Epigenetic changes and serotype-specific interferon-responses of lung epithelial cells in late post-influenza pneumococcal pneumonia

This study investigates how IAV infection alters the transcriptional and epigenetic responses of lung epithelial cells to pneumococcal serotypes, revealing serotype-specific interferon responses and epigenetic changes.

Validation of the Early Warning and Response System (EWARS) for dengue outbreaks: Evidence from the national vector control program in Mexico

This study evaluates the Early Warning and Response System (EWARS) for dengue outbreaks in Mexico, finding that non-outbreak districts had higher vector control coverage and earlier responses compared to outbreak districts.

Rapid SARS-CoV-2 Adaptation to Available Cellular Proteases

This study shows SARS-CoV-2 adapts to Vero E6 cells by losing the furin cleavage motif in spike protein, but retains wildtype sequences, enabling reverse adaptation when passaged on human lung cells.

SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing human recombinant antibodies selected from pre-pandemic healthy donors binding at RBD-ACE2 interface

The paper identifies potent SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies from pre-pandemic human donors that bind the RBD-ACE2 interface, showing high neutralization efficacy in vitro.
