Impact of SARS-CoV-2-Related Hygiene Measures on Community-Acquired Respiratory Virus Infections in Lung Transplant Recipients in Switzerland
Conclusions: We observed a significant decline in CARV infections in the Swiss lung transplant cohort during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. These results suggest a relevant impact of hygiene measures when implemented in the population due to the COVID-19 pandemic on the incidence of CARV infections.PMID:37629763 | PMC:PMC10456728 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59081473

Age-specific severity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in February 2020 to June 2021 in the Netherlands
CONCLUSION: Whereas the increase in severity of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 with age remained stable, the risk of death upon infection decreased over time. A significant drop in risk of death among elderly coincided with the introduction of COVID-19 vaccination.PMID:37621921 | PMC:PMC10444602 | DOI:10.1111/irv.13174

Discovery of a potent inhibitor targeting the cap-binding domain of the PB2 subunit of influenza RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2023 Aug 12;678:97-101. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.08.027. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInfluenza pandemics have emerged as a significant global public health and security concern. PB2, a crucial subunit of the influenza RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP), has been identified as a promising target for influenza treatment. We herein report the discovery of a potent novel PB2 inhibitor, 7-51A, with a KD value of 1.64 nM as determined by ITC. The high activity of 7-51A was elucidated by the co-crystal structure of the PB2-7-51A complex, and comparative analysis revealed unique interactions that had...

< i > TFOFinder < /i > : Python program for identifying purine-only double-stranded stretches in the predicted secondary structure(s) of RNA targets
by Atara Neugroschl, Irina E. Catrina
Nucleic acid probes are valuable tools in biology and chemistry and are indispensable for PCR amplification of DNA, RNA quantification and visualization, and downregulation of gene expression. Recently, triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFO) have received increased attention due to their improved selectivity and sensitivity in recognizing purine-rich double-stranded RNA regions at physiological pH by incorporating backbone and base modifications. For example, triplex-forming peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomers have been used for imaging a structured RNA in cells and inhibiting influe...

Limited Outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Influenza A(H5N1) in Herring Gull Colony, Canada, 2022
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Aug 24;29(10). doi: 10.3201/eid2910.230536. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn summer 2022, highly pathogenic influenza A(H5N1) virus reached the herring gull (Larus argentatus subspecies smithsonianus) breeding colony on Kent Island, New Brunswick, Canada. Real-time monitoring revealed a self-limiting outbreak with low mortality. Proactive seabird surveillance is crucial for monitoring such limited outbreaks, protecting seabirds, and tracing zoonotic transmission routes.PMID:37619593 | DOI:10.3201/eid2910.230536

Characterization of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in lyophilized plasma prepared with amotosalen-UVA pathogen reduction
CONCLUSIONS: The antibody activity in pooled pathogen-reduced lyophilized CCPs demonstrated minimal impact due to pathogen reduction treatment and lyophilization.PMID:37615329 | DOI:10.1111/trf.17506

Interspecies Transmission of Swine Influenza A Viruses and Human Seasonal Vaccine-Mediated Protection Investigated in Ferret Model
Emerg Infect Dis. 2023 Sep;29(9):1798-1807. doi: 10.3201/eid2909.230066.ABSTRACTWe investigated the infection dynamics of 2 influenza A(H1N1) virus isolates from the swine 1A.3.3.2 (pandemic 2009) and 1C (Eurasian, avian-like) lineages. The 1C-lineage virus, A/Pavia/65/2016, although phylogenetically related to swine-origin viruses, was isolated from a human clinical case. This strain infected ferrets, a human influenza model species, and could be transmitted by direct contact and, less efficiently, by airborne exposure. Infecting ferrets and pigs (the natural host) resulted in mild or inapparent clinical signs comparable ...
