Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunization against the Yellow fever virus (YFV) with the 17D live-attenuated vaccine is the most effective way to prevent the disease. However, unexpected severe adverse events can occur. They consist in a neurological impairment - neurological disease (YEL-AND), a YF-like illness - viscerotropic disease (YEL-AVD) or anaphylaxis. In this article, we describe the epidemiology, clinical and biological features of YEL-AND and YEL-AVD cases reported to the French National Reference Center for Arboviruses (NRCA) in the past 10 years. METHODS We conducted a national, retrospective study using the database of the NRCA from June 2012 to June 2022. All patients whose biological samples were sent to the NRCA for detection of YFV by serology and/or RT-qPCR for a suspected vaccine-associated adverse event were included. We collected data by reading medical records and conducted complementary neuro-immunological analysis, followed by a search for autoimmunity against type-1-interferon when samples were available at the NRCA. RESULTS There were 10 cases of YEL-AND and 2 cases of YEL-AVD reported to the NRCA in the past 10 years, which represented an overall incidence of 0.6 for 100 000 doses. A total of 6/12 cases were previously healthy patients (50%, mean age 31 years), and 4/12 cases had cardiovascular co-morbidities (42%, mean age 56 years). The majority of YEL-AND had a favourable outcome at 6 months of follow up. One YEL-AVD patient passed. In secondary analyses, we evidenced a significant blood cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier dysfunction, without intrathecal synthesis of immunoglobulin and without argument for a neuron damage. We further detected a significant rate of anti-type-1alpha interferon antibodies in 3/10 tested patients (2 YEL-AND and 1 YEL-AVD). CONCLUSION YEL-AND and YEL-AVD are rare events that can underlie defect in the innate immunity of apparently healthy or mild co-morbid subjects. Outcome was generally favourable in the YEL-AND cases of our series, but still life-threatening or even fatal in the YEL-AVD cases.

Abstract
Three autochthonous cases of Zika virus occurred in southern France in August 2019. Diagnosis relied on serology and transcription-mediated amplification. Attempts for virus isolation and ZIKV genome RT-PCR detection remained negative. Since the index case was not identified, we addressed the issue of genotyping and geographical origin by performing hemi-nested PCR and sequencing in the Pr gene. Analysis of 16 genotype-specific Single Nucleotides Polymorphisms identified the Asian genotype and suggested a Southeast Asia origin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Yellow fever vaccine exists for over 80 years and is considered to be relatively safe. However, in rare cases it can produce serious neurotropic and viscerotropic complications. We report a case of a patient who presented both viscerotropic and neurological manifestations after yellow fever vaccination. CASE PRESENTATION We describe the case of a 37 years old man who developed after the yellow fever vaccination a yellow fever vaccine-associated viscerotropic disease followed by acute uveitis. Prolonged detection of yellow fever RNA in blood and urine was consistent with yellow fever vaccine-associated adverse event. The final outcome was good, although with persistent fatigue over a few months. CONCLUSIONS Even if the yellow fever vaccine is relatively safe, physicians should be aware of its possible serious adverse effects.

Abstract
Intestinimonas massiliensis sp. nov strain GD2T is a new species of the genus Intestinimonas (the second, following Intestinimonas butyriciproducens gen. nov., sp. nov). First isolated from the gut microbiota of a healthy subject of French origin using a culturomics approach combined with taxono-genomics, it is strictly anaerobic, nonspore-forming, rod-shaped, with catalase- and oxidase-negative reactions. Its growth was observed after preincubation in an anaerobic blood culture enriched with sheep blood (5%) and rumen fluid (5%), incubated at 37°C. Its phenotypic and genotypic descriptions are presented in this paper with a full annotation of its genome sequence. This genome consists of 3,104,261 bp in length and contains 3,074 predicted genes, including 3,012 protein-coding genes and 62 RNA-coding genes. Strain GD2T significantly produces butyrate and is frequently found among available 16S rRNA gene amplicon datasets, which leads consideration of Intestinimonas massiliensis as an important human gut commensal.

