Epidemicity indices and reproduction numbers from infectious disease data in connected human populations
Andrea Rinaldo, Cristiano Trevisin, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto
We focus on distinctive data-driven measures of the fate of ongoing epidemics. The relevance of our pursuit is suggested by recent results proving that the short-term temporal evolution of infection spread is described by an epidemicity index related to th ...
2024Uptake without inactivation of human adenovirus type 2 by Tetrahymena pyriformis ciliates
Tamar Kohn, Margot Ninon Lauren Olive
Human adenoviruses are ubiquitous contaminants of surface water. Indigenous protists may interact with adenoviruses and contribute to their removal from the water column, though the associated kinetics and mechanisms differ between protist species. In this ...
2023Inhibitors of acyl protein thioesterases against microbial infections
Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Valeria Cagno
The present invention relates inhibitors of acyl protein thioesterases and method of preparation thereof. It also relates to the use of inhibitors of acyl protein thioesterases in the treatment and/or prevention of a microbial infection such as viral or ba ...
2023Characterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa mechanosensing through label-free imaging of type IV pili
Bacteria are ubiquitously found in all sorts of environment. They're found in the ocean, soil, or even in our guts or on our skin. Independently of their niche, they can transition from a planktonic state were they freely swim in an aqueous environment to ...
EPFL2022Neonatal Manifestations of Chronic Granulomatous Disease: MAS/HLH and Necrotizing Pneumonia as Unusual Phenotypes and Review of the Literature
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare inborn error of immunity (IEI), characterized by a deficient phagocyte killing due to the inability of NADPH oxidase to produce reactive oxygen species in the phagosome. Patients with CGD suffer from severe and ...
SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS2021Highly Potent Host-Specific Small-Molecule Inhibitor of Paramyxovirus and Pneumovirus Replication with High Resistance Barrier
Gerardo Turcatti, Marc Chambon, Damiano Banfi, Jonathan Patrice Vesin
Multiple enveloped RNA viruses of the family Paramyxoviridae and Pneumoviridae, like measles virus (MeV), Nipah virus (NiV), canine distemper virus (CDV), or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), are of high clinical relevance. Each year a huge number of live ...
