Looking back at 2019-2020, the overwhelming situation of COVID-19 pandemic, in which we are still immersed, immediately comes to everybody’s mind. However, I would like to highlight 2019-2020 as the years in which our center completed a substantial remodelling process, following the advice of the SAB that visited us in December 2018 and the internal analysis

Received: 3 October 2019; Accepted: 20 November 2019; Published: 22 November 2019 Abstract: The oral cavity contributes to overall health, psychosocial well-being and quality of human life. Oral inflammatory diseases represent a major global health problem with significant social and economic impact. The development of effective therapies, therefore, requires deeper insights into the etiopathogenesis of oral diseases. Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection results in a life-long persistence of the virus in the host and has been associated with numerous oral inflammatory diseases including oral lichen planus (OLP), periodontal disease and Sjogren’s syndrome (SS). There is considerable evidence that the EBV infection is a strong risk factor for the development and progression of these conditions, but is EBV a true pathogen? This long-standing EBV paradox yet needs to be solved. This review discusses novel viral aspects of the etiopathogenesis of non-tumorigenic diseases in the oral cavity, in particular, the contribution of EBV in OLP, periodontitis and SS, the tropism of EBV infection, the major players involved in the etiopathogenic mechanisms and emerging contribution of EBV-pathogenic bacteria bidirectional interaction.

  • Metatranscriptomics to Characterize Respiratory Virome, Microbiome, and Host Response Directly from Clinical Samples

Using nasal swab samples, we have demonstrated that this method captures the comprehensive RNA virome with sucient sequencing depth required to assemble complete genomes. We nd a surprisingly high-frequency of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and Coronavirus (CoV) in healthy children, and a high frequency of RSV-A and RSV-B co-infections in children with symptomatic RSV. In addition, we have characterized commensal and pathogenic bacteria, and fungi at the species-level. Functional analysis of bacterial transcripts revealed H.

To date, most studies of DNA viruses have focused on those with the strongest disease associations. Accordingly, there has been a marked lack of sampling of DNA viruses from invertebrates. Bulk RNA sequencing has resulted in the discovery of a myriad of novel RNA viruses, and herein we used this methodology to identify actively transcribing DNA viruses in meta-transcriptomic libraries of diverse invertebrate species. Our analysis revealed high levels of phylogenetic diversity in DNA viruses, including 13 species from the Parvoviridae, Circoviridae, and Genomoviridae families of single-stranded DNA virus families, and six double-stranded DNA virus species from the Nudiviridae, Polyomaviridae, and Herpesviridae, for which few invertebrate viruses have been identified to date.
