T Cell Responses Induced by Attenuated Flavivirus Vaccination Are Specific and Show Limited Cross-Reactivity with Other Flavivirus Species

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2020
The envelope (E) protein is the dominant target of neutralizing antibodies for dengue virus (DENV) and yellow fever virus (YFV). Accordingly, several DENV vaccine constructs use the E protein in a live attenuated vaccine format, utilizing a backbone ...

New Pyridobenothiazolone Derivatives Display Nanomolar Pan‐Serotype Anti‐Dengue Virus Activity

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
A ligand‐based strategy is employed, starting from hit compound 2, to develop the C‐2 modified pyridobenzothiazolone 19 as a pan‐serotype nanomolar DENV‐1‐4 inhibitor. Investigations of the mechanism reveal the peculiar ability to abolish the infectivity of virions in a second infection.

Protein Post‐Translational Modification‐Mediated Control of Type I Interferon Cascade Signaling

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type I interferons (IFN‐Is) constitute the primary defense mechanism against pathogenic infections in the human body. The antiviral signaling mediated by IFN‐I is integral to the host immune response. Nevertheless, an imbalance in IFN‐I function can perturb the organism’s homeostasis. Consequently, it is imperative for the body to meticulously

A CRISPR screen identifies IFI6 as an ER-resident interferon effector that blocks flavivirus replication

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2018
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an architecturally diverse organelle that serves as a membrane source for the replication of multiple viruses. Flaviviruses, including yellow fever virus, West Nile virus, dengue virus and Zika virus, induce unique ...

The Antiviral Activity of Polyphenols

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Polyphenols demonstrate remarkable antiviral properties by effectively disrupting multiple biochemical processes essential for viral replication. ABSTRACT Polyphenols are secondary metabolites produced by a large variety of plants. These compounds that comprise the class of phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, coumarins, flavonoids, and tannins have a ...

High‐throughput microfluidic real‐time PCR as a promising tool in disease ecology

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This work highlights the diversity of disease ecology questions Htrt PCR could contribute to addressing in a given host–pathogen ecosystem. This tool could be used to answer a broad set of basic and applied questions in animal ecology, notably by providing a way to address issues involving communities of hosts and communities of pathogens.
