DHHC enzymes in alphavirus glycoprotein acylation: A target for broad-spectrum antiviral therapy

Cell Reports
Summary: Alphaviruses are mosquito-transmitted viruses that cause severe zoonotic diseases. Their envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2, undergo cysteine acylation, a process critical for virus infection but previously undefined mechanistically.

Land‐Based Functional Rehabilitation Versus Aquatic Therapy on the Quality of Life of Individuals With Chronic Chikungunya: A Randomized Clinical Trial

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

The Role of Innate Cells During Alphavirus Chikungunya Infection

Viruses
Alphavirus chikungunya (CHIKV) is an arthropod-borne alphavirus of the Togaviridae family, transmitted primarily by Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus mosquitoes. CHIKV infection often results in debilitating manifestations that compromise quality of life and generate significant socioeconomic impacts.
