Analysis of tick-borne encephalitis virus-induced host responses in human cells of neuronal origin and interferon-mediated protection [PDF]

, 2017
Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a member of the genus Flavivirus. It can cause serious infections in humans that may result in encephalitis/meningoencephalitis. Although several studies have described the involvement of specific genes in the host

Insights into the Dynamics and Binding Mechanisms of the Alkhumra Virus NS2B/NS3 Protease: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Advanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
The ΔRMSF$\Delta {\rm RMSF}$ analysis reveals significant flexibility differences between free NS3 and the NS2B/NS3 complex, with notable deviations in specific regions. Key residues driving NS2B binding are identified, and the protonation state of catalytic serine affects oxyanion hole formation.

Blocking Zika virus vertical transmission. [PDF]

, 2018
The outbreak of the Zika virus (ZIKV) has been associated with increased incidence of congenital malformations. Although recent efforts have focused on vaccine development, treatments for infected individuals are needed urgently. Sofosbuvir (SOF), an FDA-

Detection of Zika and dengue viruses in wild-caught mosquitoes collected during field surveillance in an environmental protection area in São Paulo, Brazil.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Species of the genus Flavivirus are widespread in Brazil and are a major public health concern. The country's largest city, São Paulo, is in a highly urbanized area with a few forest fragments which are commonly used for recreation.

Dengue Seasonality and Non-Monotonic Response to Moisture: A Model-Data Analysis of Sri Lanka Incidence from 2011 to 2016 [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Dengue fever impacts populations across the tropics. Dengue is caused by a mosquito transmitted flavivirus and its burden is projected to increase under future climate and development scenarios. The transmission process of dengue virus is strongly moderated by hydro-climatic conditions that impact the vector's life cycle and behavior.

m6A‐mRNA Reader YTHDF2 Identified as a Potential Risk Gene in Autism With Disproportionate Megalencephaly

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among autistic individuals, a subphenotype of disproportionate megalencephaly (ASD‐DM) seen at three years of age is associated with co‐occurring intellectual disability and poorer prognoses later in life. However, many of the genes contributing to ASD‐DM have yet to be delineated. In this study, we identified additional ASD‐DM candidate genes

New pyridobenothiazolone derivatives display nanomolar pan‐serotype anti‐DENV activity

ChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
Dengue virus (DENV) serotypes 1–4 are mosquito‐borne flaviviruses that are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Although two vaccines have been approved, their unbalanced efficacy across serotypes poses potential risks for specific populations.
