Astrocytes in Flavivirus Infections [PDF]
Virus infections of the central nervous system (CNS) can manifest in various forms of inflammation, including that of the brain (encephalitis) and spinal cord (myelitis), all of which may have long-lasting deleterious consequences. Although the knowledge

A glance at subgenomic flavivirus RNAs and microRNAs in flavivirus infections [PDF]
The family Flaviviridae comprises a wide variety of viruses that are distributed worldwide, some of which are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. There are neither vaccines nor antivirals for most flavivirus infections, reinforcing the

Cellular Targets for the Treatment of Flavivirus Infections [PDF]
Classical antiviral therapy targets viral functions, mostly viral enzymes or receptors. Successful examples include precursor herpesvirus drugs, antiretroviral drugs that target reverse transcriptase and protease, influenza virus directed compounds as ...

The Role of NS1 Protein in the Diagnosis of Flavivirus Infections [PDF]
Nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) is a glycoprotein among the flavivirus genus. It is found in both membrane-associated and soluble secreted forms, has an essential role in viral replication, and modulates the host immune response.

Antibody Responses to Zika Virus Infections in Environments of Flavivirus Endemicity
Zika virus (ZIKV) infections occur in areas where dengue virus (DENV), West Nile virus (WNV), yellow fever virus (YFV), and other viruses of the genus Flavivirus cocirculate. The envelope (E) proteins of these closely related flaviviruses induce specific

Neuroinvasive flavivirus infections [PDF]
SUMMARYFlaviviruses, including Dengue, West Nile, Japanese encephalitis, and Tick‐borne encephalitis virus, are major emerging human pathogens, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Many clinically important flaviviruses elicit CNS diseases in infected hosts, including traditional “hemorrhagic” viruses, such as Dengue. This review focuses on the

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms Underlying Neurologic Manifestations of Mosquito-Borne Flavivirus Infections [PDF]
Flaviviruses are a family of enveloped viruses with a positive-sense RNA genome, transmitted by arthropod vectors. These viruses are known for their broad cellular tropism leading to infection of multiple body systems, which can include the central ...

Flavivirus: From Structure to Therapeutics Development
Flaviviruses are still a hidden threat to global human safety, as we are reminded by recent reports of dengue virus infections in Singapore and African-lineage-like Zika virus infections in Brazil.
