The fecal and oropharyngeal eukaryotic viromes of healthy infants during the first year of life are personal
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Scientific Reports, Vol 13, Iss 1, Pp 1-14 (2023)
Abstract: Abstract Using a metagenomic sequencing approach, we described and compared the diversity and dynamics of the oropharyngeal and fecal eukaryotic virome of nine asymptomatic children in a semi-rural community setting located in the State of Morelos, Mex...
Metagenomic analysis reveals differences in the co-occurrence and abundance of viral species in SARS-CoV-2 patients with different severity of disease
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): BMC Infectious Diseases, Vol 22, Iss 1, Pp 1-12 (2022)
Abstract: Abstract Background SARS-CoV-2 infections have a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations whose causes are not completely understood. Some human conditions predispose to severe outcome, like old age or the presence of comorbidities, but many other face...

Abstract: BackgroundAfter the initial outbreak in China (December 2019), the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11th, 2020. This paper aims to describe the first 2 years of the pandemic in Mexico.Design and methodsThis is a populatio...
Omicron-BA.1 Dispersion Rates in Mexico Varied According to the Regional Epidemic Patterns and the Diversity of Local Delta Subvariants
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Viruses, Vol 15, Iss 243, p 243 (2023)
Abstract: Purpose: The Omicron subvariant BA.1 of SARS-CoV-2 was first detected in November 2021 and quickly spread worldwide, displacing the Delta variant. In this work, a characterization of the spread of this variant in Mexico is presented. Methods: The time ...
Changes in the immune response against SARS-CoV-2 in individuals with severe COVID-19 treated with high dose of vitamin D
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, Vol 150, Iss , Pp 112965- (2022)
Abstract: Main cause of severe illness and death in COVID-19 patients appears to be an excessive but ineffectual inflammatory immune response that may cause severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Vitamin D may favour an anti-inflammatory environment ...

Abstract: ABSTRACT During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the emergence and rapid increase of the B.1.1.7 (Alpha) lineage of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first identified in the United Kingdom in September 2020,...
High Prevalence and Diversity of Caliciviruses in a Community Setting Determined by a Metagenomic Approach
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Microbiology Spectrum, Vol 10, Iss 1 (2022)
Abstract: ABSTRACT We recently carried out a metagenomic study to determine the fecal virome of infants during their first year of life in a semirural community in Mexico. A total of 97 stool samples from nine children were collected starting 2 weeks after birth...
