Whole gene analysis of a genotype G29P[6] human rotavirus strain identified in Central African Republic

BMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective Rotavirus A (RVA) remains the main causative agent of gastroenteritis in young children and the young of many mammalian and avian species. In this study we describe a RVA strain detected from a 6-month-old child from Central African Republic ...

Enhanced dengue vaccine virus replication and neutralizing antibody responses in immune primed rhesus macaques

npj Vaccines, 2021
Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) is suspected to influence dengue virus (DENV) infection, but the role ADE plays in vaccination strategies incorporating live attenuated virus components is less clear.

Characterization of B-cell and T-cell responses to a tetravalent dengue purified inactivated vaccine in healthy adults

npj Vaccines, 2022
The increasing global impact of dengue underscores the need for a dengue virus (DENV) vaccine. We assessed B-cell and T-cell responses following vaccination with four formulations of a tetravalent dengue purified inactivated vaccine (DPIV) in dengue ...

A comparative recombination analysis of human coronaviruses and implications for the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

Scientific Reports, 2021
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic prompts evaluation of recombination in human coronavirus (hCoV) evolution. We undertook recombination analyses of 158,118 public seasonal hCoV, SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV genome sequences using the RDP4 software. We found

Emerging viral diseases [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000
We live in an era of rapidly changing global landscapes and local environments. Viruses with RNA as their genetic material can quickly adapt to and exploit these varying conditions because of the high error rates of the virus enzymes (polymerases) that replicate their genomes.

Comprehensive virome analysis of the viral spectrum in paediatric patients diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia

Virology Journal, 2022
Background Among hospitalized children suffering from community-acquired pneumonia, Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) is one of the most common pathogens. MP often exists as a co-infection with bacteria or viruses, which can exacerbate the clinical symptoms. We

Human adenoviruses in paediatric patients with respiratory tract infections in Beijing, China

Virology Journal, 2021
Background Human adenoviruse (HAdV) is a major pathogen of paediatric respiratory tract infections (RTIs). Mutation or recombination of HAdV genes may cause changes in its pathogenicity and transmission.
