1Monkeypox virus:a re-emergent threat to humans显示文摘Human monkeypox(MPX)is a rare zoonotic infection characterized by smallpox-like signs and symptoms.It is caused by monkeypox virus(MPXV),a double stranded DNA virus belonging to the genus Orthopoxvirus.MPX was first identified in 1970 and mostly prevailed in the rural rainforests of Central and West Africa in the past.Outside Africa,MPX was reported in the United Kingdom,the USA,Israel,and Singapore.In 2022,the resurgence of MPX in Europe and elsewhere posed a potential threat to humans.MPXV was transmitted by the animals-human or human-human pathway,and the symptoms of MPXV infection are similar to that of smallpox,but in a milder form and with lower mortality(1%–10%).Although the smallpox vaccination has been shown to provide 85%protection against MPXV infection,and two anti-smallpox virus drugs have been approved to treat MPXV,there are still no specific vaccines and drugs against MPXV infection.Therefore it is urgent to take active measures including the adoption of novel anti-MPXV strategies to control the spread of MPXV and prevent MPX epidemic.In this review,we summarize the biological features,epidemiology,pathogenicity,laboratory diagnosis,and prevention and treatment strategies on MPXV.This review provides the basic knowledge for prevention and control of future outbreaks of this emerging infection.Qizan Gong Changle Wang Xia Chuai Sandra Chiu 2022Virologica Sinica2022,37,4:12

3Hetero-bivalent nanobodies provide broad-spectrum protection against SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern including Omicron显示文摘SARS-CoV-2 variants with adaptive mutations have continued to emerge,causing fresh waves of infection even amongst vaccinated population.The development of broad-spectrum antivirals is thus urgently needed.We previously developed two hetero-bivalent nanobodies(Nbs),aRBD-2-5 and aRBD-2-7,with potent neutralization activity against the wild-type(WT)Wuhan isolated SARS-CoV-2,by fusing aRBD-2 with aRBD-5 and aRBD-7,respectively.Here,we resolved the crystal structures of these Nbs in complex with the receptor-binding domain(RBD)of the spike protein,and found that aRBD-2 contacts with highly conserved RBD residues and retains binding to the RBD of the Alpha,Beta,Gamma,Delta,Delta plus,Kappa,Lambda,Omicron BA.1,and BA.2 variants.In contrast,aRBD-5 and aRBD-7 bind to less conserved RBD epitopes non overlapping with the epitope of aRBD 2,and do not show apparent binding to the RBD of some variants.However,when fused with aRBD-2,they effectively enhance the overal binding affinity.Consistently,aRBD-2-5-Fc and aRBD-2-7 Fc potently neutralized all of the tested authentic or pseudotyped viruses,incuding WT,Alpha,Beta,Gamma,Delta,and Omicron BA.1,BA.1.1 and BA.2.Furthermore,aRBD-2-5-FC provided prophylactic protection against the WT and mouse-adapted SARS CoV-2 in mice,and conferred protection against the Omicron BA.1 variant in hamsters prophylatically and therapeutically,indicating that aRBD-2-5-Fc could potentially beneft the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 caused by the emerging variants of concern.Our strategy provides new solutions in the development of broad-spectrum therapeutic antibodies for COVID-19.Huan Ma Xinghai Zhang Peiyi Zheng Peter H.Dube Weihong Zeng Shaohong Chen Qingyu Cheng Yunru Yang Yan Wu Junhui Zhou Xiaowen Hu Yan Xiang Huajun Zhang Sandra Chiu Tengchuan Jin 2022Cell Research2022,32,9:1
4A potent neutralizing antibody provides protection against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron and Delta variants via nasal delivery显示文摘Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)is still rapidly spreading worldwide.Many drugs and vaccines have been approved for clinical use show efficacy in the treatment and prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infections.However,the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern(VOCs),such as Delta(B.1.617.2)and the recently emerged Omicron(B.1.1.529),has seriously challenged the application of current therapeutics.Therefore,there is still a pressing need for identification of