Correspondence of Neutralizing Humoral Immunity and CD4 T Cell Responses in Long Recovered Sudan Virus Survivors. [PDF]
Robust humoral and cellular immunity are critical for survival in humans during an ebolavirus infection. However, the interplay between these two arms of immunity is poorly understood.

The ebolavirus VP24 interferon antagonist [PDF]
Suppression during the early phases of the immune system often correlates directly with a fatal outcome for the host. The ebolaviruses, some of the most lethal viruses known, appear to cripple initial stages of the host defense network via multiple distinct paths. Two of the eight viral proteins are critical for immunosuppression. One of these proteins

Abstract Background and Objectives The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic necessitated various therapeutic approaches, including convalescent plasma (CP) administration. The administration timing of COVID‐19 CP (CCP), antibody specificity and quantity were identified as crucial factors for therapeutic success.

Summary: The Ebola virus matrix protein VP40 forms distinct structures linked to distinct functions in the virus life cycle. Dimeric VP40 is a structural protein associated with virus assembly, while octameric, ring-shaped VP40 is associated with ...

RIG-I activation inhibits ebolavirus replication
Hemorrhagic fever viruses are associated with rapidly progressing severe disease with high case fatality, making them of public health and biothreat importance. Effective antivirals are not available for most of the members of this diverse group of viruses. A broad spectrum strategy for antiviral development would be very advantageous. Perhaps the most

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Potential Vaccines and Post-Exposure Treatments for Filovirus Infections
Viruses of the family Filoviridae represent significant health risks as emerging infectious diseases as well as potentially engineered biothreats. While many research efforts have been published offering possibilities toward the mitigation of filoviral ...

ABSTRACT Marburg marburgvirus (MARV) is a highly virulent human pathogen with limited therapeutic options. Recombinant MARV glycoprotein (GP) produced in Drosophila Schneider 2 (S2) cells has been extensively investigated as potential vaccine antigen with promising efficacy demonstrated in nonhuman primate models.
