Antiviral Immunity in the Fruit Fly, Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, is an extremely useful model to study innate immunity mechanisms. A fundamental understanding of these mechanisms as they relate to various pathogens has come to light over the past 30 years.

A protein with simultaneous capsid scaffolding and dsRNA-binding activities enhances the birnavirus capsid mechanical stability [PDF]
Viral capsids are metastable structures that perform many essential processes; they also act as robust cages during the extracellular phase. Viruses can use multifunctional proteins to optimize resources (e.g., VP3 in avian infectious bursal disease ...

Virucidal potential of Prosopis spicigera and Mangifera indica on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells
Introduction: The treatment of viral infections with the available antiviral drugs is not free of side effects. Therefore, in the present study, our group focused on antiviral activity against Newcastle disease (NDV) and IBD viruses using medicinal ...

Adaptation And Attenuation Of Very Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus In Avian And Mammalian Cell Cultures For Vaccine Development [PDF]
Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is an immunosuppressive virus causing infectious bursal disease (IBD) outbreaks since 1957. The economic impact of IBD is influenced by strain of virus, route of infection, intercurrent primary and secondary ...

The T=1 capsid protein of Penicillium chrysogenum virus is formed by a repeated helix-rich core indicative of gene duplication [PDF]
et al.Penicillium chrysogenum virus (PcV), a member of the Chrysoviridae family, is a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) fungal virus with a multipartite genome, with each RNA molecule encapsidated in a separate particle.

Dynamic alterations in T-lymphocyte subsets assessed by flow cytometry in chickens following exposure to infectious bursal disease virus: A systematic review [PDF]
Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is a significant pathogen in poultry, causing acute immunosuppressive disease in young chickens. While B-lymphocyte involvement in IBDV pathogenesis is known, the role of T-cells is incompletely understood.
