The poxvirus F17 protein counteracts mitochondrially orchestrated antiviral responses

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Poxviruses are unusual DNA viruses that replicate in the cytoplasm. To do so, they encode approximately 100 immunomodulatory proteins that counteract cytosolic nucleic acid sensors such as cGAMP synthase (cGAS) along with several other antiviral response

Myxoma virus lacking the host range determinant M062 stimulates cGAS-dependent type 1 interferon response and unique transcriptomic changes in human monocytes/macrophages.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2022
The evolutionarily successful poxviruses possess effective and diverse strategies to circumvent or overcome host defense mechanisms. Poxviruses encode many immunoregulatory proteins to evade host immunity to establish a productive infection and have ...

Identification of Vaccinia Virus Inhibitors and Cellular Functions Necessary for Efficient Viral Replication by Screening Bioactives and FDA-Approved Drugs

open access: yesVaccines, 2020
Four decades after the eradication of smallpox, poxviruses continue to threaten the health of humans and other animals. Vaccinia virus (VACV) was used as the vaccine that successfully eradicated smallpox and is a prototypic member of the poxvirus family.

Status and future of recombinant adeno‐associated virus vector manufacturing

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Sixty years of adeno‐associated virus (AAV) research illustrates a trajectory marked by basic science exploration, iterative innovation, persistent challenges, a number of clinical setbacks, as well as commercial therapeutic triumphs. This continual evolution has led to recombinant AAV (rAAV) becoming a cornerstone of modern gene therapy ...

Viral skin diseases in odontocete cetaceans: gross, histopathological, and molecular characterization of selected pathogens

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Fifty-five skin lesions from 31 stranded cetaceans along the Canary coasts (2011–2021) were submitted to macroscopic, histological, and molecular analyses to confirm infection by cetacean poxvirus, herpesvirus and cetacean morbillivirus.

Targeting the NR3C1‐ACSL4 Axis Triggers Ferroptosis to Overcome Radioresistance in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
The glucocorticoid receptor NR3C1 drives prostate cancer radioresistance by upregulating ACSL4. High ACSL4 levels create a lipid metabolic vulnerability. The clinical agent DHA synergizes with ACSL4 to induce lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, effectively overcoming radioresistance.

What is rural? Examining the relationship between human populations and their inter-connectedness in the context of communicable disease transmission

open access: yesInternational Journal of Health Geographics
Background Rurality and urbanicity are recognized determinants of public health outcomes that influence policy and resource allocation. However, many commonly used methods to classify the rural-urban continuum, such as the Rural-Urban Commuting Area ...

Cowpox virus: What’s in a Name?

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Traditionally, virus taxonomy relied on phenotypic properties; however, a sequence-based virus taxonomy has become essential since the recent requirement of a species to exhibit monophyly.
