Abstract
Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) are the predominant etiological agent of viral gastroenteritis in all age groups worldwide. Mutations over the years have affected noroviruses' responses to environmental conditions due to the arrangement of amino acid residues exposed on the VP1 capsid surface of each strain. The GII.4 HuNoV genotype has been the predominant variant for decades, while the GII.17 genotype has often been detected in East Asia since 2014. Here, GII.17 and GII.4 baculovirus-expressed VLPs (virus-like particles) were used to study the biological (binding to HuNoV ligand, namely the ABO and Lewis antigens) and physicochemical properties (size, morphology, and charge) of the HuNoV capsid under different conditions (temperature, pH, and ionic strength). GII.17 showed stability at low and high ionic strength, while GII.4 aggregated at an ionic strength of 10 mM. The nature of the buffers influences the morphology and stability of the VLPs. Here, both VLPs were highly stable from pH 7-8.5 at 25 °C. VLPs retained HBGA binding capability for the pH, ionic strength and temperature encountered in the stomach (fed state) and the small intestine. Increasing the temperature to above 65 °C altered the morphology of VLPs, causing aggregation, and decreased their affinity to HBGAs. Comparing both isolates, GII.17 showed a better stability profile and higher affinity to HBGAs than GII.4, making them interesting candidate particles for a future norovirus vaccine. Biological and physicochemical studies of VLPs are as pertinent as ever in view of the future arrival of VLP-based HuNoV vaccines.

Abstract
Human respiratory viral infections are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. Among the various respiratory viruses, coronaviruses (e.g., SARS-CoV-2) have created the greatest challenge and most frightening health threat worldwide. Human coronaviruses typically infect the upper respiratory tract, causing illnesses that range from common cold-like symptoms to severe acute respiratory infections. Several promising vaccine formulations have become available since the beginning of 2021. Nevertheless, achievement of herd immunity is still far from being realized. Social distancing remains the only effective measure against SARS-CoV-2 infection. Nanobiotechnology enables the design of nanobiosensors. These nanomedical diagnostic devices have opened new vistas for early detection of viral infections. The present review outlines recent research on the effectiveness of nanoplatforms as diagnostic and antiviral tools against coronaviruses. The biological properties of coronavirus and infected host organs are discussed. The challenges and limitations encountered in combating SARS-CoV-2 are highlighted. Potential nanodevices such as nanosensors, nanobased vaccines, and smart nanomedicines are subsequently presented for combating current and future mutated versions of coronaviruses.
