AI Article Synopsis
- * The H5N8 virus belongs to clade 2.3.4.4 B, indicating its specific genetic lineage.
- * This strain of the virus was closely linked to other H5N8 avian viruses present in Europe during the same period.
Article Abstract
We detected a highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N8) virus in lung samples of 2 gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) stranded on the Baltic coast of Poland in 2016 and 2017. This virus, clade 2.3.4.4 B, was closely related to avian H5N8 viruses circulating in Europe at the time.

Somatic and genetic mutations in glutathione peroxidases (GPxs), including GPx7 and GPx8, have been linked to intellectual disability, microcephaly, and various tumors. GPx7 and GPx8 evolved the latest among the GPx enzymes and are present in the endoplasmic reticulum. Although lacking a glutathione binding domain, GPx7 and GPx8 possess peroxidase activity that helps the body respond to cellular stress.

Plant protease inhibitors are a ubiquitous feature of plant species and exert a substantial influence on plant stress responses. However, the (Kunitz trypsin inhibitor) family responding to abiotic stress has not been fully characterized in . In this study, we conducted a genome-wide study of the family and analyzed their gene structure, gene duplication, conserved motifs, cis-acting elements, and response to stress treatment.

Herpes viruses are highly contagious agents affecting all classes of vertebrates, thus causing serious health, social, and economic losses. Within the One Health concept, novel therapeutics are extensively studied for both veterinary and human control and management of the infection, but the optimal strategy has not been invented yet. Lactic acid bacteria are key components of the microbiome that are known to play a protective role against pathogens as one of the proposed mechanisms involves compounds released from their metabolic activity.
