Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptomic characteristics of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and peripheral blood mononuclear cells in COVID-19 patients.

TL;DR: The results reveal distinct host inflammatory cytokine profiles to SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients, and highlight the association between COVID-19 pathogenesis and excessive cytokine release such as CCL2/MCP-1, CXCL10/IP-10, CCL3/MIP-1A, and CCL4/Mip1B.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of Covid-19 in Children in Early January 2020 in Wuhan, China.

TL;DR: A retrospective analysis of routine surveillance data involving children hospitalized in central Wuhan, China, for acute lower respiratory infection in early 2018 found that children with Covid-19 were more likely to be diagnosed with pneumonia than the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA based mNGS approach identifies a novel human coronavirus from two individual pneumonia cases in 2019 Wuhan outbreak.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicates that 2019-nCoV is close to coronaviruses (CoVs) circulating in Rhinolophus (Horseshoe bats), and Evolutionary analysis based on ORF1a/1b, S, and N genes suggests2019-n coV is more likely a novel CoV independently introduced from animals to humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

EV71 infection induces neurodegeneration via activating TLR7 signaling and IL-6 production.

TL;DR: It is proposed that EV71 infects astrocytes of the cerebral cortex in mice and human and triggers TLR7 signaling and IL-6 release, subsequently inducing neural pathogenesis in the brain.
