Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.An evolutionary molecular dynamics platform is used to design P1.6, a membrane‐active peptide that senses lipid packing defects in viral envelopes. P1.6 adopts a stabilized α‐helical structure upon membrane contact, disrupts virus‐like liposomes, and damages HIV‐1 particles.

Methods for Lipid Droplet Biophysical Characterization in Flaviviridae Infections
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Lipid droplets (LDs) are intracellular organelles for neutral lipid storage, originated from the endoplasmic reticulum. They play an essential role in lipid metabolism and cellular homeostasis.

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Background Zika virus (ZIKV) is a flavivirus that has gained global attention due to its association with congenital microcephaly and neuroinflammatory responses. Markers of endothelial activation and purinergic signaling have been identified in the context of ZIKV neuropathogenesis, although the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Ethological risk factors of West nile infection of wild birds in Senegal [PDF]
, 2007 Serological studies performed in 2003, as well as viral isolations demonstrated that West Nile fever (WNF) was endemic in Senegal (West Africa). Large populations of potentially infected birds fly each year from West Africa to Europe.
