptidase angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the only known human homologue of the key regulator of blood pressure angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Since its discovery in 2000, ACE2 has been implicated in heart function, hypertension and diabetes, with its effects being mediated, in part, through its ability to convert ...

We introduce a nucleic acid nanoparticle (NANP) platform designed to be rrecognized by the human innate immune system in a regulated manner. By changing chemical composition while maintaining constant architectural parameters, we identify key determinants of immunorecognition enabling the rational design of NANPs with tunable immune activation profiles

Syndemic due to COVID-19 and type 2 diabetes mellitus: a dangerous interaction
Background: type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is considered an important risk factor for mortality in patients infected by respiratory viruses, included SARS-CoV-2. The interaction of both diseases can be considered as a syndemic.Objective: to describe the

SARS-CoV-2 has RNA as the genome, which makes the virus more prone to mutations. Occasionally, mutations help a virus to cross the species barrier. SARS-CoV-2 infections in humans and minks (Neovison vison) are examples of zoonotic spillover.

A dynamic nomenclature proposal for SARS-CoV-2 lineages to assist genomic epidemiology
The ongoing pandemic spread of a new human coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which is associated with severe pneumonia/disease (COVID-19), has resulted in the generation of tens of thousands of virus genome sequences.

A multivalent antiviral platform based on honeycomb‐shaped DNA nanostructures (HC–Urumin) is developed to enhance the potency and breadth of the host defense peptide Urumin. Through spatially patterned trimeric presentation, HC–Urumin disrupts influenza A virus entry, improves cell viability, and reduces disease severity in vivo‐offering a modular and ...
