  • Rational Design of Inhibitors of Poxviral RNA Polymerase
    Poxviruses are large cytosolic DNA viruses with a propensity to cause zoonoses. They are present in animal reservoirs and responsible for a large spectrum of disorders, including human smallpox. Only few causative treatment options are available, but vaccination with the non-pathogenic vaccinia virus enabled the eradication of the smallpox-causing variola virus. However, the herd immunity against poxviruses is dwindling in humans. Accordingly, poxviruses including monkeypox virus are considered as potentially highly threatening for their pandemic ‘spillover’ risk. Here, we strive to develop novel virostatics for the fight of poxviral dieases. Our approach is based on a set of atomic resolution cryo EM structures of vaccinia transcription complexes that we have recently determined. We use in silico screening to identify novel binders, test them in a radionuclide transcription assay for inhibition and will characterize the resulting ligand-RNA polymerase complexes by cryo EM.
  • Public Anxiety Around Monkeypox Outbreak: Detecting Emotional Distress From Bangla Instagram Posts
    This dataset introduces a novel collection of Instagram posts related to Monkeypox, focusing on anxiety detection in Bangla language. Due to the scarcity of publicly available data on Monkeypox reactions in Bangla, around 2,000 posts, including 638 Bangla posts and 1,362 English posts (translated into Bangla), were gathered from hashtags like #Monkeypox, #Mpox, and others. The posts, published between January and July 2024, were labeled into two classes—non-anxiety and anxiety—verified by professional psychologists. The final dataset contains 791 anxiety samples and 783 non-anxiety samples, offering a balanced resource for further research.
  • Bridging Cultural Gaps in Health Communication: Indigenous Language as a Catalyst for Combatting Monkeypox in Lagos, Nigeria
    Infectious diseases such as Monkeypox have continued to pose significant threats to global health, demanding effective strategies for prevention and control. Existing studies have primarily focused on Monkeypox clinical analysis, with less attention given to adopting indigenous language as a health communication for the proper behavioural practices. This study investigated the usage of indigenous language as a health communication strategy towards the prevention of Monkeypox vis-à-vis the knowledge, attitude, and practices of Alimosho residents of Lagos State. Furthermore, the study determines the influence of information sources on resident’s behavioural practices. The research employed a mixed-methods approach of in-depth interviews and surveys to collect data from public health practitioners and 439 randomly selected residents of Alimosho using multistage sampling. Findings revealed a mixed level of understanding and adherence to recommended preventive measures. The study revealed that little effort was channelled into raising awareness about Monkeypox especially as it involved using the indigenous language. The hospital focused mainly on Hepatitis B virus, Hepatitis C virus, HIV, and Smallpox by employing communication channels such as seminars, flyers and use the media. The study also showed that majority of the respondents (83%) were aware of Monkeypox; however, only 20.4% were knowledgeable about the symptoms, mode of transmission, and preventive measures towards the disease. This study concludes that there is poor knowledge regarding Monkeypox amongst Alimosho residents despite seeking information on the disease. Therefore, the study further recommends that indigenous language should be adopted alongside the various communication channels used by the Government as well as Non-governmental organisations towards orienting Alimosho residents about Monkeypox right behavioural practices.

  • Infection with mpox virus via the genital mucosae increases shedding and transmission in the multimammate rat (Mastomys natalensis)
    The 2022 mpox virus outbreak was sustained by human-to-human transmission, however it is currently unclear which factors lead to sustained transmission of mpox virus (MPXV). Here, we present Mastomys natalensis as a model for MPXV transmission after intraperitoneal, rectal, vaginal, aerosol, and transdermal inoculation with an early 2022 human outbreak isolate (Clade IIb). Virus shedding and tissue replication was route-dependent and occurred in the presence of self-resolving localized skin, lung, reproductive tract, or rectal lesions. Mucosal inoculation via rectal, vaginal and aerosol routes led to increased shedding, replication and a proinflammatory T-cell profile compared to skin inoculation. Contact transmission was higher from rectally inoculated animals. This suggests that transmission might be sustained by increased susceptibility of the anal and genital mucosae for infection and subsequent virus release.
