This review summarizes current evidence on how beta-human papillomavirus and Merkel cell polyomavirus may contribute to the development of nonmelanoma and Merkel cell skin carcinomas, respectively, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported that COVID-19 patients treated with nirmatrelvir/ritonavir had lower anti-spike IgG levels and different cytokine patterns compared to those not receiving antiviral treatment, suggesting early antiviral use may alter immune response by reducing viral load and antigen presentation.

This study analyzed skin biopsies from human monkeypox virus (hMPXV1) cases and found characteristic pustular stage features, including epidermal necrosis, shadow cell appearance, ballooned keratinocytes, and a dense inflammatory infiltrate, expanding histological knowledge crucial for understanding this disease and related Orthopoxvirus infections.

This study found that hospitalized pediatric COVID-19 patients frequently display skin, mucosal, and nail manifestations, particularly periorbital erythema and edema, and the authors suggest COVID-19 be considered among childhood viral exanthem rashes.

This study demonstrated that the highly divergent WDSV rv-cyclin significantly stimulates eukaryotic cell proliferation, leading to hyperplastic skin lesions in transgenic mice.

In this study, different treatments on ex vivo skin models effectively simulated varying levels of skin damage, demonstrating the value of these models in testing skin repair products and studying how a compromised skin barrier affects viral penetration.

This case report details an instance of Wolf's isotopic response, where a 76-year-old patient developed keloids at the site of a previous herpes zoster infection, highlighting the unclear pathogenesis and theoretical explanations for such occurrences.

This study found that digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) outperformed qPCR in detecting replication competent lentivirus in CAR-T products by offering better sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility, making it a reliable and rapid method for ensuring patient safety.

This study found that human placenta hydrolysate reduced SARS-CoV-2 replication and improved immune response in ferret models, suggesting potential as a COVID-19 treatment.

This article reviews the therapeutic use of interferons and other cytokines in various viral, tumorous, and inflammatory diseases, discussing their biological effects and potential future applications without presenting new experimental results.

In this study, researchers developed a rapid platform using primary human lung tissues to identify SARS-CoV-2 targets and test antiviral compounds, achieving highly reproducible results across viral variants.

This study reports that synthetic carbohydrate receptors effectively inhibit Zika virus infection in cell cultures by blocking early stages of viral entry.

This review discusses the use of contact sensitizers for topical immunotherapy in dermatological conditions such as alopecia areata and viral warts, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study established a murine model for radiation-induced skin reactions, replicating clinical and histological features to aid future mechanistic and therapeutic research.

This study observed that early treatment with azithromycin and either nitazoxanide, ivermectin, or hydroxychloroquine in COVID-19 patients may reduce viral shedding, symptom duration, and respiratory complications compared to untreated patients.

This review highlights phytochemicals, particularly flavonoids and phenolics, as potential supportive treatments for SARS-CoV-2 by interfering with viral proteins and providing anti-inflammatory effects; it suggests a foundation for future therapeutic and vaccine development efforts.

This review discusses drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, highlighting clinical features, potential viral reactivations, and treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.

This molecular docking study reported that danoprevir, remdesivir, and saridegib exhibit stronger binding affinities to the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 than the control, suggesting their potential as inhibitors of the virus's replication process.

This review discusses spironolactone's new roles in tumor immunosurveillance, DNA repair inhibition, and viral infection suppression, highlighting its potential to extend uses beyond traditional applications, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that Nubian ibex have developed genetic adaptations in response to their desert environment, including enhanced skin barrier, DNA repair, viral response, and metabolism of toxic compounds.

This study explored the immune environment of the hair follicle's bulge region and suggested that its unique signaling may prevent melanoma formation by lacking necessary proinflammatory signals for full oncogenic transformation, indicating potential strategies for melanoma prevention by replicating this immune-privileged environment.

This study observed that disrupting the Pnkp gene in adult mice resulted in a premature aging-like phenotype, suggesting PNKP's vital role in maintaining normal growth and survival of certain progenitor cell populations.
