Zika virus infections in pregnancy: epidemics and case management
Zika virus is an RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family, and is primarily transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Only a small number of cases had been described until 2007 when the first major Zika virus outbreak occurred on Yap Island, Micronesia ...

Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.

The Role of Natural Killer (NK) Cells in Dengue Virus Infection: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background and Aims In the innate immune response, natural Killer (NK) cells have a significant role in protection against viral infections, including the Dengue virus (DENV). NK cells identify and eliminate virus‐infected cells through diverse mechanisms, such as cytokine production, cytolytic activity, and antibody‐dependent cellular ...

OncoVV‑shHSP70, a vaccinia virus silencing HSP70, demonstrated potent antitumor efficacy in colorectal cancer cell lines, as well as in syngeneic, xenograft, and humanized mouse models. In cell lines, oncoVV‑shHSP70 promoted viral oncolysis and cytokine production through a self‑reinforcing cycle of ROS‑autophagy. In both CT26 and SW620‑humanized mouse

Advancing Antiviral Design: Integrating Natural Products, Computation and Targeted Delivery
A stepwise translational framework linking natural‐product discovery, computational prioritisation, experimental validation, lead optimisation and targeted delivery is proposed to advance antiviral design. ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic highlighted the role of rapid viral mutation and global connectivity in accelerating viral emergence and spread ...

Abstract The Qualified Presumption of Safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of knowledge and safety of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.
