Heterologous prime-boost-boost immunisation of Chinese cynomolgus macaques using DNA and recombinant poxvirus vectors expressing HIV-1 virus-like particles [PDF]
Background: There is renewed interest in the development of poxvirus vector-based HIV vaccines due to the protective effect observed with repeated recombinant canarypox priming with gp120 boosting in the recent Thai placebo-controlled trial.

Botswana's Seronga region saw a mass elephant die‐off potentially linked to water sources. This study analyzes Okavango Delta metagenomes, uncovering a diversity of viruses and harmful pathogens. Findings highlight the importance of understanding viral ecology in these waters and support One Health's objective in protecting human, animal, and ecosystem

Serological Immunity to Smallpox in New South Wales, Australia
The re-emergence of smallpox is an increasing and legitimate concern due to advances in synthetic biology. Vaccination programs against smallpox using the vaccinia virus vaccine ceased with the eradication of smallpox and, unlike many other countries ...

Oncolytic vaccinia virus disrupts tumor-associated vasculature in humans.
Efforts to selectively target and disrupt established tumor vasculature have largely failed to date. We hypothesized that a vaccinia virus engineered to target cells with activation of the ras/MAPK signaling pathway (JX-594) could specifically infect and

Viral metagenomic analysis reveals potential biological hazards in non‐human primates in a zoo
The investigation identifies the presence of Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), Baboon endogenous virus (BAV), Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV), and Baboon endogenous virus (BaEV) in non‐human primates (NHPs) at the Zoo, indicating potential zoonotic threats.
