Mannose binding lectin is required for alphavirus-induced arthritis/myositis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mosquito-borne alphaviruses such as chikungunya virus and Ross River virus (RRV) are emerging pathogens capable of causing large-scale epidemics of virus-induced arthritis and myositis.

Novel Wide‐Spectrum Virucidal Lipid Nanoparticles

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
POSTAN is a novel broad‐spectrum antiviral nanoparticle that combines safety with potent virucidal activity. Composed of biocompatible lipids, it mimics heparan sulfate proteoglycans and lipid rafts exploited by viruses, thereby dismantling viral envelopes and blocking replication.

Differential responses of the mosquito Aedes albopictus from the Indian Ocean region to two chikungunya isolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceBACKGROUND: Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are both vectors of chikungunya virus (CHIKV). The two Aedes species co-exist in the Indian Ocean region and were involved in the 2005-2006 CHIKV outbreaks.

Dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus surveillance in blood donors in Brazil, 2019–2021

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 2, Page 196-201, February 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives Arbovirus infections are a major public health concern in Brazil and an ongoing blood safety concern. Periodic outbreaks of such infections are common in the general population. This study aimed to establish the rates of dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus (DENV, CHIKV, ZIKV) RNAemia among blood donors at six public ...

Serological and Molecular Epidemiology of Chikungunya Virus Infection in Vietnam, 2017–2019

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Chikungunya fever is an acute febrile illness caused by the chikungunya virus (CHIKV), which is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Since 1965, only a few studies with limited scope have been conducted on CHIKV in Vietnam.

Loss of TLR3 aggravates CHIKV replication and pathology due to an altered virus-specific neutralizing antibody response

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014
RNA‐sensing toll‐like receptors (TLRs) mediate innate immunity and regulate anti‐viral response. We show here that TLR3 regulates host immunity and the loss of TLR3 aggravates pathology in Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection.

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 33-54, 15 January 2026.
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but

Development of Proniosome Gel Formulation for CHIKV Infection

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Given the increasing aging population and the rising prevalence of musculoskeletal diseases due to obesity and injury, urgent research is needed to formulate new treatment alternatives, as current options remain inadequate. Viruses can exacerbate arthritis and worsen symptoms in patients with pre-existing osteoarthritis.

Cytokines and Chemokines in Chikungunya Virus Infection: Protection or Induction of Pathology

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection has been commonly detected in tropical countries. The clinical manifestations of CHIKV infection are similar to those of rheumatoid arthritis.

Chikungunya antibodies detected in non-human primates and rats in three Indian Ocean islands after the 2006 ChikV outbreak

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2014
The role of terrestrial vertebrates in the epidemiology of chikungunya disease is poorly understood. We evaluated their exposure and amplification role during the 2006 chikungunya outbreak in the Indian Ocean.
