Repurposed Medicines for Viruses With Epidemic or Pandemic Potential: A Horizon Scan
ABSTRACT Viruses such as Ebola, Marburg, influenza, mpox, MERS‐CoV, SARS‐CoV, and SARS‐CoV‐2 may be considered pathogens of epidemic or pandemic concern. Developing novel antiviral medicines can be time‐consuming and resource intensive. Repurposing existing medicines with known or potential antiviral activity offers a faster, cost‐effective strategy to

Investigation of Ebolavirus exposure in pigs presented for slaughter in Uganda [PDF]
In 2008, an outbreak ofReston ebolavirus(RESTV) in pigs in the Philippines expanded our understanding of the host range of ebolaviruses. Subsequent experimental infections with the human-pathogenic speciesZaire ebolavirus(EBOV) confirmed that pigs are ...

Virological diagnosis of Ebolavirus infection
Ebolaviruses, and the other viral causes of haemorrhagic fevers (VHF) have always posed special problems for diagnostic laboratories. These arise from the rarity of human infections, minimal documented experience with test delivery and interpretation, the paucity of established commercial or in-house assays, the lack of clinical material for test ...

Repurpose an FDA‐Approved Antibody Using DARPin‐Scaffolded Bridge Protein
The cell line and scalable upstream/downstream process development needed for every new monoclonal antibody are both highly expensive and time‐consuming, significantly increasing the cost of new antibody therapeutics. By contrast, the production of many synthetic binders can be accomplished rapidly and with lower production costs.

Ebolavirus Evolution: Past and Present
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The past year has marked the most devastating Ebola outbreak the world has ever witnessed, with over 28,000 cases and over 11,000 deaths. Ebola virus (EBOV) has now been around for almost 50 years. In this review, we discuss past and present outbreaks of EBOV and how those variants evolved over time ...

Carbohydrate‐Based Drug Discovery: Synthetic Strategies and Clinical Applications
The picture depicts the molecules discussed in the review. On the left side, the general scaffold of sugars is shown. Next to it are four carbohydrate‐based molecules, including remdesivir, islatravir, empagliflozin, and Globo‐H. Remdesivir and islatravir contain a substituted ribose ring attached to a modified nucleobase.

Ebolavirus Classification Based on Natural Vectors [PDF]
According to the WHO, ebolaviruses have resulted in 8818 human deaths in West Africa as of January 2015. To better understand the evolutionary relationship of the ebolaviruses and infer virulence from the relationship, we applied the alignment-free natural vector method to classify the newest ebolaviruses.

Comparative Analysis of the Sequenced Zaire ebolavirus Samples from the Republic of Guinea
An unprecedented on its scale Ebola fever epidemic, caused by Zaire ebolavirus, has been registered in the territory of West Africa in 2014-2015. The virus quickly spread from the Republic of Guinea into the neighboring countries.
