Chikungunya infection: First autochthonous cases in Taiwan

Meng-Yu Chen, Angela Song-En Huang, Cheng-Fen Yang, Tung-Chien Hsu, Tyz-Chen Wang, Chien-Ling Su, Mei-Chun Chang, Shih-Huan Peng, Pei-Yun Shu

Summary: The first autochthonous case and outbreak of chikungunya in Taiwan occurred during July-October 2019, with 21 confirmed cases. Genetic analysis revealed strains belonging to the East/Central/South African genotype and having high similarity with strains from imported cases from Myanmar in 2019. This event emphasized the importance of intensified surveillance and vector control measures in containing the outbreak.

Genetic diversity of imported PRRSV-2 strains, 2005-2020, Hungary

Szilvia Jakab, Eszter Kaszab, Szilvia Marton, Krisztian Banyai, Adam Balint, Imre Nemes, Istvan Szabo

Summary: This study investigated the molecular epidemiology of PRRSV-2 infections in Hungary over a span of 15 years. Two genetic lineages, L1 and L5, were identified, with L5 strains being more prevalent. Most of the L5 strains were imported from other European countries. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the epidemiology of PRRSV-2 infections and the genetic diversity of viral strains in non-endemic countries.

Summary: This study conducted molecular characterization of 104 dengue cases detected in Catalonia, northeastern Spain, from 2013 to 2018, including imported infections and the first autochthonous case in the region. All four dengue serotypes were detected in travelers, reflecting global circulation in endemic areas. The primary travel-related case of the 2018 autochthonous transmission was not identified, but molecular analysis revealed the origin of the dengue virus strain.

Dynamic Molecular Epidemiology Reveals Lineage-Associated Single-Nucleotide Variants That Alter RNA Structure in Chikungunya Virus

Thomas Spicher, Markus Delitz, Adriano de Bernardi Schneider, Michael T. Wolfinger

Summary: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an emerging Alphavirus that causes millions of human infections annually, with outbreaks in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. An interactive dataset based on over 900 publicly available CHIKV genomes has been developed, providing insights into CHIKV molecular epidemiology using Nextstrain visualization. Changes in stability and fold of RNA structures due to single nucleotide variations have been identified, suggesting alternative RNA structure formation in different CHIKV lineages.

A periodic Chikungunya model with virus mutation and transovarial transmission

Yan Wang, Yazhi Li, Lili Liu, Xianning Liu

Summary: In this paper, a dynamical model for Chikungunya with virus mutation and transovarial transmission is developed, taking into account the impact of seasonal temperature changes on disease transmission. The conditions for the persistence or extinction of the disease are determined, and the effects of different factors on disease prevalence are studied through theoretical analysis and numerical simulations.

Chemical characterization in the selection of Italian autochthonous genotypes of plum

Danilo Ceccarelli, Francesca Antonucci, Carolina Talento, Roberto Ciccoritti

Summary: The study investigated the chemical properties of seventeen plum genotypes, revealing that autochthonous genotypes have higher acidity, total phenolic content, and antioxidant activity, while widely diffused varieties have higher soluble solid content and lower acidity values. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to distinguish between the genotypes and evaluate their stability over multiple crop years. This research could help promote specific autochthonous genotypes for breeding programs.

Imported and autochthonous dengue in Spain

J. M. Herrero-Martinez, M. Sanchez-Ledesma, J. M. Ramos-Rincon

Summary: Dengue, caused by the dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, is globally the most important arboviral infection. In Spain, most cases are imported by travelers, but there have been recent cases of autochthonous transmission by local mosquitoes. Understanding this disease is crucial for early diagnosis and proper management.

Summary: This study aims to provide further insight into the evolutionary dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 by analyzing a patient with follicular lymphoma who developed a persistent infection for over 7 months. The analysis revealed the evolution of genetically similar subpopulations within the host, indicating that prolonged replication is associated with intra-host virus evolution. These findings support the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 can undergo adaptive evolution in immunocompromised patients.

Omicron Sub-Lineage BA.5 and Recombinant XBB Evasion from Antibody Neutralisation in BNT162b2 Vaccine Recipients

Martina Brandolini, Giulia Gatti, Laura Grumiro, Silvia Zannoli, Valentina Arfilli, Monica Cricca, Giorgio Dirani, Agnese Denicolo, Maria Michela Marino, Martina Manera, Andrea Mancini, Francesca Taddei, Simona Semprini, Vittorio Sambri

Summary: The recent emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants resulting from recombination has raised concerns about enhanced infectivity and immune escape. XBB, a recombinant of BA.2.10 and BA.2.75, has rapidly increased in prevalence and showed enhanced immune escape ability compared to ancestral lineage and another co-circulating variant. This study highlights the importance of monitoring immune escape and reformulating vaccines for new and forthcoming variants.

Subjects who developed SARS-CoV-2 specific IgM after vaccination show a longer humoral immunity and a lower frequency of infection

Chiara Piubelli, Alessandra Ruggiero, Lucia Calciano, Cristina Mazzi, Concetta Castilletti, Natalia Tiberti, Sara Caldrer, Matteo Verze, Silvia Stefania Longoni, Simone Accordini, Zeno Bisof, Donato Zipeto

Summary: The development of SARS-CoV-2-specific IgM after vaccination is associated with higher levels of SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing IgG. This study aims to assess whether IgM development is also associated with longer-lasting immunity. The results show that IgM development after vaccination is associated with higher levels of IgG antibodies in the short and long term, and most individuals who developed IgM antibodies did not experience infection, suggesting a lower risk of infection.

Summary: Since the first SARS-CoV-2 outbreak, mutations have changed the viral genome sequence, structure, and protein folding, leading to the onset of new variants. These alterations challenge both the clinical field and diagnostic demand due to detection failures and incomplete PCR results. Analyzing understudied genes such as N and investigating regions prone to mutation through WG-NGS can help identify new or reacquired mutations for designing robust primers.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the early immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in household contacts of COVID-19 cases. The findings showed that plasmatic IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma T-cell specific response could appear early in the absence of seroconversion, and had a higher positivity rate compared to the serological response in individuals with positive swabs.
