Immune gene expression analysis indicates the potential of a self-amplifying Covid-19 mRNA vaccine

npj Vaccines, 2022
Remarkable potency has been demonstrated for mRNA vaccines in reducing the global burden of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. An alternative form of the mRNA vaccine is the self-amplifying mRNA (sa-mRNA) vaccine, which encodes an alphavirus replicase that ...

High flavivirus structural plasticity demonstrated by a non-spherical morphological variant

Nature Communications, 2020
Dengue (DENV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses normally display as smooth spherical particles, while DENV can also become bumpy-surfaced, resulting in immune evasion. Here, Morrone et al. report DENV and ZIKV infectious club-shaped particles (clubSP) that display

Dengue virus activates cGAS through the release of mitochondrial DNA

Scientific Reports, 2017
Cyclic GMP-AMP synthetase (cGAS) is a DNA-specific cytosolic sensor, which detects and initiates host defense responses against microbial DNA. It is thus curious that a recent study identified cGAS as playing important roles in inhibiting positive-sense ...
