Since first isolation in 1947 from the Zika forest in Uganda,Zika virus (ZIKV) has been principally known as a benign agent associated with sporadic human infections in a restricted number of African countries.However,during 2015-2016,an Asian lineage of ZIKV caused an unprecedentedly large outbreak in the Americas and sizeable numbers of exported cases across the globe.In this review,we critically appraise the recent advances in molecular epidemiological studies of ZIKV performed to date,and we highlight the pivotal role played by genomic surveillance in elucidating the origins,dissemination and evolution of the Asian lineage of ZIKV in Asia and in the Americas.

A plethora of evidence suggests that protein misfolding and aggregation are underlying mechanisms of various neurodegenerative diseases,such as prion diseases and Alzheimer\'s disease (AD).Like prion diseases,AD has been considered as an infectious dise
Aim: To report a series of varicocelectomy performed under pure local anesthesia. Methods: From July 1988 to June 2003, a total of 575 patients, aged between 15 and 73 years, underwent high ligation of the internal spermatic vein for treatment of a varico
Since late 2011,outbreaks of pseudorabies virus (PRV) have occurred in southern China causing major economic losses to the pig industry.We previously reported that variant PRV forms and recombination in China could be the source of continued epidemics.Her
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a global health concern,notably in Southeast Asia,and in Laos the presentation of the HCV-induced liver disease is poorly known.Our objective was thus to describe a comprehensive HCV infection pattern in order to guide national
To formulate the optimal strategy of combatting bacterial biofilms,in this review we update current knowledge on the growing problem of biofilm formation and its resistance to antibiotics which has spurred the search for new strategies to deal with this c
Acinetobacter baumannii causes serious infections especially in immunocompromised and/or hospitalized patients.Several A.baumannii strains are multidrug resistant and infect wounds,bones,and the respiratory tract.Current studies are focused on finding new
The cGAS-MITA pathway of cytosolic DNA sensing plays essential roles in immune response against pathogens that contain DNA or with DNA production in their life cycles.The cGAS-MITA pathway also detects leaked or aberrant accumulated self DNA in the cytopl
Emerging and re-emerging viral diseases are a public health concern for the whole world and pose a major threat to human health and life.In last decades, numerous major outbreaks of emerging and re-emerging viral diseases with gross public concern were re
The Society for Invertebrate Pathology (SIP) is foremost in the world covering all aspects of related research in insect virology,bacteriology,mycology,parasitology and microbial control.The SIP has a wide scientific appeal with members from many countrie
Antibodies play critical roles in neutralizing viral infections and are increasingly used as therapeutic drugs and diagnostic tools.Structural studies on virus-antibody immune complexes are important for better understanding the molecular mechanisms of an
