Design principles and applications of synthetic self‐replicating RNAs

open access: yesWIREs RNA, Volume 14, Issue 6, November/December 2023., 2023
Self‐replicating RNAs (srRNAs) replicate enzymatically in the cytosol. Depending on their bespoke gene cargo, srRNAs can be transformed into powerful tools for various applications. Abstract With the advent of ever more sophisticated methods for the in vitro synthesis and the in vivo delivery of RNAs, synthetic mRNAs have gained substantial interest ...

Hepatic immunopathology during occult hepacivirus re-infection [PDF]

open access: greenVirology, 2017
Despite drug advances for Hepatitis C virus (HCV), re-infections remain prevalent in high-risk populations. Unfortunately, the role of preexisting viral immunity and how it modulates re-infection is unclear. GBV-B infection of common marmosets is a useful model to study tissue immune responses in hepacivirus infections, and in this study we re ...

The genetics of immune and infection phenotypes in wild mice, Mus musculus domesticus

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 15, Page 4242-4258, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Wild animals are under constant threat from a wide range of micro‐ and macroparasites in their environment. Animals make immune responses against parasites, and these are important in affecting the dynamics of parasite populations. Individual animals vary in their anti‐parasite immune responses.

Hepatitis C subtyping assay failure in UK patients born in sub‐Saharan Africa: Implications for global treatment and elimination

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Aims The newly developed direct‐acting antivirals have revolutionized the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV), with cure rates as high as 98% in some cohorts. Although genome sequencing has demonstrated that some subtypes of HCV naturally harbor drug resistance associated substitutions (RAS), these are often overlooked ...

Blocking Zika virus vertical transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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-

Animal models to study hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
With more than 71 million chronically infected people, the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major global health concern. Although new direct acting antivirals have significantly improved the rate of HCV cure, high therapy cost, potential emergence of drug ...

Further Evidence for in Utero Transmission of Equine Hepacivirus to Foals [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2019
(1) Background: Equine hepacivirus (EqHV), also referred to as non-primate hepacivirus (NPHV), infects horses—and dogs in some instances—and is closely related to hepatitis C virus (HCV) that has infected up to 3% of the world’s human population, causing an epidemic of liver cirrhosis and cancer.
