Culex flavivirus infection in a Culex pipiens mosquito colony and its effects on vector competence for Rift Valley fever phlebovirus

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Rift Valley fever is a mosquito-borne zoonotic disease that affects domestic ruminants and humans. Culex flavivirus is an insect-specific flavivirus that naturally exists in field mosquito populations. The influence of Culex flavivirus on Rift

Infection order outweighs the role of CD4+ T cells in tertiary flavivirus exposure

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: The link between CD4+ T and B cells during immune responses to DENV and ZIKV and their roles in cross-protection during heterologous infection is an active area of research.

The structure of an infectious immature flavivirus redefines viral architecture and maturation

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
The structure of an infectious immature flavivirus redefines viral architecture and maturation. Flaviviruses are the cause of severe human diseases transmitted by mosquitoes and ticks.

Zika virus: New clinical syndromes and its emergence in the western hemisphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Zika virus (ZIKV) had remained a relatively obscure flavivirus until a recent series of outbreaks accompanied by unexpectedly severe clinical complications brought this virus into the spotlight as causing an infection of global public health concern.

30 years of fatal dengue cases in Brazil: a review

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2019
Background Over the last 30 years, extensive dengue epidemics have occurred in Brazil, characterized by emergences and re-emergences of different serotypes, a change in the epidemiological profile and an increase in the number of severe and fatal cases ...

Tick-Borne Viruses in Finland: Public Health Risks, Interventions and Research Insights. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
ABSTRACT Ticks are obligate haematophagous arthropods that serve as vectors for diverse pathogens, including viruses, bacteria and protozoa. In Finland, the two primary tick species, Ixodes ricinus (castor bean tick) and Ixodes persulcatus (taiga tick), have been identified in the transmission of tick‐borne viruses (TBV), notably tick‐borne ...

The dual regulation of apoptosis by Flavivirus [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death, which maintains cellular homeostasis by eliminating pathogen-infected cells. It contains three signaling pathways: death receptor pathway, mitochondria-mediated pathway and endoplasmic reticulum pathway. Its importance in host defenses is highlighted by the observation that many viruses evade, hinder or ...

TRIMming Flavivirus Infection [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2011
Tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins are novel players in antiviral innate immunity. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe,Taylor et al. (2011) discover the mechanism of action of TRIM79α and show that this interferon-induced protein restricts tick-borne flaviviruses by targeting the viral polymerase for degradation.

A targeted approach with nanopore sequencing for the universal detection and identification of flaviviruses

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Nucleic acid test (NAT), most typically quantitative PCR, is one of the standard methods for species specific flavivirus diagnosis. Semi-comprehensive NATs such as pan-flavivirus PCR which covers genus Flavivirus are also available; however, further ...
