Entry receptors — the gateway to alphavirus infection

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2023
Alphaviruses are enveloped, insect-transmitted, positive-sense RNA viruses that infect humans and other animals and cause a range of clinical manifestations, including arthritis, musculoskeletal disease, meningitis, encephalitis, and death. Over the past

A Chimeric Vesiculo/Alphavirus Is an Effective Alphavirus Vaccine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2013
ABSTRACTWhile a large number of mosquito-transmitted alphaviruses are known to cause serious human diseases, there are no licensed vaccines that protect against alphavirus infections. The alphavirus chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has caused multiple recent outbreaks of chikungunya fever.

Alphaviruses in Immunotherapy and Anticancer Therapy

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Alphaviruses have been engineered as expression vectors for vaccine development and gene therapy. Due to the feature of RNA self-replication, alphaviruses can provide exceptional direct cytoplasmic expression of transgenes based on the delivery of ...

Divergent Delivery and Expression Kinetics of Lipid and Polymeric Nanoparticles across mRNA Modalities. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Self‐amplifying (saRNA), linear (linRNA), and circular (circRNA) mRNAs are compared under standardized conditions using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and pABOL polymer. saRNA achieved superior expression, while linRNA and circRNA performance varied based on untranslated region elements and delivery method.

The alphavirus nonstructural protein 2 NTPase induces a host translational shut-off through phosphorylation of eEF2 via cAMP-PKA-eEF2K signaling

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a reemerging alphavirus. Since 2005, it has infected millions of people during outbreaks in Africa, Asia, and South/Central America.

Getah Virus (Alphavirus): An Emerging, Spreading Zoonotic Virus

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Getah virus (GETV) is a zoonotic virus transmitted by mosquitoes, belonging to the Togaviridae family, Alphavirus genus. It was first isolated from mosquitoes in Malaysia in 1955, being widespread in island countries in the South Pacific region.

Stress granule formation, disassembly, and composition are regulated by alphavirus ADP-ribosylhydrolase activity

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Alphaviruses are mosquito-borne RNA viruses that cause rash, arthritis, and neurologic disease. Despite a continued risk of outbreaks, there are no licensed interventions for any alphavirus.
