The interferon-induced exonuclease ISG20 exerts antiviral activity through upregulation of type I interferon response proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The host immune responses to infection lead to the production of type I interferon (IFN), and the upregulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) reduces virus replication and virus dissemination within a host.

A Viral RNA Silencing Suppressor Modulates Reactive Oxygen Species Levels to Induce the Autophagic Degradation of Dicer‐Like and Argonaute‐Like Proteins

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Understanding the virus‐host arms race has been a fascinating topic in virology; contributing significantly to the development of treatments and control strategies for viral diseases. CHV1 employs a sophisticated counter‐defense mechanism in its fungal host by utilizing a viral silencing suppressor to inhibit fungal FMN reductase; thereby modulating ...

Understanding the Wolbachia-mediated inhibition of arboviruses in mosquitoes: progress and challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a considerable threat to human and animal health, yet effective control measures have proven difficult to implement, and novel means of controlling their replication in arthropod vectors, such as mosquitoes, are

Identification of TPRA1 as a Novel Receptor and Predictive Biomarker for Oncolytic Virus M1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies transmembrane protein adipocyte‐associated 1 (TPRA1) as a novel receptor for oncolytic virus M1 (OVM). TPRA1's ectodomain binds OVM particles, while its intracellular domain facilitates virus internalization, promoting efficient viral entry.

Alphavirus vectors for cancer therapy

open access: yesVirus Research, 2010
Alphaviruses contain a single strand RNA genome that can be easily modified to express heterologous genes at very high levels in a broad variety of cells, including tumor cells. Alphavirus vectors can be used as viral particles containing a packaged vector RNA, or directly as nucleic acids in the form of RNA or DNA. In the latter case alphavirus RNA is

Identification of a non-canonical G3BP-binding sequence in a Mayaro virus nsP3 hypervariable domain

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Ras-GTPase-activating SH3 domain-binding-proteins 1 (G3BP1) and 2 (G3BP2) are multifunctional RNA-binding proteins involved in stress granule nucleation, previously identified as essential cofactors of Old World alphaviruses.

Mutations in the E2 glycoprotein and the 3\u27 untranslated region enhance chikungunya virus virulence in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-transmitted alphavirus that causes debilitating musculoskeletal pain and inflammation and can persist for months to years after acute infection.

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but

Control of Alphavirus Replication in Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesViruses 2020—Novel Concepts in Virology, 2020
Sindbis virus causes age-dependent encephalomyelitis in mice. Young mice and immature neurons replicate the virus to high titers and die from infection while older mice and mature neurons restrict replication and survive infection. Studies to identify factors that affect maturation-dependent virus replication in neurons have used AP-7 rat olfactory ...
