Evaluating the Potential Adverse Effects of Favipiravir on Biochemical, Histopathological, and Spermatological Parameters in Male Rats' Testicular Tissue

open access: yesJournal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Favipiravir is a selective RNA polymerase inhibitor and a broad‐spectrum antiviral drug. Favipiravir reduces cell proliferation by inhibiting RNA transcription, particularly in rapidly proliferating cells such as spermatogonia. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and mechanism of action of favipiravir (T‐705) on sperm quality ...

Lactate Dehydrogenase/Albumin to Urea Ratio: A Novel Prognostic Indicator for Adverse Outcomes in Patients With Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease with significant mortality risks. This study evaluated the predictive value of the lactate dehydrogenase/albumin to urea ratio (LAU) for lethal outcomes in SFTS patients.

Analysis of the medium (M) segment sequence of Guaroa virus and its comparison to other orthobunyaviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Guaroa virus (GROV), a segmented virus in the genus Orthobunyavirus, has been linked to the Bunyamwera serogroup (BUN) through cross-reactivity in complement fixation assays of S segment-encoded nucleocapsid protein determinants, and also to the ...

Exosome‐Mediated Lectin Pathway and Resistin‐MIF‐AA Metabolism Axis Drive Immune Dysfunction in Immune Thrombocytopenia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, March 13, 2025.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder marked by reduced platelet levels and heightened susceptibility to bleeding resulting from augmented autologous platelet destruction and diminished thrombopoiesis. It is found that the lectin pathway of the complement system, resistin, MIF, and AA metabolism may serve as promising targets for ...

Two Birds With One Stone: RNA Virus Strategies to Manipulate G3BP1 and Other Stress Granule Components

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Stress granules emerging during viral infection can play both pro‐ and antiviral roles. RNA viruses use various strategies to antagonize their formation, including the degradation, inhibition, or sequestration of G3BP1, a key stress granule protein. However, biochemical and structural insights into these mechanisms have been reported for only a handful

Exploring the druggability of the UEV domain of human TSG101 in search for broad‐spectrum antivirals

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract The ubiquitin E2 variant domain of TSG101 (TSG101‐UEV) plays a pivotal role in protein sorting and virus budding by recognizing PTAP motifs within ubiquitinated proteins. Disruption of TSG101‐UEV/PTAP interactions has emerged as a promising strategy for the development of host‐oriented broad‐spectrum antivirals with low susceptibility to ...

Powassan Virus Encephalitis in an Immunocompromised Patient: A Diagnostic Challenge With Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Powassan virus (POWV) is a tick‐borne flavivirus transmitted to humans by Ixodes ticks. In this report, we describe an immunocompromised patient who presented with progressive neurologic symptoms and was diagnosed with POWV encephalitis. Additionally, the patient tested positive for Jamestown Canyon virus (JCV), a mosquito‐borne orthobunyavirus ...
