Dynamic ventral disc contraction is necessary for Giardia attachment and host pathology

C. Nosala, K. D. Hagen, S. L. Guest, N. A. Hilton, A. Mueller, M. Laue, C. Klotz, A. Aebischer, S. C. Dawson

This study shows Giardia's ventral disc contracts during attachment, causing host cell damage, and identifies three contraction types that reduce disc size.

The domed architecture of Giardias ventral disc is necessary for attachment and host pathogenesis

K. D. Hagen, C. Nosala, N. Hilton, A. Mueller, D. Holthaus, M. Laue, C. Klotz, A. Aebischer, S. C. Dawson

This study shows that Giardia's ventral disc, shaped by MBP, is essential for attachment and causing host epithelial barrier damage.

Serological screening in wild ruminants in Germany, 2021/22: No evidence of SARS-CoV-2, bluetongue virus or pestivirus spread but high seroprevalences against Schmallenberg virus

K. Wernike, L. Fischer, M. Holsteg, A. Aebischer, A. Petrov, K. Marquart, U. Schotte, J. Schoen, D. Hoffmann, S. Hechinger, A. Neubauer-Juric, J. Blicke, T. C. Mettenleiter, M. Beer

The paper serologically screens wild ruminants in Germany for SARS-CoV-2, bluetongue virus, pestivirus, and Schmallenberg virus, finding no evidence of spread but high seroprevalence against Schmallenberg virus and potential cross-reactivity with SARS-CoV-2.

Susceptibility of raccoon dogs for experimental SARS-CoV-2 infection

C. M. Freuling, A. Breithaupt, T. Mueller, J. Sehl, A. Balkema-Buschmann, M. Rissmann, A. Klein, C. Wylezich, D. Hoeper, K. Wernike, A. Aebischer, D. Hoffmann, V. Friedrichs, A. Dorhoi, M. Groschup, , T. C. Mettenleiter

This study shows raccoon dogs are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and can transmit it to direct contact animals, suggesting they may act as intermediate hosts.
