Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 1167-1179, June 2026.
Zebrafish, with high genetic homology to humans, serves as a powerful vertebrate model for disease modeling and drug discovery. Integration of CRISPR/Cas9 technology enables precise genome editing, facilitating the development of translational models for human diseases.

Greater than the sum of its parts: understanding alphavirus infection through characterization of nonstructural polyproteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Alphaviruses are enveloped, positive strand RNA viruses that are capable of causing a variety of symptoms including arthritis, encephalitis, and even death in humans. Chikungunya virus, a member of the alphavirus genus, is a recently emerging pathogen in

Virus-based vaccine vectors with distinct replication mechanisms differentially infect and activate dendritic cells

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2021
The precise mechanism by which many virus-based vectors activate immune responses remains unknown. Dendritic cells (DCs) play key roles in priming T cell responses and controlling virus replication, but their functions in generating protective immunity ...

Poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) Nanoparticles for IL‐12 Self‐Amplifying RNA Delivery in Glioblastoma Models

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 38, 11 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most lethal brain cancers, with median survival rarely exceeding 15 months after diagnosis. Interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) is a potent immunostimulatory cytokine capable of reshaping the tumor microenvironment (TME), yet its clinical translation is hindered by systemic toxicity and short half‐life. RNA‐based local

Effects of Palmitoylation of Replicase Protein nsP1 on Alphavirus Infection

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2000
ABSTRACT The membrane-associated alphavirus RNA replication complex contains four virus-encoded subunits, the nonstructural proteins nsP1 to nsP4. Semliki Forest virus (SFV) nsP1 is hydrophobically modified by palmitoylation of cysteines 418 to 420.

Characterization of an In Vitro Model of Alphavirus Infection of Immature and Mature Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2005
ABSTRACT Terminally differentiated, mature neurons are essential cells that are not easily regenerated. Neurotropic viruses, such as Sindbis virus (SV), cause encephalomyelitis through their ability to replicate in neurons. SV causes the death of immature neurons, while mature neurons can often survive infection.

Dengue Virus Capsid Protein Interaction With Nucleic Acids

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 52, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Binding of dengue virus capsid protein (DENV C) to ssDNA alters Trp fluorescence intensity, lifetime, and anisotropy, revealing structural rearrangements in the complex and suggesting a possible association with liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) transmission has greatly increased in the last decade, partly due to the ...

Human Antibody Responses to Emerging Mayaro Virus and Cocirculating Alphavirus Infections Examined by Using Structural Proteins from Nine New and Old World Lineages

open access: yesmSphere, 2018
Mayaro virus (MAYV), Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV), and chikungunya virus (CHIKV) are vector-borne alphaviruses that cocirculate in South America.

Post‐Infectious Fatigue and Depression Following Dengue: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Associated Factors

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Post‐dengue fatigue syndrome is a debilitating long‐term condition that affects daily activities, quality of life, and productivity. Its underlying mechanisms remain unclear, but clinical similarities with post‐dengue depression complicate differentiation.
