Mashup Score: 4Influenza virus and SARS-CoV-2: pathogenesis and host responses in the respiratory tract - 4 year(s) ago
In this Review, Schultz-Cherry, Thomas and colleagues discuss the pathogenesis of influenza virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the human respiratory tract, the contribution of the host response to severe disease, epithelial repair mechanisms following infection, and current and potential future therapies for influenza virus and SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Mashup Score: 2Fooling the coronavirus proofreading machinery - 4 year(s) ago
The first proofreading protein identified in RNA viruses might lead to new therapeutics against coronaviruses.

Wanted to add to this thread on how vaccines cover variants (see above, T cells) to explain why we are unlikely to need yearly boosters. #1 - vaccines cover variants. As cases come down, less chance virus to mutate; #2- coronavirus doesn't mutate readily https://t.co/gUgZvOwhc5

Mashup Score: 22Transmissibility and transmission of respiratory viruses - 4 year(s) ago
In this Review, Leung provides an overview of the transmissibility and modes of transmission of respiratory viruses, the viral, host and environmental determinants of transmission, and common non-pharmaceutical interventions for mitigating respiratory virus transmission. She also discusses the recent controversies over aerosol transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2…

Excellent new review of what we know about transmissibility and transmission of respiratory viruses (would also have been good if it had been published a year ago) https://t.co/MkMalmaM4t by @nancyleung_hk @NatureRevMicro Access also https://t.co/uaUZ42b3IQ https://t.co/3wADlQ48Bs

Mashup Score: 3
Toxoplasmosis caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii is a common opportunistic infection with high mortality in individuals who are immunocompromised, most commonly due to reactivation of infection in the central nervous system (CNS). In this Review, Sibley and colleagues explore the interaction between host immune defences and parasite virulence factors with emphasis on bradyzoite…

Coronavirus polymerases have strong proofreading capability, leading to lower mutational rates than other RNA viruses. Does happen (there have been amino acid changes across spike protein all along) but not quickly. Too many mutations disables virus https://t.co/gUgZvOwhc5

Mashup Score: 2New filovirus disease classification and nomenclature - 4 year(s) ago
The recent large outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in Western Africa resulted in greatly increased accumulation of human genotypic, phenotypic and clinical data, and improved our understanding of the spectrum of clinical manifestations. As a result, the WHO disease classification of EVD underwent major revision.

For those interested in naming of filoviruses and new suggested nomenclature, I was part of the VERY big effort for new designation a few years back (along with many others in my twitter feed). https://t.co/siilOVV5qJ
