Children younger than 5 years accounted for more than a third of deaths (86 600 [53 300–149 000]). #Streptococcuspneumoniae, #Neisseriameningitidis, non-polio #enteroviruses
& other viruses were the leading causes of death, while non-polio enteroviruses caused the most cases.

..."Because many different #viruses can cause #meningitis, the way in which the virus is spread will depend on its type.
#Enteroviruses (one of the most common causes of viral meningitis) are carried harmlessly in the intestines of both children and adults" 2/

Non-polio enterovirus infection and electrophysiological changes in human iPSC-derived neural networks Our results demonstrate that neurotropic NPEVs lead to disruption of spontaneous neural activity in a virus-specific manner, which does not correlate with their replication efficiency.

🧠🦠Excited to share our latest work on non-polio enteroviruses (NPEVs) and their impact on the brain.

If you have to contend with the "BuT #COVID19 iS JuSt A CoLd!" crowd, I heartily recommend (for you AND them) the Wikipedia article on #enteroviruses. They're another group of cold viruses (the largest group in fact), besides coronaviruses. Polio is an enterovirus. But if you think polio is just […]

This week we introduced an #assembloid-based platform to begin studying how #enteroviruses affect human neuromuscular systems.

This is a collaboration with Jan Carette here at Stanford.

Work led by Christine Peters, Jimena Andersen and Min-Yin Li.

Advancing Enterovirus Antiviral Discovery: A New Assay and Potent 2C Inhibitor Show Promise Against Paralysis Enteroviruses, including EV-D68, EV-A71, and Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), are a significant global health threat, causing a spectrum of diseases from mild respiratory illness to severe neurological compl...

Two bar charts comparing the percentage of donors with two or more positive assays, grouped by different classifications. Left chart (By donor classification): Five groups: ND (n=36), AAb⁺ (n=15), AAb⁺⁺ (n=7), T1D-CI (n=30), and T1D-ID (n=22). The percentage of donors with ≥2 assays positive increases progressively across these groups: ND (~0%), AAb⁺ (~28%), AAb⁺⁺ (~29%), T1D-CI (~50%), and T1D-ID (~82%). Statistical significance is indicated with asterisks: *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 between multiple group comparisons. Right chart (By presence of autoimmunity/beta cells): Four groups: No AI & beta cells (n=40), AI & beta cells (n=48), AI & no beta cells (n=11), No AI & no beta cells (n=11). Percentages: No AI & beta cells (~7%), AI & beta cells (~58%), AI & no beta cells (~0%), No AI & no beta cells (~0%). Highly significant differences (***p<0.001) noted between most comparisons. Both charts share a y-axis labelled “Donors with ≥2 assays positive (%)” ranging from 0 to 100%.

Can #enteroviruses contribute to #T1D? A study by Dr Teresa Rodriguez Calvo(@www.helmholtz-munich.de)& Dr Sarah Richardson(@exeter.ac.uk) in @diabetologiajnl.bsky.social found that higher rates of virus markers were found in nearly 200 donor organs with preclinical/ongoing T1D.

At #VGEB24 & interested in #enteroviruses / #polio #poliovirus ? EVE group (Hodcroft Lab aka Hodcrew) has some great posters! 👀

First, today, stop by P53 with Keno to hear about recombination, EV-Cs, & vaccine-derived polio!

Bonus: All the Hodcrew have great stickers to share!

Thrilled to be at @ESCVirology! And a very relevant opening about #enteroviruses from @TheaKFischer - we need to learn more about them!
And now, a talk from @eckerleisabella.bsky.social about bringing together public health, diagnostics, & research. #ESCV #ESCV2024
