Fine Structure Analysis of Pichinde Virus Nucleocapsids
The structure and organization of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex of an arenavirus, Pichinde virus, was investigated. The basic configuration of the RNP was found to be a linear array of globular subunits or nucleosomes, 4 to 5 nm in diameter, that represent individual molecules of the major N polypeptide.

Arenavirus budding resulting from viral-protein-associated cell membrane curvature [PDF]
Viral replication occurs within cells, with release (and onward infection) primarily achieved through two alternative mechanisms: lysis, in which virions emerge as the infected cell dies and bursts open; or budding, in which virions emerge gradually from

Inhibition of Pichinde Virus Replication by Actinomycin D
The yields of Pichinde virus, a member of the arenavirus group, were markedly inhibited when infected BHK 21 cells were incubated in the presence of 0.4 to 4 mug/ml of actinomycin D. Maximal inhibition was observed when actinomycin D was added after the adsorption of virus to cultures; however, addition of drug as late as 12 h after infection reduced ...

Ebola virus is responsible for causing severe hemorrhagic fevers, with case fatality rates of up to 90%. Currently, no antiviral or vaccine is licensed against Ebola virus. A phosphatidylserine‐targeting antibody (PGN401, bavituximab) has previously been shown to have broad‐spectrum antiviral activity.

Isolation of Ribosome-like Structures from Pichinde Virus
Three classes of mamalian ribosome-like structures were found to be associated with purified Pichinde virus preparations. These structures, possessing sedimentation coefficients of 80S, 60S and 40S, were sensitive to EDTA dissociation and possessed a buoyant density in caesium chloride of 1-61 g/ml, a value analogous to that displayed by BHK21 cell ...

Animal Models for the Study of Rodent‐Borne Hemorrhagic Fever Viruses: Arenaviruses and Hantaviruses
Human pathogenic hantaviruses and arenaviruses are maintained in nature by persistent infection of rodent carrier populations. Several members of these virus groups can cause significant disease in humans that is generically termed viral hemorrhagic fever (HF) and is characterized as a febrile illness with an increased propensity to cause acute ...

The Regulatory Role of Activating Transcription Factor 2 in Inflammation
Activating transcription factor 2 (ATF2) is a member of the leucine zipper family of DNA‐binding proteins and is widely distributed in tissues including the liver, lung, spleen, and kidney. Like c‐Jun and c‐Fos, ATF2 responds to stress‐related stimuli and may thereby influence cell proliferation, inflammation, apoptosis, oncogenesis, neurological ...
