Alzheimer's Disease as A Viral Infectious Disease: Revisiting the Infectious Hypothesis
Ageing Res Rev. 2023 Sep 11:102068. doi: 10.1016/j.arr.2023.102068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlzheimer's disease (AD) represents the most frequent type of dementia in elderly people. Two major forms of the disease exist: sporadic - the causes of which have not yet been fully understood - and familial - inherited within families from generation to generation, with a clear autosomal dominant transmission of mutations in Presenilin 1 (PSEN1), 2 (PSEN2) or Amyloid Precursors Protein (APP) genes. The main hallmark of AD consists of extracellular deposits of amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide and intracellular deposits of the hyper...

Inflammasome activation by SARS-CoV-2 and its participation in COVID-19 exacerbation
Curr Opin Immunol. 2023 Sep 11;84:102387. doi: 10.1016/j.coi.2023.102387. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCOVID-19 is an infectious and inflammatory disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2) that might progress to severe illness in humans, characterized by excessive pulmonary and systemic inflammation. Exacerbated production of inflammatory cytokines and cell death contributes to disease aggravation and the inflammasomes take a central stage in this process. Activation of the NLRP3 has been demonstrated in macrophages and monocytes infected in vitro, in mouse models of infection, and in c...

Hippocampal alterations after SARS-CoV-2 infection: a systematic review
Behav Brain Res. 2023 Sep 11:114662. doi: 10.1016/j.bbr.2023.114662. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSARS-CoV-2 infection produces a wide range of symptoms. Some of the structural changes caused by the virus in the nervous system are found in the medial temporal lobe, and several neuropsychological sequelae of COVID-19 are related to the function of the hippocampus. The main objective of the systematic review is to update and further analyze the existing evidence of hippocampal and related cortices' structural and functional alterations due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Both clinical and preclinical studies that used different me...

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...

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...

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...

Obtaining a high titer of polyclonal antibodies from rats to the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein and its N- and C-terminal domains for diagnostic test development
J Immunol Methods. 2023 Sep 11:113558. doi: 10.1016/j.jim.2023.113558. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSevere Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an enveloped, plus-stranded RNA virus responsible for the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Patients infected with COVID-19 may be asymptomatic or have symptoms ranging from mild manifestations to severe cases of the disease that could lead to death. The SARS-CoV-2 genome encodes 4 structural proteins, including the Spike protein (S), the Nucleocapsid protein (N), membrane protein (M) and, the envelope (E). The N protein forms a major component of the ribonu...

Plasma proteomics show altered inflammatory and mitochondrial proteins in patients with neurologic symptoms of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection
Brain Behav Immun. 2023 Sep 11:S0889-1591(23)00253-2. doi: 10.1016/j.bbi.2023.08.022. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPersistent symptoms of COVID-19 survivors constitute long COVID syndrome, also called post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC). Neurologic manifestations of PASC (Neuro-PASC) are particularly debilitating, long lasting, and poorly understood. To gain insight into the pathogenesis of PASC, we leveraged a well-characterized group of Neuro-PASC (NP) patients seen at our Neuro-COVID-19 clinic who had mild acute COVID-19 and never required hospitalization, to investigate their plasma proteome. Using the ...
