1Efforts to mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic:potential entry points for neglected tropical diseases显示文摘Background:The damage inflicted by the coronavirus diseases 2019(COVID-19)pandemic upon humanity is and will continue to be considerable.Unprecedented progress made in global health over the past 20 years has reverted and economic growth has already evaporated,giving rise to a global recession,the likes of which we may not have experienced since the Second World War.Our aim is to draw the attention of the neglected tropical disease(NTD)community towards some of the major emerging economic opportunities which are quickly appearing on the horizon as a result of COVID-19.Main text:This scoping review relied on a literature search comprised of a sample of articles,statements,and press releases on initiatives aimed at mitigating the impact of COVID-19,while supporting economic recovery.Of note,the donor scenario and economic development agendas are highly dynamic and expected to change rapidly as the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds,as are donor and lender priorities.Con elusions:The NTD community,particularly in low-and middle-income countries(LMICs),will need to work quickly,diligently,and in close collaboration with decision-makers and key stakeholders,across sectors at national and international level to secure its position.Doing so might enhance the odds of grasping potential opportunities to access some of the massive resources that are now available in the form of contributions from corporate foundations,trust funds,loans,debt relieve schemes,and other financial mechanisms,as part of the ongoing and future economic development agendas and public health priorities driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.This paper should serve as a starting point for the NTD community to seek much needed financial support in order to sustain and revitalize control and elimination efforts pertaining to NTDs in LMICs.John P.Ehrenberg Jurg Utzinger Gilberto Fontes Eliana Maria Mauricio da Rocha Nieves Ehrenberg Xiao-Nong Zhou Peter Steinmann 2021Infectious Diseases of Poverty2021,10,1:1
2Strategies supporting the prevention and control of neglected tropical diseases during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic显示文摘Emerging and re-emerging zoonotic diseases represent a public health challenge of international concern.They include a large group of neglected tropical diseases(NTDs),many of which are of zoonotic nature.Coronavirus disease 201g(COVID-19),another emerging zoonotic disease,has just increased the stakes exponentially.Most NTDs are subject to the impact of some of the very same human-related activities triggering other emerging and re-emerging diseases,including COVID-19,severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS),bird flu and swine flu.It is conceivable that COVID-19 will exacerbate the NTDs,as it will divert much needed financial and human resources.There is considerable concern that recent progress achieved with control and elimination efforts will be reverted.Future potential strategies will need to reconsider the determinants of health in NTDs in order to galvanize efforts and come up with a comprehensive,well defined programme that will set the stage for an effective multi-sectorial approach.In this Commentary,we propose areas of potential synergies between the COVID-19 pandemic control efforts other health and non-health sector initiatives and NTD control and elimination programmes.John P.Ehrenberg Xiao-Nong Zhou Gilberto Fontes Eliana M.M.Rocha Marcel Tanner Jürg Utzinger 2020Infectious Diseases of Poverty2020,9,4:0
3A WW Domain-Containing Protein Forms Immune Nuclear Bodies against Begomoviruses显示文摘The bipartite begomoviruses (Geminiviridae family), which are DNA viruses that replicate in the nucleus of infected cells, encode the nuclear shuttle protein (NSP) to facilitate the translocation of viral DNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm via nuclear pores. This intracellular trafficking of NSP-DNA complexes is accessorized by the NSP-interacting guanosine triphosphatase (NIG) at the cytosolic side. Here, we report the nuclear redistribution of NIG by AtWWPI, a WW domain-containing protein that forms immune nuclear bodies (NBs) against begomoviruses. We demonstrated that AtWWPI relocates NIG from the cytoplasm to the nucleus where it is confined to AtWWP1-NBs, suggesting that the NIG-AtWWP1 interaction may interfere with the NIG pro-viral function associated with its cytosolic localization. Consistent with this assumpti on joss AtWWPI functi on cuased plants more susceptible to begomovirus infection, whereas overexpression of AWWP1 enhaneed plant resistance to begomovirus. Furthermore, we found that a mutant versi on of AtWWPI defective for NB formatio n was noIonger capable of interacti ng with and relocating NIG to the nucleus and lost its immune function against begomovirus. The antiviral function of AtWWP1-NBs, however, could be antagonized by viral infection that induced either the disruption or a decrease in the number of AtWWP1-NBs. Collectively, these results led us to propose that AtWWPI organizes nuclear structures into nuclear foci, which provide intrinsic immunity against begomovirus infection.lara P. Calil lana P.S.
