Institut Pasteur isolates strains of coronavirus 2019-nCoV detected in France
As well as sequencing the whole genome of coronavirus 2019-nCoV, the Institut Pasteur continued to work on the samples taken from the first confirmed cases. The quality of these initial samples enabled rapid cell-culture isolation of the new virus. The Institut Pasteur's scientists now have access to the virus responsible for the infection. The isolation of the virus paves the way for new...

When severe infection causes long-term mood disorders: A promising avenue to prevent mental illness following a transient infection
The brain is able to detect and regulate localized or systemic inflammation by using two communication pathways. The first, humoral, makes use of specific brain structures that enable circulating inflammatory mediators to enter the brain. The second, neural, involves nerves whose sensory afferents transmit the inflammatory signal detected at local level. The vagus nerve therefore uses identified...

SARS-CoV-2 hijacks nanotubes between neurons to infect them
COVID-19 often leads to neurological symptoms, such as a loss of taste or smell, or cognitive impairments (including memory loss and concentration difficulties), both during the acute phase of the disease and over the long term with "long COVID" syndrome. But the way in which the infection reaches the brain was previously unknown. Scientists from Institut Pasteur and CNRS laboratories have used...

Health crises, information crises: exploring the roots of the term "infodemic"
How do the epidemiological and media dimensions of a health crisis fit together? How is the spread of a virus linked to the spread of information about it? Several scientists, communication experts and ethics specialists came together to explore these questions at a conference held at the Institut Pasteur in December.

The untapped potential of cycling for public health and the climate
A national study has revealed that cycling benefits health, the economy and the climate in France. The findings show that cycling can prevent nearly 2,000 deaths each year and that every kilometer cycled saves €1 in medical costs. The unprecedented study was conducted by researchers in the joint CNAM-Institut Pasteur PACRI unit, in collaboration with the CNRS.

Our own RNA triggers an immune response to viral infections
An immune receptor normally known for identifying viral RNA is also capable of binding to cellular RNA to induce immune defenses. This mechanism could trigger immunity against viruses before they become detectable.
