In this study, all five serotypes of Ureaplasma were found to be pathogenic in a mouse model of lower genital tract infection, with serotype 4 showing the greatest pathogenicity.

This study found that certain non-dermatophytic moulds, specifically *Absidia* sp., *Cladosporium tenuissimum*, and *Aspergillus welwitschiae*, can cause skin symptoms such as discoloration and lesions in albino mice, suggesting potential virulence due to enzyme activity.

The researchers reported that the novel MBTPS2 variant p.Glu172Asp found in a male proband is likely pathogenic, consistent with osteogenesis imperfecta symptoms and molecular signatures, including disrupted fatty acid metabolism and collagen production.

This review discusses the role of the TMPRSS2 gene in SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility and outcomes, highlighting its differential expression in ethnic groups and potential as a target for COVID-19 treatments, but reports no new results.

This study explored the relationships between virus susceptibility to infection and several factors, finding that higher heat tolerance and larger virus size correlated positively with infection susceptibility, while high humidity and higher mutation rates correlated inversely among eight RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 and influenza.
