Virucidal efficacy of a portable pulsed UV light device: experimental study at Chubu and Tohoku Universities

open access: yesAll Life
Background: In emergency medical settings, healthcare professionals are frequently exposed to unknown viruses and bacteria. To reduce environmental contamination, portable pulsed ultraviolet (UV) light disinfection devices are increasingly used. However,

Viral Infections among Hospitalised Children during the COVID-19 Outbreak in a Tertiary Hospital in Turkey: Relationship with Non-pharmaceutical Interventions

open access: yesNigerian Postgraduate Medical Journal
Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, before vaccines were available, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) such as masks and hand hygiene were crucial in controlling SARS-CoV-2 transmission. However, various respiratory viruses continued to infect

Cell-cell fusion induced by reovirus FAST proteins enhances replication and pathogenicity of non-enveloped dsRNA viruses.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
Fusogenic reoviruses encode fusion-associated small transmembrane (FAST) protein, which induces cell-cell fusion. FAST protein is the only known fusogenic protein in non-enveloped viruses, and its role in virus replication is not yet known.

A nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccine prevents enterovirus A71 infection in mouse model

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionHuman Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) is the primary pathogen responsible for severe hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Vaccination plays a crucial role in controlling its spread. Although inactivated vaccines have been approved, there is growing

AMPK Activation Downregulates TXNIP, Rab5, and Rab7 Within Minutes, Thereby Inhibiting the Endocytosis-Mediated Entry of Human Pathogenic Viruses

open access: yesCells
Cellular metabolism must adapt rapidly to environmental alterations and adjust nutrient uptake. Low glucose availability activates the AMP-dependent kinase (AMPK) pathway.

Exploiting the kinesin-1 molecular motor to generate a virus membrane penetration site

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
How non-enveloped viruses cross host membranes is incompletely understood. Here, Ravindranet al. show that polyomavirus SV40 recruits kinesin-1 to construct a penetration site on the ER membrane.
