Polyomavirus Drives Cerebellar Lesions in AIDS Monkeys With Ataxia
Chronic SIV‐infected macaques with ataxia develop severe cerebellar lesions driven by simian polyomavirus 40 (SV40) infection. SV40 preferentially infects cerebellar granule cells, inducing pyroptosis and an aberrant proliferative state. Pyroptotic neuronal injury promotes microglial recruitment and activation, amplifying local neuroinflammation and ...

The Role of Astrocytes in the Inflammatory Response in Neurodiseases
Reactive astrocyte‐mediated pathogenic mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases Schematic representation of key astrocytic pathways contributing to pathology in the pathogenesis of AD, PD, ALS, and HD. In AD, astrocytes exhibit Aβ plaque‐associated activation characterized by GFAP/S100β upregulation, accompanied by impaired EAAT2‐mediated glutamate ...

Navigating the Zika panic [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
The epidemics of Ebola virus in West Africa and Zika virus in America highlight how viruses can explosively emerge into new territories. These epidemics also exposed how unprepared we are to handle infectious disease emergencies.

Remote Sensing for Operational Surveillance of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases
Abstract Remote sensing observations have demonstrated increasing value in identifying human risk from mosquito‐borne diseases because mosquito ecology is intrinsically tied to geophysical variables measurable by satellites. Satellite‐based monitoring of environmental conditions at varying temporal and spatial scales has extended our capacity for ...

Zika Virus IgM Detection and Neutralizing Antibody Profiles 12–19 Months after Illness Onset
Data on the duration of detectable Zika virus–specific IgM in infected persons are limited. Neutralizing antibody cross-reactivity occurs between Zika virus and related flaviviruses, but the degree to which this confounds diagnosis is uncertain.
