Dolphin Morbillivirus Associated with a Mass Stranding of Sperm Whales, Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In September 2014, 7 sperm whales stranded along the Adriatic Italian coastlines. Postmortem investigations on 3 dead females dead and in 1 fetus harbored by the largest one revealed molecular and immunoistochemical evidences of dolphin morbillivirus ...

Respiratory Syncytial Virus Under the Lens of Structure: From Prefusion Stabilization to Next‐Generation Immunotherapies

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This illustration integrates key concepts covered in the review, including high‐risk populations, viral structure, host entry factors, the replication cycle, and licensed antibody‐based prevention strategies. ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a negative‐sense RNA virus belonging to the genus Orthopneumovirus within the family Pneumoviridae.

Highly specific monoclonal antibodies and epitope identification against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein for antigen detection tests

open access: yesCell Reports Medicine, 2021
Summary: The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a major global public health concern. Although rapid point-of-care testing for detecting viral antigen is important for management of the outbreak, the current antigen tests are less ...

Colonic Barrier Dysfunction and Inflammation Induced by Nano‐/Micro‐Plastics Fibers in Mice via the FAK/NF‐κB/iNOS and TLR4/NF‐κB/iNOS Pathways

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As emerging environmental contaminants, nano‐ and micro‐plastics (NMPs) have drawn increasing research attention due to potential hazards to organisms. Particle shape is a key factor influencing the toxic effects of NMPs, and NMPs of different shapes cause varying degrees of tissue damage. We investigated the specific mechanisms of polystyrene

Antiviral and antioxidant activity of a hydroalcoholic extract from Humulus lupulus L. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A hydroalcoholic extract from female inflorescences of Humulus lupulus L. (HOP extract) was evaluated for its anti-influenza activity. The ability of the extract to interfere with different phases of viral replication was assessed, as well as its effect ...

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies

Genome encapsidation by orthobunyavirus nucleoproteins [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013
All negative-sense, single-stranded RNA (−ssRNA) viruses encode a nucleoprotein (NP), the major function of which is to bind viral RNAs and encapsidate them as ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) (1, 2). Consequently, the genomes of −ssRNA viruses do not exist as naked RNA but rather as protein–RNA complexes with high-order structures. In PNAS, Li et al.

Context-Dependent Remodeling of Rad51–DNA Complexes by Srs2 Is Mediated by a Specific Protein–Protein Interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The yeast Srs2 helicase removes Rad51 nucleoprotein filaments from single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), preventing DNA strand invasion and exchange by homologous recombination.
