Coronaviruses, pathogens with a zoonotic potential, are positive sense single-stranded RNA viruses. SARS Coronavirus-2, the cause of Covid-19 infection, is from the betacoronavirinea subfamily, which has close genomic and proteomic similarity to SARS Coronavirus-1(1). Given the genomic proximity of these two viruses, studies on SARS Coronavirus-1 can be used to control or detect SARS Coronaviru...
full textAfrican Swine Fever Virus: a new old enemy of Europe
African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious viral disease of swine with a mortality rate approaching 100 percent. African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) is a double-stranded DNA virus with a complex molecular structure. Its large genome, encoding multiple virulence factors, allows for efficient replication, which takes place predominantly in the cytoplasm of monocytes and macrophages. Also, ASFV...
full textOld friends for breakfast.
We expect patterns of disease to change in parallel with economic development, but the existence of simultaneous increases in diverse chronic inflammatory disorders came as a surprise. Developed countries have more allergic disorders, more autoimmune disease (for example Type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis) [1] and more inflammatory bowel disease (IBD; ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease)...
full textNucleoside analogs and tuberculosis: new weapons against an old enemy.
Purine and pyrimidine nucleoside and nucleotide analogs have been extensively studied as anticancer and antiviral agents. In addition to this, they have recently shown great potential against Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, the causative agent of TB. TB ranks as the tenth most common cause of death in the world. The current treatment for TB infection is limited by side effects and cost of the drugs...
