mRNA Therapeutics Beyond Infectious Diseases: Expanding Therapeutic Applications and Future Perspectives

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Messenger RNA therapeutics are rapidly expanding beyond infectious diseases into oncology, autoimmune disorders, protein replacement therapy, cardiovascular and neurological diseases, and regenerative medicine. Advances in RNA engineering and targeted delivery are driving the development of safe, programmable, and precision therapeutics for diverse ...

Serological and spatial analysis of alphavirus and flavivirus prevalence and risk factors in a rural community in western Kenya.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Alphaviruses, such as chikungunya virus, and flaviviruses, such as dengue virus, are (re)-emerging arboviruses that are endemic in tropical environments.

Molecular and Serological Screening of West Nile and Usutu Virus in Birds and Humans: A Sentinel Study in Finland

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
We developed sensitive real‐time PCR assays for West Nile virus and Usutu virus to screen bird and human samples in Finland. Although no positive samples were detected, active migratory flyways and recent cases in neighbouring countries highlight the risk of future introduction and the need for continued surveillance.

Full length and protease domain activity of chikungunya virus nsP2 differ from other alphavirus nsP2 proteases in recognition of small peptide substrates

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2015
Alphavirus nsP2 proteins are multifunctional and essential for viral replication. The protease role of nsP2 is critical for virus replication as only the virus protease activity is used for processing of the viral non-structural polypeptide.

Noncapped Genomic RNA Are Critical for Alphaviral Infection and Pathogenicity

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Alphaviruses are positive-sense RNA arthropod-borne viruses that represent a significant threat to public health. During alphaviral replication, significant quantities of viral genomic RNAs that lack a canonical 5’ cap structure are produced and packaged

Synthesis of Alphavirus-Specified RNA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1978
UV irradiation of chicken fibroblasts infected with Semliki Forest or Sindbis virus has been used to investigate the mechanism of synthesis of 42S and 26S RNA, the major plus-strand virus-specified RNAs formed during the multiplication of standard virus particles.

Sea Lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) Harbour Putative Fish Pathogens: Insights From Illumina and Nanopore Sequencing

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ectoparasites that penetrate host skin can act as biological or mechanical vectors for pathogens and, in some cases, serve as reservoirs. Crustacean ectoparasites of fish are potential vectors of pathogens, which is especially relevant for obligate pathogens (e.g., Aeromonas salmonicida) with limited seawater survival. Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus

siRNA Screen Identifies Trafficking Host Factors that Modulate Alphavirus Infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Little is known about the repertoire of cellular factors involved in the replication of pathogenic alphaviruses. To uncover molecular regulators of alphavirus infection, and to identify candidate drug targets, we performed a high-content imaging-based ...

Decoding the Black Box of Fish Vaccines Efficacy in Basic and Applied Contexts

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Vaccines are the frontline defense in aquaculture, yet predicting their real‐world performance remains a tricky puzzle. Unlike terrestrial veterinary vaccines, fish vaccines largely operate through “Black Box” processes, where we observe the outcomes but rarely understand the underlying immune mechanisms. Laboratory trials, though informative,
