The Epidemiology of Circulating Rotavirus Associated with Diarrhea in Egyptian Kids and Calves
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) induced by rotavirus has been a major disease burden in Egypt since 1981 when rotavirus was first reported in humans and calves. Genome segmentation facilitates the emergence of new virus serotypes, which allows reassortment during mixed infections, and is a characteristic feature of the […]
Syncytial and Congregative Effects of Dengue and Zika Viruses on the Aedes Albopictus Cell Line Differ among Viral Strains
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Dengue viruses (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) are transmitted among humans, or from non-human primates to humans, through mosquito bites. The interaction of the virus with mosquito cells is a key step in the viral life cycle. The objective of this research is to determine how DENV […]

Effectiveness of Oral Fluid in Pathogenic Surveillance of Acute Respiratory Infection
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Oral fluid (OF) is a new safe, non-invasive, convenient, and efficient biological sample that can be used for virus nucleic acid and antibody detection. Because few studies have performed surveillance of multiple respiratory pathogens, the authors of this article sought to explore the application value of OF […]
Preparation of Equine Immunoglobulin against Smallpox and Evaluation of its Immunoprotective Effect
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Smallpox, a severe infectious disease caused by the smallpox virus, causes a death rate as high as 30% within 15-20 days after infection. Therefore, development of anti-Smallpox product as a strategic reserve is urgently needed. Pepsin-digested F(ab′)2 fragments of serum IgG from horses was prepared and tested. Transmission […]
Trypanosoma brucei Lipophosphoglycan Activates Host Immune Responses via the TLR-mediated p38 MAP Kinase and NF-kB Pathways
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. This study investigates the immunoregulatory effects of trypanosomal lipophosphoglycan (LPG) anchored to trypanosome membranes, including the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and neutrophil cytokine release after parasite infection. The interaction of cell surface TLR receptors with LPG, which signals cellular responses during Trypanosma brucei infection, was systematically investigated. […]
