Peptide aptamer-based time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for CHIKV diagnosis
Abstract Background Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and Dengue virus (DENV) have similar clinical symptoms, which often induce misdiagnoses. Therefore, an antigen detection diagnostic system that can clearly identify these two viruses is desirable.

A human genome-wide loss-of-function screen identifies effective chikungunya antiviral drugs [PDF]
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a globally spreading alphavirus against which there is no commercially available vaccine or therapy. Here we use a genome-wide siRNA screen to identify 156 proviral and 41 antiviral host factors affecting CHIKV replication ...

The interferon-stimulated gene IFITM3 restricts infection and pathogenesis of arthritogenic and encephalitic alphaviruses [PDF]
Host cells respond to viral infections by producing type I interferon (IFN), which induces the expression of hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs).

Development of Neutralization Assay Using an eGFP Chikungunya Virus
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a member of the Alphavirus genus, is an important human emerging/re-emerging pathogen. Currently, there are no effective antiviral drugs or vaccines against CHIKV infection. Herein, we construct an infectious clone of CHIKV and

Understanding the Wolbachia-mediated inhibition of arboviruses in mosquitoes: progress and challenges [PDF]
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a considerable threat to human and animal health, yet effective control measures have proven difficult to implement, and novel means of controlling their replication in arthropod vectors, such as mosquitoes, are

Preparation and application of chikungunya pseudovirus containing double reporter genes
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a highly infectious and rapidly spread viral pathogen, is classified as a pathogenic agent at the biosafety level 3. Operation of live authentic CHIKV needs a specific laboratory with the P3 or above containment, which greatly ...