new broad-spectrum antivirals.Here,we further characterized a human antibody(58G6),which we previously isolated from a patient,with a broadly authentic virus-neutralizing activity that inhibits the Delta and Omicron variants with half-maximal inhibitory concentrations(ICso)of 1.69 ng/ml and 54.31 ng/ml,respectively.58G6 shows prophylactic and therapeutic effcacy in hamsters challenged with the Delta and Omicron variants through nasal delivery.Notably,a very low dosage(2 mg/kg daily)of 58G6 efficiently prevented Omicron variant replication in the lungs.These advantages may overcome the efficacy limitation of currently approved neutralizing antibodies that can be administered only by intravenous injection.In general,58G6 is a promising prophylactic and therapeutic candidate against current circulating VOCs and even future emerging mutants.To the best of our knowledge,58G6 is one of the most potent neutralizing antibodies against Omicron,with a broader spectrum than those approved for clinical use.58G6 could be developed as a nebulized therapy,which would be more cost effective and user friendly and enhance the clinical outcome comparedto thatobtainedwithdirect nasaldelivery.Xinghai Zhang Huajun Zhang Tingting Li Shaohong Chen Feiyang Luo Junhui Zhou Peiyi Zheng Shuyi Song Yan Wu Tengchuan Jin Ni Tang Aishun Jin Chengyong Yang Guofeng Cheng Rui Gong Sandra Chiu Ailong Huang 2022Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2022,7,9:1
5Ebola virus VP35 perturbs type I interferon signaling to facilitate viral replication显示文摘As one of the deadliest viruses,Ebola virus(EBOV)causes lethal hemorrhagic fevers in humans and nonhuman primates.The suppression of innate immunity leads to robust systemic virus replication of EBOV,leading to enhanced transmission.However,the mechanism of EBOV-host interaction is not fully understood.Here,we identified multiple dysregulated genes in early stage of EBOV infection through transcriptomic analysis,which are highly clustered to Jak-STAT signaling.EBOV VP35 and VP30 were found to inhibit type I interferon(IFN)signaling.Moreover,exogenous expression of VP35 blocks the phosphorylation of endogenous STAT1,and suppresses nuclear translocation of STAT1.Using serial truncated mutations of VP35,N-terminal 1–220amino acid residues of VP35 were identified to be essential for blocking on type I IFN signaling.Remarkably,VP35 of EBOV suppresses type I IFN signaling more efficiently than those of Bundibugyo virus(BDBV)and Marburg virus(MARV),resulting in stable replication to facilitate the pathogenesis.Altogether,this study enriches understanding on EBOV evasion of innate immune response,and provides insights into the interplay between filoviruses and host.Zengguo Cao Chenchen Liu Cheng Peng Yong Ran Yulin Yao Gengfu Xiao Entao Li Zixi Chen Xia Chuai Sandra Chiu 2023Virologica Sinica2023,38,6:0
6Single-dose AAV-based vaccine induces a high level of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in rhesus macaques显示文摘Dear Editor,Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)is a highly infectious respiratory disease that continues to pose a serious global public health emergency.The disease shows a high infection rate,long incubation period,and rapidly emerging variants,which have led to its rapid spread worldwide(Krammer 2020).Many vaccines have been developed for the control of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2),the virus responsible for COVID-19,including vaccines based on messenger RNA(mRNA)(Polack et al.2020),viral vectors(Zhu et al.2020),recombinant proteins(Yang et al.2020),and inactivated SARS-CoV-2(Zhang et al.2021).Dali Tong Mei Zhang Yunru Yang Han Xia Haiyang Tong Huajun Zhang Weihong Zeng Muziying Liu Yan Wu Huan Ma Xue Hu Weiyong Liu Yuan Cai Yanfeng Yao Yichuan Yao Kunpeng Liu Shifang Shan Yajuan Li Ge Gao Weiwei Guo Yun Peng Shaohong Chen Juhong Rao Jiaxuan Zhao Juan Min Qingjun Zhu Yanmin Zheng Lianxin Liu Chao Shan Kai Zhong Zilong Qiu Tengchuan Jin Sandra Chiu Zhiming Yuan Tian Xue 2023Protein & Cell2023,14,1:0
