Cell Surface Vimentin Is an Attachment Factor That Facilitates Equine Arteritis Virus Infection In Vitro [PDF]
Our laboratory identified the susceptible allelic variant of equine CXCL16 protein (EqCXCL16S) as an entry receptor for equine arteritis virus (EAV). However, EAV has a broad host cell tropism and infects cells that lack EqCXCL16S.

Volatile Organic Compounds Induced upon Viral Infection in Cell Culture: Uniform Background Study with Use of Viruses from Different Families [PDF]
This study investigates the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in RK-13 cells infected with three equine viruses representing different families: equine arteritis virus (EAV) (Arteriviridae), equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) (Herpesviridae), and

Role of Unfolded Protein Response in the Apoptosis Induced by Alphaarterivirus: IRE1α as an Essential Pathway for In Vitro Replication [PDF]
The perturbation of ER homeostasis by viral infection gives rise to the unfolded protein response (UPR), characterized by the activation of three signaling pathways.

Imaging flow cytometry reveals the mechanism of equine arteritis virus entry and internalization [PDF]
The process of viral entry into host cells is crucial for the establishment of infection and the determination of viral pathogenicity. A comprehensive understanding of entry pathways is fundamental for the development of novel therapeutic strategies ...

Computational modelling of the equine arteritis virus GP5/M Dimer: Implications for immune evasion and virulence. [PDF]
Equine arteritis virus (EAV) is a positive-stranded RNA virus of the Arteriviridae family. Its GP5/M dimer, the principal component of the viral envelope, mediates virus budding and serves as a key target for neutralizing antibodies. Using AlphaFold3, we

CD81 is a receptor for equine arteritis virus (family: Arteriviridae) [PDF]
Arteriviruses are a family of single-stranded, positive-sense RNA (+ssRNA) viruses that infect diverse animal hosts. Many arteriviruses are macrophage-tropic, consistent with their utilization of the macrophage-specific molecule CD163 as a receptor ...

Serosurveillance of infectious agents in equines of the Central Valley of Costa Rica [PDF]
Blood samples from 181 equines from the Central Valley of Costa Rica were collected in the year 2012 to determine the presence of antibodies against selected infectious agents in horses and to determine the risk factors associated with these agents.

TRIM29 inhibits PRRSV replication by targeting nsp11 for degradation [PDF]
Ubiquitination plays critical roles in viral infections. This study demonstrates that porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) endoribonuclease nsp11 undergoes K48-linked polyubiquitination specifically at the conserved catalytic ...
