Riboflavin, a Potent Neuroprotective Vitamin: Focus on Flavivirus and Alphavirus Proteases
Microorganisms, 2022 Several neurotropic viruses are members of the flavivirus and alphavirus families. Infections caused by these viruses may cause long-term neurological sequelae in humans.

Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.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.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.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

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Waterborne horizontal transmission of viral diseases in fish relies on the release of infectious virus particles (termed shedding) into the aquatic environment. Both the rate and duration of shedding are critical for efficient viral spread, making interventions that reduce shedding valuable for disease control.

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Chikungunya may progress to a chronic phase marked by persistent pain and functional impairment, reducing the quality of life. Exercise‐based rehabilitation is essential, though comparisons between different modalities remain scarce. Exercises in an aquatic environment can be designed as a task‐oriented intervention that

Advanced 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

Alphavirus Transducing System: Tools for Visualizing Infection in Mosquito Vectors [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2010 Alphavirus transducing systems (ATSs) are important tools for expressing genes of interest (GOI) during infection. ATSs are derived from cDNA clones of mosquito-borne RNA viruses (genus Alphavirus; family Togaviridae). The Alphavirus genus contains about 30 different mosquito-borne virus species.

Dengue Virus Capsid Protein Interaction With Nucleic Acids
BioFactors, 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 ...
