Immunomodulatory Role of Interferons in Viral and Bacterial Infections
Int J Mol Sci. 2023 Jun 14;24(12):10115. doi: 10.3390/ijms241210115.ABSTRACTInterferons are a group of immunomodulatory substances produced by the human immune system in response to the presence of pathogens, especially during viral and bacterial infections. Their remarkably diverse mechanisms of action help the immune system fight infections by activating hundreds of genes involved in signal transduction pathways. In this review, we focus on discussing the interplay between the IFN system and seven medically important and challenging viruses (herpes simplex virus (HSV), influenza, hepatitis C virus (HCV), lymphocytic chor...

Effect of COVID-19 Vaccination on Household Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the Omicron Era: The Vaccine Effectiveness, Networking, and Universal Safety (VENUS) study
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) B.1.1.529 (Omicron) variant was designated by the World Health Organization as a variant of concern in November 2021, and quickly became the dominant strain within the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic [1]. The Omicron variant and its subvariants have demonstrated a higher household secondary attack risk (SAR) than the previously dominant B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant [2, 3], which indicates the need for more effective measures to reduce the formation of household clusters.

SARS-CoV-2 wildlife surveillance surrounding mink farms in British Columbia, Canada
CONCLUSION: Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in escaped farmed mink is concerning and demonstrates the potential for transmission from farmed mink to wildlife, particularly given the observation of wildlife known to be susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 near infected mink farms. Combined use of physical and camera trapping contributed to the breadth of the results and is strongly recommended for future surveillance.PMID:37342314 | PMC:PMC10279410 | DOI:10.14745/ccdr.v48i06a03
