A Systematic Review of Evidence That Enteroviruses May Be Zoonotic Jane K Fieldhouse et al. Emerging Microbes & Infections (2018) 7:164 Emerging Microbes & Infections DOI 10.1038/s41426-018-0159-1 www.nature.com/emi REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access A systematic review of evidence that enteroviruses may be zoonotic Jane K. Fieldhouse 1,XinyeWang2, Kerry A. Mallinson1,RickW.Tsao1 and Gregory C. Gray 1,2,3 Abstract Enteroviruses infect millions of humans annually worldwide, primarily infants and children. With a high mutation rate and frequent recombination, enteroviruses are noted to evolve and change over time. Given the evidence that human enteroviruses are commonly found in other mammalian species and that some human and animal enteroviruses are genetically similar, it is possible that enzootic enteroviruses may also be infecting human populations. We conducted a systematic review of the English and Chinese literature published between 2007 and 2017 to examine evidence that enteroviruses may be zoonotic. Of the 2704 articles screened for inclusion, 16 articles were included in the final review. The review of these articles yielded considerable molecular evidence of zooanthroponosis transmission, particularly among non-human primates. While there were more limited instances of anthropozoonosis transmission, the available data support the biological plausibility of cross-species transmission and the need to conduct periodic surveillance at the human–animal interface.

In this study, hesperetin was used in a crayfish pathogen challenge to discover WSSV its effects on the innate immune system of invertebrates. The crayfish Procambarus clarkii was used as an ex- Innate immunity perimental model and challenged with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Pathogen challenge experiments Procambarus clarkii showed that hesperetin treatment significantly reduced the mortality caused by WSSV infection, while the VP28 copies of WSSV were also reduced. Quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction revealed that hesperetin increased the expression of several innate immune-related genes, including NF-kappaB and C-type lectin. Further analysis showed that hesperetin treatment plays a positive effects on three immune parameters like total hemocyte count, phenoloxidase and superoxide dismutase activity. Nevertheless, whether or not in- fected with WSSV, hesperetin treatment would significantly increase the hemocyte apoptosis rates in crayfish. These results indicated that hesperetin could regulate the innate immunity of crayfish, and delaying and re- ducing the mortality after WSSV challenge. Therefore, the present study provided novel insights into the po- tential therapeutic or preventive functions associated with hesperetin to regulate crayfish immunity and protect crayfish against WSSV infection, provide certain theoretical basis for production practice.

In recent decades large HFMD outbreaks caused by EV71 and CVA16 have become significant public health concerns in the Asia-Pacific region. Vaccines and antiviral drugs are unavailable to prevent EV71 and CVA16 infection. In the current study, a chimeric antibody targeting a highly conserved peptide in the EV71 VP4 protein was isolated by using a phage display technique. The antibody showed cross- neutralizing capability against EV71 and CVA16 in vitro. The results suggest that this phage display- derived antibody will have great potential as a broad neutralizing antibody against EV71 and CVA16 after affinity maturation and humanization. potential for new viral recombinants of EV71 and INTRODUCTION CVA16 to emerge have been documented (13–15).

Understanding Human Astrovirus from Pathogenesis to Treatment Abstract While human astroviruses (HAstV) were discovered nearly 45 years ago, these small positive-sense RNA viruses remain critically understudied. These studies provide fundamental new research on astrovirus pathogenesis and disruption of the gut epithelium by induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) following astrovirus infection. Here we characterize HAstV-induced EMT as an upregulation of SNAI1 and VIM with a down regulation of CDH1 and OCLN, loss of cell-cell junctions most notably at 18 hours post-infection (hpi), and loss of cellular polarity by 24 hpi. While active transforming growth factor- (TGF-) increases during HAstV infection, inhibition of TGF- signaling does not hinder EMT induction. However, HAstV-induced EMT does require active viral replication.