7Duration of humoral immunity from smallpox vaccination and its cross-reaction with Mpox virus显示文摘The ongoing pandemic caused by mpox virus(MPxV)has become an international public health emergency that poses a significant threat to global health.The vaccinia virus Tiantan strain(VTT)was used to vaccinate against smallpox in China 42 years ago.It is urgent to assess the level of immunity to smallpox in individuals vaccinated 43 or more years ago and evaluate their immunological susceptibility to MPxV.Entao Li Xiaoping Guo Dongxiang Hong Qizan Gong Wenyu Xie Tingting Li Jian Wang Xia Chuai Sandra Chiu 2023Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2023,8,10:0
8Omicron-specific mRNA vaccine elicits potent immune responses in mice, hamsters, and nonhuman primates显示文摘Dear Editor,Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)has infected more than 400 million people globally,resulting in millions of deaths.1 As the virus evolves,a new variant,designated as“Omicron”by the World Health Organization(SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.1.529),has led to a massive resurgence of COVID-19 cases in many regions.2 The Omicron variant is highly contagious,with a significant transmission advantage compared to prior variants.Currently,Omicron represents~95%of the new infections in the US,Europe,Brazil,South Africa,and elsewhere.3–5 The remarkable transmissibility of Omicron is likely attributable to its highly mutated spike(S)gene(more than 30 mutations),which promotes S protein binding to the cellular receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2)and allows it to escape from both humoral and cellular immunity elicited by prior infection or vaccination.6,7 Several studies show that the Omicron variant significantly affects the protection conferred by previous vaccinations including mRNA vaccines of mRNA-1273(Moderna)and BNT162b2(Pfizer BioNTech)。Yi Wu Yanqiong Shen Namei Wu Xinghai Zhang Shaohong Chen Chang Yang Junhui Zhou Yan Wu Da Chen Li Wang Chao Wang Huajun Zhang Ninuo Xia Sandra Chiu Yucai Wang 2022Cell Research2022,32,10:0
9HBV precore G1896A mutation promotes growth of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by activating ERK/MAPK pathway显示文摘Chronic hepatitis B virus(HBV)infection is one of the leading causes of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).The HBV genome is prone to mutate and several variants are closely related to the malignant transformation of liver disease.G1896A mutation(G to A mutation at nucleotide 1896)is one of the most frequently observed mutations in the precore region of HBV,which prevents HBeAg expression and is strongly associated with HCC.However,the mechanisms by which this mutation causes HCC are unclear.Here,we explored the function and molecular mechanisms of the G1896A mutation during HBV-associated HCC.G1896A mutation remarkably enhanced the HBV replication in vitro.Moreover,it increased tumor formation and inhibited apoptosis of hepatoma cells,and decreased the sensitivity of HCC to sorafenib.Mechanistically,the G1896A mutation could activate ERK/MAPK pathway to enhanced sorafenib resistance in HCC cells and augmented cell survival and growth.Collectively,our study demonstrates for the first time that the G1896A mutation has a dual regulatory role in exacerbating HCC severity and sheds some light on the treatment of G1896A mutation-associated HCC patients.Baoxin Zhao Hongxiu Qiao Yan Zhao Zhiyun Gao Weijie Wang Yan Cui Jian Li Zhanjun Guo Xia Chuai Sandra Chiu 2023Virologica Sinica2023,38,5:0
10A visual assay panel for the identification of monkeypox virus DNA belonging to the clades I and II显示文摘Dear Editor,Monkeypox virus(MPXV)is an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus belonging to the family Poxviridae,subfamily Chordopoxvirinae,and genus Orthopoxvirus(Hraib et al.,2022;Gong et al.,2022).MPXV forms Congo Basin clade(clade I)and West African clade(clade II)(Durski et al.,2018).Additionally,clade II consists of two subclades,clade IIa and clade IIb.Pei Huang Zanheng Huang Meihui Liu Yujie Bai Hongli Jin Jingbo Huang Xingqi Liu Zhenhong Guan Ming Duan Haili Zhang Yuanyuan Li Sandra Chiu Hualei Wang 2023Virologica Sinica2023,38,4:0
