Seroprevalence to Hepatitis B Virus among Prisoners Taking into Account Age, HIV Status, and Injection Drug Use

open access: yesЭпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика
Relevance. Prisoners have a high risk of contracting hemocontact viral infections (including HIV, viral hepatitis B and C, etc.), which creates an additional infectious burden on the entire population living in the territory. Aims.

Bacteriophage and their potential roles in the human oral cavity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The human oral cavity provides the perfect portal of entry for viruses and bacteria in the environment to access new hosts. Hence, the oral cavity is one of the most densely populated habitats of the human body containing some 6 billion bacteria and ...

Resistome flow in global landfill systems

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Global landfill systems represent key hubs of resistome, serving as dynamic reservoirs and amplifiers through plasmid‐driven gene mobility. Waste flows and environmental pathways sustain the transboundary resistome networks, accelerating resistance dissemination across ecosystems.

Virome in the Lungs: The Role of Anelloviruses in Childhood Respiratory Diseases

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
More recently, increasing attention has been directed to exploring the function of the global virome in health and disease. Currently, by new molecular techniques, such as metagenomic DNA sequencing, the virome has been better unveiled.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Longitudinal alterations in the urinary virome of kidney transplant recipients are influenced by BK viremia and patient sex

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Little is known about the urinary virome and how it interacts with the host, particularly in renal transplant diseases. Using metagenomic sequencing, we characterized the urinary virome of 23 kidney transplant recipients longitudinally (11 BKV+ patients ...

Phages and human health: More than idle hitchhikers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect bacteria and archaea. Phages have diverse morphologies and can be coded in DNA or RNA and as single or double strands with a large range of genome sizes. With the increasing use of metagenomic sequencing

A novel kirkovirus may be associated with equine gastrointestinal disease

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Many cases of equine enterocolitis are suspected to be infectious in nature, but no pathogen is identified in many cases. Objectives Perform next‐generation sequencing on faeces collected from cases of equine enterocolitis for the presence of novel viruses and determine if an identified novel virus is associated with cases of equine

ΦCrAss001 represents the most abundant bacteriophage family in the human gut and infects Bacteroides intestinalis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
peer-reviewedCrAssphages are an extensive and ubiquitous family of tailed bacteriophages, predicted to infect bacteria of the order Bacteroidales. Despite being found in ~50% of individuals and representing up to 90% of human gut viromes, members of this
