Pharma - manufacturing: the unappreciated and overlooked indispensable skill
Curr Opin Immunol. 2023 Sep 11;84:102385. doi: 10.1016/j.coi.2023.102385. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe process of vaccine production, manufacturing, is time-intensive, complex, expensive, and highly technical, requiring close coordination and collaboration among multiple companies with different inputs, from active pharmaceutical ingredients to glass, and specializations, and with the supply chains spread across many countries. Covid-19 pandemic highlighted that neglecting and ignoring the need for a global effort in vaccine manufacturing and delivery can have alarming, and devastating, repercussions, especially when ...

Suramin inhibits SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid phosphoprotein genome packaging function
Virus Res. 2023 Sep 11:199221. doi: 10.1016/j.virusres.2023.199221. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is fading, however its etiologic agent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues posing - despite the availability of licensed vaccines - a global health threat, due to the potential emergence of vaccine-resistant SARS-CoV-2 variants. This makes the development of new drugs against COVID-19 a persistent urgency and sets as research priority the validation of novel therapeutic targets within the SARS-CoV-2 proteome. Among these, a promising one is the...

Early COVID-Related pandemic impacts and subsequent opioid outcomes among persons receiving medication for opioid use disorder: a secondary data analysis of a Type-3 hybrid trial
CONCLUSIONS: Mitigating the effect of the pandemic on patients' interpersonal relationships and employment, and promoting greater infection control in opioid treatment programs, could be protective against negative opioid-related outcomes.

Impact of the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic on the sleep patterns of a Brazilian population sample
Chronobiol Int. 2023 Sep 12:1-13. doi: 10.1080/07420528.2023.2255667. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHumanitarian and health crisis have drastic effects on the physical and mental well-being of people. The COVID-19 pandemic forced many countries to impose containment measures on its population to halt the spread of the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). This aim of this study was to explore self-reported sleep quality and insomnia symptoms in a sample of the Brazilian population before and during the COVID-19 quarantine period. Our data was collected through online questionnaires, including the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, th...

CROI 2023: Summary of Basic Science Research in HIV
Top Antivir Med. 2023 Jun 30;31(4):523-528.ABSTRACTThe 2023 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) represented the first fully in-person conference since the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic began. CROI continues as the premier conference in which delegates can appraise themselves of almost every facet of HIV/AIDS research as well as emerging and re-emerging pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 and mpox. The return to an in-person format is particularly important for early-stage investigators, who were faced with challenges of advancing their independent research careers...
