Nytt Bostonvirus och frågan om "Gain of Function"

Var går gränsen?

Vi behöver ta oss en ordentlig funderare över vad som pågår på vissa laboratorier runt om i världen. Det finns något som kallas ”Gain of Function”(GOF). Vi behöver diskutera denna forskning då vi har svårt att se att det är etiskt försvarbart med tanke på riskerna och om det finns någon nytta med att utföra den över huvud taget.

Vår senast utlysta pandemi kan vara resultatet av ett misstag men utredning pågår så vi kan inte hävda att det är så. Vad vi däremot med säkerhet vet, är att det pågår liknande forskning som utfördes bland annat i Wuhan även på andra håll i världen. Därför vill vi veta vad det möjligtvis kan finnas för nytta med att experimentera fram ett än mer dödligt virus än det vi precis haft en alldeles för nära relation med?

Please share this video, this research must STOP. Gain of function research in the USA today using enhanced potential pandemic pathogen (ePPP) research

This should be totally forbidden, it's playing with fire

Dr Richard Ebright, Rutgers University, New Brunswick

The research is a clear example of gain of function research.

If we are to avoid a next lab-generated pandemic,

it is imperative that oversight of enhanced potential pandemic pathogen research be strengthened.

it is imperative that officials at US-government agencies,

who repeatedly have placed the public at risk by repeatedly violating the existing policies be held accountable

Prof David Livermore, microbiology, University of East Anglia

given the strong likelihood that the Covid pandemic originated from the escape of a lab-manipulated coronavirus in Wuhan,

these experiments seem profoundly unwise

Role of spike in the pathogenic and antigenic behavior of SARS-CoV-2 BA.1 Omicron

Predominant SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (BA.1) is highly transmissible,

even in fully vaccinated individuals,

and causes attenuated disease compared with other major viral variants recognized to date

The Omicron spike (S) protein, unusually large number of mutations,

is considered the major driver of these phenotypes

We generated chimeric recombinant SARS-CoV-2

A chimera or chimeric virus

One virus containing genetic material derived from two or more distinct viruses

A new hybrid microorganism,

created by joining nucleic acid fragments from two or more different microorganisms,

in which each of at least two of the fragments,

contain essential genes necessary for replication

We generated chimeric recombinant SARS-CoV-2

Encoding the S gene of Omicron in the backbone of an ancestral SARS-CoV-2 isolate,

and compared this virus with the naturally circulating Omicron variant.

The Omicron S-bearing virus robustly escapes vaccine-induced humoral immunity,

mainly due to mutations in the receptor-binding motif,

yet unlike naturally occurring Omicron,

efficiently replicates in cell lines and primary-like distal lung cells.

In K18-hACE2 mice

https://www.jax.org/strain/034860

K18-hACE2 transgenic mice express human ACE2,

including airway epithelia where infections typically begin.

Because K18-hACE2 are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV viruses, they are useful for studying antiviral therapies to COVID-19 and SARS.

In K18-hACE2 mice

Omicron causes mild, non-fatal infection,

the Omicron S-carrying virus inflicts severe disease with a mortality rate of 80%.

This indicates that while the vaccine escape of Omicron is defined by mutations in S,

major determinants of viral pathogenicity reside outside of S.
