By targeting the essential viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP), nucleoside analogs (NAs) have exhibited great potential in antiviral therapy for RNA virus-related diseases. However, most ribose-modified NAs do not present broad-spectrum features, likely due to differences in ribose-RdRP interactions across virus families. Here, we show that HNC-1664, an adenosine analog with modifications both in ribose and base, has broad-spectrum antiviral activity against positive-strand coronaviruses and negative-strand arenaviruses.

Background: Antibiotic resistance is an escalating global health issue, with particularly severe implications in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) such as Nigeria. This study examines antibiotic-resistant bacteria's prevalence and molecular characteristics in daycare centres in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, where high antibiotic use and limited infection control measures present significant challenges.
Methods: Between November 2017 and July 2019, samples were collected from 20 daycare centres, including swabs from fomites and children.

Serine protease inhibitors (Serpins) are a protein superfamily of protease inhibitors that are thought to play a role in the regulation of inflammation, immunity, tumorigenesis, coagulation, blood pressure and cancer metastasis. Serpins is enriched in the skin and play a vital role in modulating the epidermal barrier and maintaining skin homeostasis. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory immune-mediated skin disease.
