Abstract:
:Nipah disease is listed as one of the WHO priority diseases that pose the greatest public health risk due to their epidemic potential. More than 200 experts from around the world convened in Singapore last year to mark the 20th anniversary of the first Nipah virus outbreaks in Malaysia and Singapore. Most of these experts are now involved in responding to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Here, members of the Organizing Committee of the 2019 Nipah Virus International Conference review highlights from the Nipah@20 Conference and reflect on key lessons learned from Nipah that could be applied to the understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic and to preparedness against future emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) of pandemic potential.

mSphere文献大全abstract::The fungal pathogen Candida glabrata can cause both mucosal and disseminated infections. Cell adhesion, a key step in colonization and infection, depends in C. glabrata primarily on the Epa family of cell adhesion proteins. While Epa proteins have been documented to mediate specific adhesion to host glycans, some of t...
