Monkeypox (MPOX) is a zoonotic viral disease caused by the Monkeypox virus (MPXV), which has become the most significant public health threat within the genus since the eradication of the Variola virus (VARV). Despite the extensive attention MPXV has garnered, little is known about its clinical manifestations in humans. In this study, a high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) approach was employed to investigate the transcriptional and metabolic responses of HEK293T cells to the MPXV A5L protein.

Art reveals core human emotions during catastrophes like epidemics, allowing people to narrate their coping stories. This review examines smallpox's historical evolution and treatment in Japan, integrating visual art with medical history. It provides chronological insights from smallpox's arrival and traditional remedies to the era of vaccination and public health measures leading to eventual eradication.

Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, has re-emerged as a significant global health concern, particularly during the widespread outbreak of 2022. As an orthopoxvirus related to the eradicated smallpox virus, mpox has been primarily managed with smallpox vaccines and treatments, including the antiviral agent Tecovirimat. This systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Tecovirimat in treating mpox, focusing on its use during the 2022 outbreak, especially among high-risk populations, including men who have sex with men and people living with HIV.

The eradication of smallpox, a historic triumph in global public health, was accomplished without a complete conception of the mechanisms underlying vaccine-induced protection. Contemporary concerns regarding potential bioterrorism threats and the possibility of smallpox reemergence have spurred research efforts toward developing third-generation vaccines capable of effectively neutralizing the variola virus. Clinical trials for a third-generation smallpox vaccine (KVAC103) are underway to obtain licensure.

Vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototype member of the Poxviridae family, has played a crucial role in medicine as a key component in the development of smallpox vaccines, contributing to the eradication of this deadly disease. Beyond its historical significance, VACV continues to be pivotal in researching metabolic alterations induced by viral infections. Studies have revealed that VACV can impact pathways such as glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and lipid metabolism in host cells, offering valuable insights into host-virus interactions and broader cellular metabolism.
