Abstract One Health recognises the interdependence between health of humans, animals, plants and environment. With increasing inclusion in multiple global strategies, workforce must be prepared to protect sustain well-being life on planet. In this paper, a review past currently accepted core competencies was conducted, with competence gaps identified. Here, Network for Ecohealth (NEOH) propose updated designed simplify what can complex area, grouping into three main areas of: Skills; Values...
Abstract Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) infections are associated with severe respiratory disease and acute flaccid myelitis (AFM). The European Non-Polio Network (ENPEN) aimed to investigate the epidemiological genetic characteristics of EV-D68 its clinical impact during fall-winter season 2021–2022. From 19 countries, 58 institutes reported 10 481 (6.8%) EV-positive samples which 1004 (9.6%) were identified as (including 852 samples). Clinical data for 969 cases; 78.9% in children (0–5 years);...
Abstract Mpox is an emerging zoonotic disease which has now spread to over 113 countries as of August 2023, with 89,500 confirmed human cases. The Netherlands had one the highest incidence rates in Europe during peak outbreak. In this study, we generated 158 near‐complete mpox virus (MPXV) genomes (12.4% nationwide cases) that were collected throughout from start outbreak May 2022 2023 track viral evolution and investigate dynamics. We detected 14 different lineages, suggesting multiple...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is currently regarded by the World Health Organization (WHO) as one of most significant risks to global public health. The critical causes AMR infections in humans are misuse and overuse antimicrobials farmed animals. rising demand for food animal origin encourages increase production worldwide, especially developing countries. Simultaneously, current farming practices often extensively use on animals, influencing bacterial incidence. This study aims evaluate...
The bacteria Anaplasma platys and Ehrlichia canis the protozoan Leishmania infantum are vector-borne agents that cause canine diseases, some of which zoonotic. present survey investigated prevalence Anaplasma, in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) from Portugal by molecular analysis, order to evaluate epidemiological role these canids as reservoirs infection.Blood and/or bone marrow samples were collected 78 obtained eight districts northern, central southern Portugal.

Abstract Human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) is a tumor biomarker that when overexpressed and/or amplified associated with poor prognosis for women breast cancer. This specific subtype eligible immunotherapy increases survival period. However, in feline oncology, only few studies have been performed on molecular characterization of ( f HER2) mammary carcinoma (FMC), and the available data are inconsistent. In this study, HER2 protein levels gene status FMC were evaluated by...
Viral interactions with host nucleus have been thoroughly studied, clarifying molecular mechanisms and providing new antiviral targets. Considering that African swine fever virus (ASFV) intranuclear phase of infection is poorly understood, viral interplay subnuclear domains chromatin architecture were addressed. Nuclear speckles, Cajal bodies, promyelocytic leukaemia nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) evaluated by immunofluorescence microscopy Western blot. Further, efficient PML protein knockdown...
African swine fever (ASF) is a fatal viral disease of domestic and wild boar, considered one the main threats for global pig husbandry. Despite enormous efforts, to date, neither classical vaccine formulations nor use protein subunits proved be efficient prevent this disease. Under scenario, new strategies have been proposed including development disabled infectious single cycle (DISC) or replication-defective mutants as potential immunizing agents against ASF virus (ASFV). In study, we...