  • High-throughput and Highly Sensitive Mpox Test with QuantiVirusTM MPXV Test Kit
    Monkeypox (mpox) is a rare disease that is caused by infection with monkeypox (mpox) virus. This virus can spread to anyone through close, personal, often skin-to-skin contact. The mpox genome is a large single linear molecule of dsDNA, about 197 kilobase-pairs (kbp) in length. The genome consists of about 190 non-overlapping open reading frames (>180 bp long) containing 60 or more amino acid residues. There are two clades of Mpox: the West African clade (clade II) and the Congo Basin clade (clade I). The QuantiVirus™ MPXV Test Kit [FDA EUA and CE/IVD] detects DNA from both clade I and clade II of MPXV in lesion swab specimens (i.e., swabs of acute pustular or vesicular rash). It uses a fluorescent probe with specific primer sets to detect the J2L and B6R genes within the genome of MPXV. Primers and probe for an internal control, RNase P are also integrated in the assay to validate the assay quality.
  • Sources of information on monkeypox virus infection. A systematic review with meta-analysis
    Abstract Background Monkeypox (Mpox) virus infection is a topic of growing interest today because of its potential public health impact and concern about possible outbreaks. Reliable and up-to-date sources of information that provide accurate data on its transmission, symptoms, prevention, and treatment are essential for understanding and effectively addressing this disease. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to determine the prevalence of sources of information on Mpox virus infection. Methods An exhaustive systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out using the information available in the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and ScienceDirect databases up to August 3, 2023. The data were analyzed using R software version 4.2.3. The quality of the cross-sectional studies that formed part of this review was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Meta-Analysis of Statistics Assessment and Review Instrument (JBI-MAStARI) tool. In addition, a subgroup analysis was performed based on the study populations. Results Through electronic searches of five databases, a total of 1833 studies were identified. Twenty-four cross-sectional articles were included, with a total sample of 35,959 participants from 34 countries. The pooled prevalence of each of the included information sources was: social networks reached 59% (95% CI: 50–68%; 29,146 participants; 22 studies; I2 = 100%; p < 0.01); the Internet was 61% (95% CI: 44–77%; 14,002 participants; 5 studies; I2 = 100%; p < 0.01), radio reached 10% (95% CI: 07–13%; 8917 participants; 4 studies; I2 = 93%; p < 0.01), television accounted for 24% (95% CI: 09–43%; 14,896 participants; 8 studies; I2 = 100%; p < 0.01), and the combination of radio and television accounted for 45% (95% CI: 31–60%; 4207 participants; 7 studies; I2 = 99%; p < 0.01); for newspapers, it was 15% (95% CI: 05–27%; 2841 participants; 6 studies; I2 = 99%; p < 0.01), friends and relatives accounted for 19% (95% CI: 12–28%; 28,470 participants; 19 studies; I2 = 100%; p < 0.01), the World Health Organization (WHO) accounted for 17% (95% CI: 07–29%; 1656 participants; 3 studies; I2 = 97%; p < 0.01), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) accounted for 10% (95% CI: 03–21%; 2378 participants; 3 studies; I2 = 98%; p < 0.01), and the combination of WHO and CDC websites accounted for 60% (95% CI: 48–72%; 1828 participants; 4 studies; I2 = 96%; p < 0.01), and finally, scientific articles and journals accounted for 24% (95% CI: 16–33%; 16,775 participants; 13 studies; I2 = 99%; p < 0.01). Conclusion The study suggests that people access a variety of information sources to gain knowledge about Mpox virus infection, with a strong emphasis on online sources such as social networks and the Internet. However, it is important to note that the quality and accuracy of information available from these sources can vary, underscoring the need to promote access to reliable and up-to-date information about this disease to ensure public health.
