| 1 | Murine model of acute myocarditis and cerebral cortical neuron edema induced by coxsackievirus B4显示文摘Globally, coxsackievirus B4(CV-B4) has been continuously isolated and evidence suggests an association with the development of pancreatitis and type I diabetes. In addition, CV-B4 is also associated with myocarditis and severe central nervous system(CNS) complications, which remain poorly studied and understood. In the present study, we established an Institute for Cancer Research(ICR) mouse model of CV-B4 infection and examined whether CV-B4 infection resulted in a predisposition to myocarditis and CNS infection. We found high survival in both the treatment and control group, with no significant differences in clinical outcomes observed. However, pathological lesions were evident in both brain and heart tissue of the CV-B4-infected mice. In addition, high viral loads were found in the neural and cardiac tissues as early as 2 days post infection. Expressions of IFN-γ and IL-6 in sera were significantly higher in CV-B4-infected mice compared to uninfected negative controls, suggesting the involvement of these cytokines in the development of histopathological lesions. Our murine model successfully reproduced the acute myocarditis and cerebral cortical neuron edema induced by CV-B4, and may be useful for the evaluation of vaccine candidates and potential antivirals against CV-B4 infection. | zhao-peng dong qian wang zhen-jie zhang michael j.carr dong li wei-feng shi | 2018 | Zoological Research2018,39,1: | 3 |
| 2 | The Asian Lineage of Zika Virus: Transmission and Evolution in Asia and the Americas显示文摘Since first isolation in 1947 from the Zika forest in Uganda, Zika virus(ZIKV) has been principally known as a benign agent associated with sporadic human infections in a restricted number of African countries. However, during 2015–2016,an Asian lineage of ZIKV caused an unprecedentedly large outbreak in the Americas and sizeable numbers of exported cases across the globe. In this review, we critically appraise the recent advances in molecular epidemiological studies of ZIKV performed to date, and we highlight the pivotal role played by genomic surveillance in elucidating the origins,dissemination and evolution of the Asian lineage of ZIKV in Asia and in the Americas. | Tao Hu Juan Li Michael J.Carr Sebastián Duchêne Weifeng Shi | 2019 | Virologica Sinica2019,34,1: | 3 |
| 3 | Seroprevalence of influenza viruses in Shandong,Northern China during the COVID-19 pandemic显示文摘Nonpharmaceutical interventions(NPIs)have been commonly deployed to prevent and control the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19),resulting in a worldwide decline in influenza prevalence.However,the influenza risk in China warrants cautious assessment.We conducted a cross-sectional,seroepidemiological study in Shandong Province,Northern China in mid-2021.Hemagglutination inhibition was performed to test antibodies against four influenza vaccine strains.A combination of descriptive and meta-analyses was adopted to compare the seroprevalence of influenza antibodies before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.The overall seroprevalence values against A/H1N1pdm09,A/H3N2,B/Victoria,and B/Yamagata were 17.8%(95%CI 16.2%–19.5%),23.5%(95%CI 21.7%–25.4%),7.6%(95%CI 6.6%–8.7%),and 15.0(95%CI 13.5%–16.5%),respectively,in the study period.The overall vaccination rate was extremely low(2.6%).Our results revealed that antibody titers in vaccinated participants were significantly higher than those in unvaccinated individuals(P<0.001).Notably,the meta-analysis showed that antibodies against A/H1N1pdm09 and A/H3N2 were significantly low in adults after the COVID-19 pandemic(P<0.01).Increasing vaccination rates and maintaining NPIs are recommended to prevent an elevated influenza risk in China. | Chuansong Quan Zhenjie Zhang Guoyong Ding Fengwei Sun Hengxia Zhao Qinghua Liu Chuanmin Ma Jing Wang Liang Wang Wenbo Zhao Jinjie He Yu Wang Qian He Michael J.Carr Dayan Wang Qiang Xiao Weifeng Shi | 2022 | Frontiers of Medicine2022,16,6: | 1 |
| 4 | Genitourinary melanoma:An overview for the clinician显示文摘Genitourinary (GU) melanoma is a rare presentation of melanoma accounting for approximately 0.5% of all melanomas.GU melanomas include primary melanomas of the vulva,vagina,uterine cervix,ovary,penis,scrotum,urethra,bladder,ureter,and kidney.These melanomas are often diagnosed in advanced stages and stigma is thought to contribute to delays in presentation.As the likely diagnosing provider,it is imperative that dermatologists,urologists,and gynecologists are aware of these uncommon sites of presentation.While there have been major advances in the treatment of melanomas as a whole in the last 10 years,their applications to GU melanomas have often been overlooked.GU melanomas have not been included in many of the major phase II clinical trials which brought contemporary advanced treatments to market and the prognoses for GU melanomas remain poor.Due to the rarity of GU melanomas,much of the literature provides gener alized recommendations across multiple different organs affected by GU melanomas or omits certain topics,making it difficult to appreciate the funda-mentals of the individual presentations.This review aimed to provide background information on the pathogenesis and epidemiology of the different sites of GU melanomas and categorize data specific to the presentation,staging,treatment,and prognosis of each type of GU melanoma to guide the clinician.It was also meant to encourage a multidisciplinary approach to the management of these patients as it spans the expertise of surgical oncologists,medical oncologists,radiation oncologist,dermatologists,urologists,and gynecologists. | Danielle K.DePalo Kelly M.Elleson Michael J.Carr Philippe E.Spiess Jonathan S.Zager | 2022 | Asian Journal of Urology2022,9,4: | 0 |