Abstract
It is important to know whether an organism is able to synthesize all the oleic acid it needs. To determine this, it is sufficient to feed animals a diet containing essential fatty acids but totally lacking oleic acid, and then determine whether tissue concentrations of fatty acids of the (n-9) series are altered due to insufficient endogenous synthesis of oleic acid from stearic acid. In fact, the effects of a total oleic acid deficiency have not previously been studied because all the vegetable oils used in human and animal nutrition contain this fatty acid in variable amounts. Thus, we fed rats semipurified diets whose lipids (triglycerides) were synthesized chemically. Female rats were fed the diets for 3 wk before mating, and their pups (fed the same diets) were killed when 21 and 60 d old. Generally speaking, oleic acid deficiency resulted in a lower level of this acid in the various organs examined (liver, kidney, testes, heart, muscle and sciatic nerve in 21-d-old rats and liver, kidney, heart, muscle and sciatic nerve in 60-d-old rats). Brain, myelin and nerve endings were not affected at either age. This lower level was accompanied by a higher level of 16:1(n-7) and, to a lesser extent, 18:1(n-7). Dietary supplementation with oleic acid (1666 mg/100 g diet) for up to 21 d resulted in normal levels of this fatty acid in some organs (liver, heart, sciatic nerve) but not in others (kidney, muscle, testes) and a decrease in 16:1(n-7), which returned to about the same levels as in the control group in all organs except liver. Adding small or large amounts of stearic acid to the oleic acid-deficient diet had little or no effect on oleic acid levels in the tissues. We conclude that rats (particularly in liver) do not have sufficient synthesizing potential to guarantee the normal fatty acid composition of certain organs if oleic acid is totally absent in the diet.

Abstract
Possible alterations in blood-to-brain unidirectional transport of sucrose (mol. wt., 342), alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (mol. wt., 104), and L-phenylalanine (mol. wt., 165) induced by a diet deficient in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were studied with respect to blood-brain barrier function. Two groups of rats were for to two generations with a semisynthetic diet. One group of rats was fed a peanut oil+rapeseed oil diet which contained both essential fatty acids: linoleic acid (18:2 n-6) and alpha-linolenic acid, (18:3 n-3). Another group was fed a diet of peanut oil, this diet (containing 18:2 n-6) was deficient in alpha-linolenic acid. The experiments were performed at 6 months of age. Unidirectional transfer rate constants (Ki) of sucrose, alpha-aminoisobutyric acid and L-phenylalanine were measured. The diet based on peanut oil (deficient in n-3) caused a greater blood-to-brain transport of sucrose but not of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid or L-phenylalanine. These observations indicate that regardless of the mechanisms involved, alterations in essential fatty acids induced by diet can modulate to some extent the blood-brain transport of hydrophilic molecules without a carrier.

Abstract
In adult rats, 22:6(n - 3) dietary deficiency does not affect brain membranes, but has a significant effect on some other visceral organs. 60-day-old male rats fed a diet containing sufficient amounts of both linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid were divided into three groups. One group continued the same diet; the second was fed a diet containing 2% sunflower oil, the third was fed 10% sunflower oil (sunflower oil contains linoleic acid, but trace amount of alpha-linolenic acid). Animals were killed different times after receiving the new diets (1 to 31 weeks). For animals fed the diets containing only sunflower oil, deficiency in cervonic acid content (DHA, docosahexaenoic acid, 22:6(n - 3)) was not detected in whole brain, myelin or nerve endings within 31 weeks. In contrast, this acid progressively declined in liver, heart and testes up to 3 weeks and remained nearly stable thereafter. In parallel to the reduction of cervonic acid content, 22:5(n - 6) content increased in liver and heart, but not in testes. It also increased in brain, nerve endings and myelin from week 3, 6 and, 9 respectively. These results suggest that brain cervonic acid is highly preserved or is maintained at the expense of other organs.
