A Dengue Virus Type 2 (DENV-2) NS4B-Interacting Host Factor, SERP1, Reduces DENV-2 Production by Suppressing Viral RNA Replication [PDF]
Host cells infected with dengue virus (DENV) often trigger endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, a key process that allows viral reproduction, without killing the host cells until the late stage of the virus life-cycle.

Multiple introductions and country-wide spread of DENV-2 genotype II (Cosmopolitan) in Brazil. [PDF]
Abstract Dengue virus serotype 2, genotype Cosmopolitan (DENV-2-GII), is one of the most widespread DENV strains globally. In the USA, DENV-2 epidemics have been dominated by DENV-2 genotype Asian-American (DENV-2-GIII), and the first cases of DENV-2-GII were only described in 2019, in Peru, and in 2021 in Brazil.

Multiple arboviral infections during a DENV-2 outbreak in Solomon Islands. [PDF]
Abstract Background Solomon Islands, a country made up of tropical islands, has suffered cyclic dengue fever (DF) outbreaks in the past three decades. An outbreak of dengue-like illness (DLI) that occurred in April 2016 prompted this study, which aimed to determine the population’s immunity status and identify the arboviruses circulating in the country.

Vector Competence for DENV-2 Among Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) Populations in China. [PDF]
Aedes albopictus is a vector of over 20 arboviruses that has spread throughout the world, mainly in the second half of the twentieth century. Approximately 50–100 million people are infected with dengue virus (DENV) transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes each year, leading to heavy economic burdens for both governments and individuals, among countless other ...

A lethal DENV-2 wild-type mouse model for mutagenesis investigations. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Effective mouse models for testing antiviral medications should be both cost-effective and require minimal labor. Immunodeficient mouse models, such as AG129, are commonly used in dengue virus (DENV) research; however, their high import and maintenance costs make them relatively expensive. Moreover, the absence of IFN-γ signaling limits the

Infecting mosquitoes alters DENV-2 characteristics and enhances hemorrhage-induction potential in Stat1-/- mice. [PDF]
Dengue is one of the most prevalent arthropod-borne viral diseases in humans. There is still no effective vaccine or treatment to date. Previous studies showed that mosquito-derived factors present in saliva or salivary gland extract (SGE) contribute to the pathogenesis of dengue.

Role of c-ABL in DENV-2 Infection and Actin Remodeling in Vero Cells. [PDF]
Dengue is one the most significant mosquito-borne viral diseases globally, with its prevalence extending across tropical and subtropical regions, exerting a considerable financial strain on health systems. Despite decades of research leading to the development of a vaccine implemented in endemic countries, its usage remains restricted to a fraction of ...

Suppression of TGF-β/Smad2 signaling by GW788388 enhances DENV-2 clearance in macrophages. [PDF]
AbstractDengue fever, caused by the dengue virus (DENV‐1, −2, −3, and −4), affects millions of people in the tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Severe dengue is correlated with high viraemia and cytokine storm, such as high levels of transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β1) in the patient's serum.

Eugenol isolated from supercritical fluid extract of Ocimum sanctum: a potent inhibitor of DENV-2. [PDF]
AbstractDengue is one of the fairly prevalent viral infections at the world level transmitted through mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus). Due to various environmental factors, dengue cases surged rapidly at the global level in recent decades, with 193245 cases in 2021 and an increment of 110473 cases in 2022. There is no antidote available
