A tortoise-infecting picornavirus expands the host range of the family Picornaviridae [PDF]
While picornaviruses can cause diseases in many mammals, little is known of their host range for replication in non-mammalian vertebrates. Here, a picornavirus in liver and kidney tissues from diseased Sulawesi tortoises (Indotestudo forsteni) was genetically characterized.

A comparative analysis of parechovirus protein structures with other picornaviruses
Parechoviruses belong to the genus Parechovirus within the family Picornaviridae and are non-enveloped icosahedral viruses with a single-stranded RNA genome. Parechoviruses include human and animal pathogens classified into six species. Those that infect

Lung Microbiome Diversity, Infection Dynamics, and Microbe-Mediated Cross-Protection. [PDF]
The protective role of the lung microbiome in maintaining respiratory health by promoting immune homeostasis, pathogen exclusion, and barrier integrity. Diverse microbial communities regulate immune maturation, enhance epithelial defenses, and contribute to antiviral responses, collectively preventing pathogen colonization and sustaining a balanced ...

Extracellular Vesicles Released by Picornavirus-Infected Cells Modify Antiviral Immune Cell Responses. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Naked viruses of the family Picornaviridae commonly spread via lysis of infected cells. Recent studies indicate that, prior to cell lysis, naked viruses are packaged and released inside extracellular vesicles (EVs). This has been considered a pro‐viral mechanism because EV membranes protect enclosed virions from neutralizing antibodies.

Surgical Strikes on Host Defenses: Role of the Viral Protease Activity in Innate Immune Antagonism
As a frontline defense mechanism against viral infections, the innate immune system is the primary target of viral antagonism. A number of virulence factors encoded by viruses play roles in circumventing host defenses and augmenting viral replication ...
