Alphaviruses

2010
Alphaviruses remain important emerging mosquito-borne, zoonotic pathogens that cause both localized human outbreaks and epizootics (e.g., Venezuelan equine encephalitis) and large human epidemics (e.g., Chikungunya). Alphaviruses are globally dispersed, and each continent has humans at risk from one or more of these arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses)

Tropical Arthritogenic Alphaviruses

Reumatología Clínica (English Edition), 2018
Tropical alphaviruses have special tropism for bone and joint tissue. Patients can develop chronic rheumatic disorders similar to rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. The prototype is Chikungunya virus, although other lesser known viruses in our environment such as Sindbis, Ross River, Mayaro, O'nyong nyong and Barmah Forest viruses have ...

ALPHAVIRUSES AND APOPTOSIS

International Reviews of Immunology, 2004
Many reports have indicated that infection with SV or SFV induces apoptosis both in cultured cells and in the CNS of mice. In general, the ability of virus strains to induce apoptosis correlates with their neurovirulence, although both apoptosis and neurovirulence are age dependent, i.e., resistance increases with age. SV can induce apoptosis simply by

Budding of alphaviruses

Trends in Microbiology, 1995
The icosahedral structures of alphaviruses and of the external shell of the viral nucleocapsid have been defined to very high resolutions, revealing details of the interactions between the glycoproteins to form trimeric spikes and the nucleocapsid.

Budding of alphaviruses

Virus Research, 2004
Alphaviruses are small highly ordered enveloped RNA viruses, which replicate very efficiently in the infected cell. They consist of a nucleocapsid (NC) and a surrounding membrane with glycoproteins. In the NC the positive single stranded RNA genome of the virus is enclosed by a T=4 icosahedral shell of capsid (C) proteins.

Arthritogenic alphaviruses—an overview

Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2012
Mosquito-transmitted alphaviruses causing human rheumatic disease are globally distributed and include chikungunya virus, Ross River virus, Barmah Forest virus, Sindbis virus, o'nyong-nyong virus and Mayaro virus. These viruses cause endemic disease and, occasionally, large epidemics; for instance, the ...

Opsonization of alphaviruses in hamsters

Journal of Medical Virology, 1983
AbstractImmune elimination of alphaviruses in immunized hamsters appears to involve formation of virus/antibody aggregates which are subsequently cleared from the circulation by cells of the reticuloendothelial system (RES). Virulent strains of Venezuelan (VEE) and Western equine encephalitis (WEE) viruses which were cleared slowly from the circulation

Alphaviruses in cancer immunotherapy

2023
Alphaviruses have frequently been engineered for cancer therapy, cancer immunotherapy, and cancer vaccine development. As members of self-replicating RNA viruses, alphaviruses provide high levels of transgene expression through efficient self-amplifying of their RNA genome in host cells.

Alphaviruses as expression vectors

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1997
Alphavirus vectors have been used for efficient high-level expression of a variety of topologically different proteins, allowing studies of protein transport, localization and functional activity in a broad range of host cells. Complex transmembrane proteins have been produced in large quantities through the establishment of scale-up technology ...
