Hemagglutinin Stability and Its Impact on Influenza A Virus Infectivity, Pathogenicity, and Transmissibility in Avians, Mice, Swine, Seals, Ferrets, and Humans

Viruses, 2021
Genetically diverse influenza A viruses (IAVs) circulate in wild aquatic birds. From this reservoir, IAVs sporadically cause outbreaks, epidemics, and pandemics in wild and domestic avians, wild land and sea mammals, horses, canines, felines, swine ...

Lost in transmission…? [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2017
Parasites and pathogens (hereafter referred to collectively as parasites) can have devastating consequences for the individuals they infect, with Ebola and Zika being (at the time of writing) only the most recent examples in a very long list.

Adverse outcomes among pregnant women with COVID‐19 according to hospitalization status: A prospective individual participant data meta‐analysis in Europe and North America

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Understanding the varied impact of COVID‐19 severity on pregnancy outcomes is crucial for informed clinical management and targeted interventions. Objective To evaluate the impact of COVID‐19 on pregnancy outcomes, distinguishing between pregnant women managed in primary care and those requiring hospitalization.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Reflection–transmission algebras [PDF]

Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 2003
Inspired by factorized scattering from delta-type impurities in (1+1)-dimensional space-time, we propose and analyse a generalization of the Zamolodchikov-Faddeev algebra. Distinguished elements of the new algebra, called reflection and transmission generators, encode the particle-impurity interactions.

Antibiotic Remodeling of the Gut Microbiota Impairs Host Resistance to Secondary Infection

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Gut microbial dynamics induced by four antibiotics, revealed distinct taxonomic and functional shifts. Vancomycin‐perturbed bacteriomes were proven to promote pathogen resistance to antibiotic treatment. Metronidazole‐treated mice showed pronounced Salmonella translocation to hepatic tissue, and altered Enterococcus avium populations modulated host ...
