Development and Structural Analysis of Antibody Therapeutics for Filoviruses
The filoviruses, including ebolaviruses and marburgviruses, are among the world’s deadliest pathogens. As the only surface-exposed protein on mature virions, their glycoprotein GP is the focus of current therapeutic monoclonal antibody discovery efforts.

In dieser Studie wurden durch Elektrospinning photoaktive Membranen aus hydrophobem PCL und hydrophilem PAN hergestellt, in die entweder ein hydrophober oder hydrophiler Photosensibilisator eingebettet wurde. Mit Hilfe der Fluoreszenzlebensdauer‐Mikroskopie konnten photoangeregte „aktive Zentren“ innerhalb der Membranen identifiziert werden und damit ...

Structural Basis for Differential Neutralization of Ebolaviruses
There are five antigenically distinct ebolaviruses that cause hemorrhagic fever in humans or non-human primates (Ebola virus, Sudan virus, Reston virus, Taï Forest virus, and Bundibugyo virus).

Taï Forest Virus Does Not Cause Lethal Disease in Ferrets
Filoviruses are zoonotic, negative-sense RNA viruses, most of which are capable of causing severe disease in humans and nonhuman primates, often with high case fatality rates.

Regioselective Deacetylation in Nucleosides and Derivatives
Selective deprotection of the acetyl group(s) in acetylated nucleosides demonstrates practical significance in synthetic processes. It simplifies the preparation of partially or differentially substituted nucleoside intermediates. In this mini‐review, we summarized and evaluated recent approaches for regioselective deacetylation in acetylated ...

Testing New Hypotheses Regarding Ebolavirus Reservoirs
Despite a relatively long search for the origin of ebolaviruses, their reservoirs remain elusive. Researchers might have to consider testing alternative hypotheses about how these viruses persist and emerge to advance ebolavirus research.

Ebola Virus Localization in the Macaque Reproductive Tract during Acute Ebola Virus Disease. [PDF]
Sexual transmission of Ebola virus (EBOV) has been demonstrated more than a year after recovery from the acute phase of Ebola virus disease (EVD). The mechanisms underlying EBOV persistence and sexual transmission are not currently understood.

Advancing the field of viroporins—Structure, function and pharmacology: IUPHAR Review 39
Viroporins possess important potential as antiviral targets due to their critical roles during virus life cycles, spanning from virus entry to egress. Although the antiviral amantadine targets the M2 viroporin of influenza A virus, successful progression of other viroporin inhibitors into clinical use remains challenging.

Predictive and comparative analysis of Ebolavirus proteins [PDF]
Ebolavirus is the pathogen for Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever (EHF). This disease exhibits a high fatality rate and has recently reached a historically epidemic proportion in West Africa. Out of the 5 known Ebolavirus species, only Reston ebolavirus has lost human pathogenicity, while retaining the ability to cause EHF in long-tailed macaque.

Potent neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against Ebola virus isolated from vaccinated donors
Ebola virus (EBOV) can cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans, and no approved treatment is currently available. Although several antibodies have achieved good protection in animal models, the potential emerging isolates of ebolavirus and the unknown ...
