A Review of Alphavirus Replication in Neurons

open access: yesNeuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1998
Alphaviruses are important causes of mosquito-borne viral encephalitis. The prototype alphavirus, Sindbis virus, causes encephalomyelitis in mice. The primary target cell for nervous system infection is the neuron. Thus, Sindbis virus infection of mice provides a model system for studying virus-neuron interactions. The outcome of infection is dependent

BST2/Tetherin Inhibition of Alphavirus Exit

open access: yes, 2015
Alphaviruses such as chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and Semliki Forest virus (SFV) are small enveloped RNA viruses that bud from the plasma membrane. Tetherin/BST2 is an interferon-induced host membrane protein that inhibits the release of many enveloped ...

Mouse models of alphavirus-induced inflammatory disease

open access: yes, 2015
Part of the Togaviridae family, alphaviruses are arthropod-borne viruses that are widely distributed throughout the globe. Alphaviruses are able to infect a variety of vertebrate hosts, but in humans, infection can result in extensive morbidity and ...

Safety and immunogenicity of an adjuvanted chikungunya virus virus-like particle (CHIKV VLP) vaccine in previous recipients of other alphavirus vaccines versus alphavirus vaccine-naive controls: an open-label, parallel-group, age-matched, sex-matched, phase 2 randomised controlled study

open access: yes
BACKGROUND: Immune responses to alphavirus vaccines might be impaired when heterologous alphavirus vaccines are administered sequentially. We aimed to compare immunogenicity and safety of a chikungunya virus virus-like particle (CHIKV VLP) vaccine in ...
