Background: Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common cause of non-genetic sensorineural hearing loss (SHNL) in children. Only about 10% to 15% of children with congenital CMV is a symptom, and most are not diagnosed at birth. Approximately 7% to 15% of clinically asymptomatic patients may develop complications later, including Sensorineural hearing loss, which is the most common sequelae in patients with clinically asymptomatic. In this study, the hearing status were investigated in children with confirmed CMV infection and newborn hearing screening (NHS) is reviewed to explore the history of hearing loss caused by CMV.
Methods: The medical records of 58 children diagnosed with CMV infection was confirmed in terms of clinical symptoms and signs of CMV infection. Status hearing evaluated by audiological test battery according to age.
Results: A total of 58 children (M: F = 32:26 patient, age of study: mean, 5.62 years, range, 1-10 years) serologically diagnosed with CMV infection (14 patients, 21.1%), or diagnosed through PCR of serum (5, 7.9%) and / or PCR from urine (19, 26.8%). Hearing loss was confirmed in 11 children (19.0%), being bilateral in 6 (54.5%), and unilateral in 5 (45.5%). Note that 7 out of 17 ears with hearing loss passed NHS and diagnosed only after a re-evaluation if CMV infection is identified.
Conclusion: Hearing loss is a serious complication of CMV infection in children. Our results highlight the importance of timely audiological evaluation in children with clinical symptoms of CMV infection even if they pass the NHS.
Audiologic Status of Children with Confirmed Cytomegalovirus Infection: a Case Series
Rare cases of Cytomegalovirus in Gut in immunocompetent hosts With Ischemic Colitis
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is usually seen in individuals with immunosuppressive conditions such as malignancy, HIV / AIDS, and organ transplants, and in patients with chemotherapy or steroids. recurrent disease can occur if the reactivation of the virus because the immune disorder due to factors such as older age or immunosuppressive drugs. CMV is a common, with seroprevalence (CMV IgG) from 40-100% in adults, increases with age. It has been reported that inflammatory bowel disease in remission can be exacerbated by CMV complicate steroid refractory ulcerative colitis or flares. For this reason, steroids should be carefully initiated if a high clinical suspicion for CMV. We report a unique case of CMV colitis is associated with severe ischemic colitis in immunocompetent patients, with a very good response to management with antiviral therapy.
While the cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation occurs in critically ill immunocompetent patients and has been associated with worse outcomes, very few cases of CMV reactivation have been reported following the left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. We aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors for CMV reactivation following LVAD implantation. A retrospective chart review of patients who have undergone LVAD implantation between July 2004 and December 2018 do. CMV reactivation cases with post-LVAD randomly matched (1: 2) by sex, type of LVAD, and the implant to control utilizing SAS macros.

Briefly, upon binding DNA, the protein cGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP Synthase) triggers reaction of GTP and ATP to form cGAMP. cGAMP binds to STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) which triggers phosphorylation of IRF3 via TBK1. IRF3 can then bind to interferon-stimulated responsive elements (ISRE) in the nucleus and leads to IFN-α/β production. The IRF reporter (Luc)-THP-1 cell line is highly responsive to STING and CDS ligands.

GAS Reporter (Luc) - HeLa Cell Line (IFNγ/JAK/STAT1 Pathway)
Description: The GAS reporter (Luc)-HeLa cell line is designed to monitor the activity of interferon gamma-induced signal transduction pathways in cultured cells by measuring activated STAT1 homodimers. It contains a firefly luciferase gene driven by three copies of the interferon gamma-activated sites (GAS) located upstream of the minimal TATA promoter. IFNγ first binds to a heterodimeric receptor consisting of two chains, IFNGR1 and IFNGR2, causing its dimerization and the activation of specific Janus family kinases (JAK1 and JAK2). Two STAT1 molecules associate with this ligand-activated receptor complex and are activated by phosphorylation to form active homodimer. The active STAT1 homodimers translocate to the nucleus where they bind interferon gamma-activated sites (GAS) in the promoter of IFNγ inducible genes, including luciferase reporter gene.

Description: The pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). As the first step of the viral replication, the virus attaches to the host cell surface before entering the cell. The viral Spike protein recognizes and attaches to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor found on the surface of type I and II pneumocytes, endothelial cells, and ciliated bronchial epithelial cells. Drugs targeting the interaction between the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 may offer protection against the viral infection. Omicron Variant was identified in South Africa in November of 2021. This variant has a large number of mutations that allow the virus to spread more easily and quickly than other variants. As of May 2022, Omicron variants have been divided into seven distinct sub-lineages: BA.1, BA.1.1, BA.2, BA.3, BA.2.12.1, BA.4, and BA.5.The Spike (BA.2.12.1, Omicron Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped Lentiviruses were produced with SARS-CoV-2 Spike (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1 containing all the Omicron BA.2.12.1 mutations; see below for details) as the envelope glycoprotein instead of the commonly used VSV-G. These pseudovirions contain the firefly luciferase gene driven by a CMV promoter, therefore, the spike-mediated cell entry can be measured via luciferase activity.
