Highly Virulent Getah Virus Subgroup GIII‐c Emerging in Pigs in China

Getah virus (GETV) is an emerging mosquito‐borne zoonotic alphavirus that poses a threat to multiple animal species, particularly pigs, and carries significant public health implications. Nevertheless, the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of circulating GETV strains in China remain incompletely defined. In this st...

A conserved E1 stem motif functions as a virulence switch in the emerging Getah virus

The first identification of a natural GETV variant isolated from the brain of diseased piglets is reported, identifying a highly conserved E1 stem motif as a critical regulator of GETV virulence, offering a strategic target for developing attenuated vaccines against GETV and other alphaviruses.

African swine fever virus impairs porcine alveolar macrophages bactericidal function by disrupting lysosomal acidification and cathepsin activity

In vitro findings reveal that ASFV dismantles host phagolysosomal acidification, thereby neutralizing the microbicidal potential of infected macrophages and potentially converting them into a permissive niche for secondary bacterial pathogens.

Characterization and pathogenicity of single-farm-isolated PRRSV 1 and PRRSV 2 strain in China

The evidence of PRRSV 1 and PRRSV 2 concurrent circulation in the single sow farm in China is provided, which highlights the ongoing evolution of both Chinese PRRSV species and underscores the urgent need for enhanced surveillance and updated control strategies.
