This study uses shotgun metagenomics to show that the gut microbiome of insectivorous bats remains stable during temporary managed care, with minimal changes in microbial composition.

This study compares host metabolic and signaling responses to SARS-CoV-2 variants, finding that Omicron causes a more restrained response compared to pre-Omicron variants.

This study shows that DNA-PK is a conserved DNA sensor in chickens that poxviruses evade by targeting with OPG020/OPG031 proteins, highlighting its role in innate immunity beyond mammals.

This study investigates enzalutamide's antiviral effects against seasonal coronaviruses and identifies differences in viral-androgen signaling interactions between HCoV-229E and HCoV-OC43.

This paper shows that bat influenza H17N10 can be neutralized by human antibodies and its neuraminidase N10 aids viral release without using sialic acid as a receptor.
