The monkeypox virus is a DNA virus that belongs to the Orthopoxvirus genus. This genus comprises other viruses such as camelpox, cowpox, ...
Study highlights the efficacy of MVA-BN booster vaccination in inducing durable B cell memory responses against monkeypox
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers assessed the immunogenicity, safety, and booster-efficacy of the Modified ...
Are antibodies induced by historic smallpox vaccination cross-reactive with the monkeypox virus?
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers measured the monkeypox virus (MPXV)-neutralizing antibodies produced by the ...
Vaccinia virus-based vaccines mount a robust immune response against the monkeypox virus
New research has suggested that recommended vaccinia virus (VACV)-based vaccines will mount a robust immune response against the monkeypox virus ...
The existing molecular variance levels in haplotypes of the interferon-alpha-beta receptor gene in Orthopoxviruses
In a recent study posted to bioRxiv*, researchers performed an analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) in 59 haplotypes of the ...
Impact of vaccinia virus-based vaccines on the 2022 monkeypox virus outbreak
Sep 5 2022 There has been a noticeable difference between the outbreak of monkeypox in 2022 (MPXV-2022) and previous outbreaks. ...
Globalization and cessation of smallpox vaccination are influencing monkeypox spread
In the late 1970s, smallpox was eradicated worldwide thanks to large-scale vaccination programs. Smallpox is a highly contagious and deadly ...
The most recent evidence about phylogenesis, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment for monkeypox
