    Abstract We detected Usutu virus in a dead Eurasian blackbird (Turdus merula) in Luxembourg in September 2020. The strain clustered within the Africa 3.1 lineage identified in Western Europe since 2016. Our results suggest maintenance of the virus in Europe despite little reporting during 2019-2020, rather than a new introduction.

  4. Article ; Online: Is in vitro maturation of oocytes retrieved ex vivo from ovarian tissue an effective fertility preservation technique in the presence of organic ovarian cysts?

    Abstract Objective(s): In vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes retrieved ex vivo from ovarian tissue (OTO-IVM) could be an additional source of mature oocytes with the potential to optimise medical fertility preservation (FP) after oophorectomy. It is often undertaken at the same time as the ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC). In the presence of an organic ovarian cyst, OTO-IVM could prove to be the only technique available to permit FP since ovarian stimulation, transvaginal ovarian needle puncture or future ovarian tissue graft are contraindicated. However, the presence of an organic cyst could alter follicular growth and the number of retrievd oocytes. Our study aims to assess the efficiency of OTO-IVM in such situations.
    Study design: Retrospective, observational study involving 20 female patients with FP by OTO-IVM between May 2017 and November 2021 at the University Hospital of Toulouse. Oocytes retrieved "ex vivo" were transferred to an IVM medium with HP-hMG, LH and HSA and then vitrified after 24 to 48 h of IVM. Data analysis was performed on the total population and comparatively between patients who had or did not have an organic ovarian cyst.
    Results: The indications included 15 oncologic and 5 non-oncologic indications. Ten had an organic ovarian cyst on the retrieved ovary. The number of retrieved oocytes was 17.4+/-12.0 in the absence of cyst vs 4.1+/-6.3 in the presence (p = 0.003). The number of vitrified mature oocytes was 5.8+/-5.3 in the absence vs 1.1+/-2.2 (median = 0) in the presence of a cyst (p = 0.03). Ninety percent of the patients with an organic cyst had less than two vitrified mature oocytes. The mean maturation rate was 34%, not significantly different between the two groups. We found a correlation between serum AMH level and the number of mature oocytes: ρ:0.47 CI95 = [0.02; 0.76]; p = 0.04.
    Conclusion(s): OTO-IVM is an additional source of mature oocytes to optimise FP after oophorectomy. However, in the presence of an organic ovarian cyst on the retrieved ovary, the exocrine, paracrine and endocrine functions of the ovary are impaired. As such, the number of immature oocytes obtained is highly impacted and appears to be insufficient to be able to propose systematically this technique in such situations.

    Abstract After two decades free of Newcastle disease, Belgium encountered a velogenic avian orthoavulavirus type 1 epizootic in 2018. In Belgium, 20 cases were diagnosed, of which 15 occurred in hobby flocks, 2 in professional poultry flocks and 3 in poultry retailers. The disease also disseminated from Belgium towards the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg by trade. Independently, the virus was detected once in the Netherlands, almost simultaneously to the first Belgian detection. As such Newcastle disease emerged in the entire BeNeLux region. Both the polybasic sequence of the fusion gene cleavage site and the intracerebral pathotyping assay demonstrated the high pathogenicity of the strain. This paper represents the first notification of this specific VII.2 subgenotype in the North-West of Europe. Time-calibrated full genome phylogenetic analysis indicated the silent or unreported circulation of the virus prior to the emergence of three genetic clusters in the BeNeLux region without clear geographical or other epidemiological correlation. The Dutch strain appeared as an outgroup to the Belgian and Luxembourgian strains in the time-correlated genetic analysis and no epidemiological link could be identified between the Belgian and Dutch outbreaks. In contrast, both genetic and epidemiological outbreak investigation data linked the G.D. Luxembourg case to the Belgian outbreak. The genetic links between Belgian viruses from retailers and hobby flocks only partially correlated with epidemiological data. Two independent introductions into the professional poultry sector were identified, although their origin could not be determined. Animal experiments using 6-week- old specific pathogen-free chickens indicated a systemic infection and efficient transmission of the virus. The implementation of re-vaccination in the professional sector, affected hobby and retailers, as well as the restriction on assembly and increased biosecurity measures, possibly limited the epizootic and resulted in the disappearance of the virus. These findings emphasize the constant need for awareness and monitoring of notifiable viruses in the field.

    Abstract Since 2016, A(H5Nx) high pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus of clade 2.3.4.4b has become one of the most serious global threats not only to wild and domestic birds, but also to public health. In recent years, important changes in the ecology, epidemiology, and evolution of this virus have been reported, with an unprecedented global diffusion and variety of affected birds and mammalian species. After the two consecutive and devastating epidemic waves in Europe in 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, with the second one recognized as one of the largest epidemics recorded so far, this clade has begun to circulate endemically in European wild bird populations. This study used the complete genomes of 1,956 European HPAI A(H5Nx) viruses to investigate the virus evolution during this varying epidemiological outline. We investigated the spatiotemporal patterns of A(H5Nx) virus diffusion to/from and within Europe during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 epidemic waves, providing evidence of ongoing changes in transmission dynamics and disease epidemiology. We demonstrated the high genetic diversity of the circulating viruses, which have undergone frequent reassortment events, providing for the first time a complete overview and a proposed nomenclature of the multiple genotypes circulating in Europe in 2020-2022. We described the emergence of a new genotype with gull adapted genes, which offered the virus the opportunity to occupy new ecological niches, driving the disease endemicity in the European wild bird population. The high propensity of the virus for reassortment, its jumps to a progressively wider number of host species, including mammals, and the rapid acquisition of adaptive mutations make the trend of virus evolution and spread difficult to predict in this unfailing evolving scenario.

    Abstract Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D (LGMD2D) is characterized by a progressive proximal muscle weakness. LGMD2D is caused by mutations in the gene encoding α-sarcoglycan (α-SG), a dystrophin-associated glycoprotein that plays a key role in the maintenance of sarcolemma integrity in striated muscles. We report here on the development of a new in vitro high-throughput screening assay that allows the monitoring of the proper localization of the most prevalent mutant form of α-SG (R77C substitution). Using this assay, we screened a library of 2560 FDA-approved drugs and bioactive compounds and identified thiostrepton, a cyclic antibiotic, as a potential drug to repurpose for LGMD2D treatment. Characterization of the thiostrepton effect revealed a positive impact on R77C-α-SG and other missense mutant protein localization (R34H, I124T, V247M) in fibroblasts overexpressing these proteins. Finally, further investigations of the molecular mechanisms of action of the compound revealed an inhibition of the chymotrypsin-like activity of the proteasome 24 h after thiostrepton treatment and a synergistic effect with bortezomib, an FDA-approved proteasome inhibitor. This study reports on the first in vitro model for LGMD2D that is compatible with high-throughput screening and proposes a new therapeutic option for LGMD2D caused by missense mutations of α-SG.
