Vaccine Candidates against Arenavirus Infections

open access: yesVaccines, 2023
The viral family Arenaviridae contains several members that cause severe, and often lethal, diseases in humans. Several highly pathogenic arenaviruses are classified as Risk Group 4 agents and must be handled in the highest biological containment ...

Challenges in predicting protein-protein interactions of understudied viruses: Arenavirus-human interactions. [PDF]

open access: yesComput Struct Biotechnol J
Understanding protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between viruses and human proteins is crucial for uncovering infection mechanisms and identifying potential therapeutic targets. The ability to generalize PPI predictive models across understudied viruses

Contrasting Modes of New World Arenavirus Neutralization by Immunization-Elicited Monoclonal Antibodies.

open access: yesMBio, 2022
The GP1 subcomponent of the New World arenavirus GP is a primary target of the neutralizing antibody response, which has been shown to be effective in the prevention and treatment of infection.

Distinct Molecular Mechanisms of Host Immune Response Modulation by Arenavirus NP and Z Proteins

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Endemic to West Africa and South America, mammalian arenaviruses can cross the species barrier from their natural rodent hosts to humans, resulting in illnesses ranging from mild flu-like syndromes to severe and fatal haemorrhagic zoonoses. The increased

Molecular organization of the New World arenavirus spike glycoprotein complex. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Microbiol
Of the multiple arenaviruses that cause haemorrhagic fevers in the Americas, all lack reliable therapeutic options, and only one has a vaccine. The arenavirus glycoprotein complex (GPC) binds cellular receptors and mediates pH-dependent fusion of viral ...

Analysis of the Cell Type-Dependence on the Arenavirus Z-Mediated Virus-Like Particle Production

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Several arenaviruses are highly pathogenic to humans, causing hemorrhagic fever. Discovery of anti-arenavirus drug candidates is urgently needed, although the molecular basis of the host- and organ-specific pathogenicity remains to be fully elucidated ...

Characterization of non-standard viral genomes during arenavirus infections identifies prominent S RNA intergenic region deletions

open access: yesmBio
Arenaviruses, a family of negative-sense RNA viruses spread by rodents, are a leading cause of severe hemorrhagic fever in humans. Due to a paucity of antivirals and vaccines for arenaviruses, there is a need to identify new mechanisms for interfering ...
