COVID-19 continues to exact a devastating global toll. Ascertaining the factors underlying differential susceptibility and prognosis following viral exposure is critical to improving public health responses. We propose that gut microbes may contribute to variation in COVID-19 outcome. We synthesise evidence for gut microbial contributions to immuni...

Babesiosis developed in a 62-year-old immunocompetent physician, who had an uneventful recovery after receiving atovaquone and azithromycin. Three years later, babesiosis developed again, and he was again successfully given treatment. Clinical and laboratory evidence were highly supportive of Babesia reinfection. Healthcare professionals should be ...

Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is a highly infectious virus that is responsible for various types of orofacial and genital infections. Two types of HSV exist i.e. HSV-1 and HSV-2, that are infecting millions of people around the world. However, no satisfactory treatment or counter-measure has yet been discovered to fight against the HSV infections. In ...

Banach et al. report a SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody along with genetic, structural, and functional features of public antibody responses targeting SARS-CoV-2. These data reveal how structural interactions with the SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain correlate with viral neutralization and demonstrate the importance of native antibody heavy:light...

There is an increasing number of case reports of COVID-19 reinfection. The mechanism of reinfection is poorly understood and evolving. Prevention of the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 for those with a serious mental illness (SMI) living in a congregate setting presents unique challenges. In this case report, we desc...
Introduction: Many potential vaccines for COVID-19 are being studied, and several studies have reported the results of these vaccines. We aimed to review the current evidence of the feasibility and effectiveness of Vaccines for COVID-19. Methods: A search was carried out utilizing the keywords in the online databases, including Scopus,Web of Scienc...

In the present study, healthy goats and sheep ( n = 5) that were confirmed negative for peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) antibodies by monoclonal antibody-based competitive ELISA and by serum neutralization test and for PPRV antigen by s-ELISA were vaccinated with Sungri/96. A quantitative study was carried out to compare the proteome of per...

Over the past few decades, researchers have become aware of the importance of non-coding RNA, which makes up the vast majority of the transcriptome. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in turn constitute the largest fraction of non-coding transcripts. Increasing evidence has been found for the crucial roles of lncRNAs in both tissue homeostasis and deve...
In recent decades, there has been a decline of the House Sparrow (Passer domesticus), mainly in European cities, and several hypotheses have been proposed that attempt to determine the causes of this rapid decline. Previous studies indicated that house sparrows were significantly negatively associated with increasing electromagnetic radiation and s...
