Viral infections during pregnancy represent a major threat to maternal, fetal, and neonatal health outcome, with a high risk of vertical transmission. It is therefore crucial to understand the mechanisms underlying the interaction between viruses and placenta, which ensures communication between maternal and fetal compartments throughout pregnancy. Human placental models, both in vitro and ex vivo, enable to dissect in detail these interactions. By studying in detail viral entry, replication, and immune responses within the placenta, they represent ideal tools for analyzing the effects of various viruses on pregnancy outcomes. In addition, these models serve as platforms for evaluating diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to protect pregnant women and their babies from viral infections. This review examines recent advances, the main advantages and limitations of different human placental models and discusses their potential to improve our understanding of virus-placenta interactions, thereby contributing to improved maternal and fetal health.

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes sporadic cases in industrialized countries and endemic outbreaks in areas with lower sanitation standards. The wide host reservoir of HEV makes it a potential source of new zoonotic transmission and dissemination in humans. Thus, the perception of HEV as a confined ailment has shifted to one of global concern. Considering HEV’s environmental stability and heterogeneity in the host range of HEV’s genotypes, various transmission pathways and sources for HEV infections are plausible. Here, we provide an overview on HEV’s transmission routes and discuss the role of HEV as a foodborne zoonosis, as well as preventive measures and open research questions.

Epidemiological studies have provided strong evidence that Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) lytic replication is linked to cancer development. Evidence of abortive lytic replication in some tumors and infections with recombinant viruses incapable of lytic replication in animal models have reinforced this view. Furthermore, multiple lytic proteins have been shown to induce genetic instability, a well-characterized precancerous state. In particular, lytic proteins dysregulated the DNA damage response, interfered with cell cycle progression, and induced the development of structural genetic abnormalities. However, there is so far no direct evidence from in vivo or in vitro studies that lytic replication alone can induce cancer. Here, we critically review the currently available evidence that EBV lytic replication contributes to cancer development and suggest future research directions.

流行病学研究提供了强有力的证据表明，eb病毒（EBV）裂解复制与癌症的发展有关。在一些肿瘤中裂解复制失败的证据和在动物模型中无法裂解复制的重组病毒感染的证据加强了这一观点。此外，多种裂解蛋白已被证明可诱导遗传不稳定，这是一种典型的癌前状态。特别是，裂解蛋白失调DNA损伤反应，干扰细胞周期进程，并诱导结构遗传异常的发展。然而，到目前为止，还没有来自体内或体外研究的直接证据表明，裂解复制本身可以诱导癌症。在这里，我们批判性地回顾了EBV裂解复制有助于癌症发展的现有证据，并提出了未来的研究方向。

Influenza viruses pose significant global health threats, causing widespread morbidity and mortality due to their genetic variability and rapid evolution. Traditional experimental models, such as immortalized cell lines and animal models, often fall short of accurately replicating the complex interactions between influenza viruses and the human immune system. Recent advancements, including reconstituted human airway epithelia, lung-on-a-chip models, and human airway organoids, provide more accurate representations of human respiratory physiology and immune responses. These alternatives enable in-depth investigations into viral propagation, host immune responses, and tissue damage. While each model has its unique advantages and limitations, integrating them could offer a more comprehensive understanding of influenza pathogenesis. This knowledge can drive the development and evaluation of more effective vaccines and therapeutic interventions, enhancing preparedness for future influenza outbreaks.

Arboviruses are transmitted by arthropods, and their spread from endemic to nonendemic regions has been accelerated by deforestation, climate change, and global mobility. Arbovirus infection in human results in symptoms ranging from mild to life-threatening, with the impairment of central nervous system functions being reported in severe cases. Despite its clinical relevance, the mechanisms by which arboviruses led to neural dysfunction are still poorly understood. The lack of a widespread human central nervous system model to study the virus–host interaction challenges the advance of our knowledge on these mechanisms. In this context, human brain-derived ex vivo models have the advantage of preserving cellular diversity, cell connections, and tissue cytoarchitecture found in human brain, raising them as a powerful strategy to elucidate the cellular-molecular alterations underlying brain diseases. Here, we review recent advances in the field of neurotropic arboviruses obtained using ex vivo human brain tissue as the experimental model.

Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating disease with a complex clinical presentation and an unknown etiology. Various viral infections have been proposed as potential triggers of ME/CFS onset, but no specific pathogen has been identified in all cases of postinfectious ME/CFS. The symptomatology of the postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2, or long COVID, mirrors that of ME/CFS, with nearly half of long COVID patients meeting ME/CFS diagnostic criteria. The influx of newly diagnosed patients has reinvigorated interest in ME/CFS pathogenesis research, with an emphasis on viral triggers. This review summarizes the current understanding of ME/CFS research on viral triggers, including blood virome screening studies. To further elucidate the molecular basis of ME/CFS, there is a need to develop innovative bioinformatics tools capable of analyzing complex virome data and integrating multiomics information.

肌痛性脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征（ME/CFS）是一种使人衰弱的疾病，临床表现复杂，病因不明。各种病毒感染被认为是肌痛性脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征发病的潜在诱因，但在感染后肌痛性脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征的所有病例中，尚未发现特异性病原体。SARS-CoV-2急性后遗症或长COVID的症状与ME/CFS如出一辙，近一半的长COVID患者符合ME/CFS的诊断标准。大量新确诊患者的涌入重新激发了人们对 ME/CFS 发病机制研究的兴趣，研究重点是病毒诱因。本综述总结了目前对 ME/CFS 病毒诱因研究的理解，包括血液病毒组筛选研究。为了进一步阐明 ME/CFS 的分子基础，有必要开发能够分析复杂病毒组数据和整合多组学信息的创新生物信息学工具。

Zoonotic viruses with the ability to replicate in the human respiratory tract pose a threat to public health. Organoids, which are highly representative, multicellular models representing specific organs or tissues, can aid in our understanding of the pathogenesis, pathogenicity, transmissibility, and reservoir circulation dynamics of zoonotic viruses. Organoid studies can facilitate the rapid selection of antiviral therapies identification of potential reservoir species and intermediate hosts, and inform the selection of suitable laboratory animal models. We review the use of human- and animal-derived organoid models from multiple organs to investigate the threat of emerging zoonotic viruses that cause respiratory disease.

The 2013–2016 Ebola virus disease epidemic and the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic galvanized tremendous growth in models for emerging zoonotic and vector-borne viruses. Therefore, we have reviewed the main goals and methods of models to guide scientists and decision-makers. The elements of models for emerging viruses vary across spectrums: from understanding the past to forecasting the future, using data across space and time, and using statistical versus mechanistic methods. Hybrid/ensemble models and artificial intelligence offer new opportunities for modeling. Despite this progress, challenges remain in translating models into actionable decisions, particularly in areas at highest risk for viral disease outbreaks. To address this issue, we must identify gaps in models for specific viruses, strengthen validation, and involve policymakers in model development.

2013-2016 年埃博拉病毒病的流行和 2019 年冠状病毒病的大流行激发了新出现的人畜共患病毒和病媒传染病毒模型的巨大发展。因此，我们回顾了模型的主要目标和方法，为科学家和决策者提供指导。新发病毒模型的要素各不相同：从了解过去到预测未来，使用跨时空数据，以及使用统计方法和机理方法。混合/集合模型和人工智能为建模提供了新的机遇。尽管取得了这些进展，但在将模型转化为可操作的决策方面仍然存在挑战，尤其是在病毒性疾病爆发风险最高的地区。要解决这个问题，我们必须找出特定病毒模型的不足之处，加强验证工作，并让决策者参与模型开发。

The koala retrovirus, KoRV, is one of the few models for understanding the health consequences of retroviral colonization of the germline. Such colonization events transition exogenous infectious retroviruses to Mendelian traits or endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). KoRV is currently in a transitional state from exogenous retrovirus to ERV, which in koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) has been associated with strongly elevated levels of neoplasia. In this review, we describe what is currently known about the associations and underlying mechanisms of KoRV-induced neoplasia.

考拉逆转录病毒（KoRV）是了解逆转录病毒在生殖系定植对健康影响的少数模型之一。这种定殖事件将外源性传染性逆转录病毒转变为孟德尔性状或内源性逆转录病毒（ERVs）。KoRV 目前正处于从外源性逆转录病毒到 ERV 的过渡阶段，考拉（Phascolarctos cinereus）的肿瘤发病率与此密切相关。在这篇综述中，我们将介绍目前已知的有关 KoRV 诱发肿瘤的关联和内在机制。
