What Is Already Known About This Topic?: Monkeypox, first identified in Africa in 1958, is a zoonotic disease caused by monkeypox virus (MPXV). Since January 2022, a global outbreak of mpox has spread to over 100 non-endemic countries. As of June 30, 2024, there have been 99,176 confirmed cases and 535 probable cases across 116 countries, resulting in 208 deaths.

A Retrospective Investigation of a Case of Dual Infection by Avian-Origin Influenza A (H10N5) and Seasonal Influenza A (H3N2) Viruses - Anhui Province, China, December 2023-January 2024.

What Is Known About This Topic?: H10 avian influenza viruses circulate in wild birds and can reassort with other subtypes. H10N8 and H10N3 have previously caused sporadic human infections in China.

What Is Added By This Report?: This report documents the first human case of co-infection with avian-origin H10N5 and seasonal H3N2 influenza viruses.

The Hippo Pathway and Viral Infections.

The Hippo signaling pathway is a novel tumor suppressor pathway, initially found in Recent studies have discovered that the Hippo signaling pathway plays a critical role in a wide range of biological processes, including organ size control, cell proliferation, cancer development, and virus-induced diseases. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the biological feature and pathological role of the Hippo pathway, focusing particularly on current findings in the function of the Hippo pathway in virus infection and pathogenesis.
