TAM Receptors Are Not Required for Zika Virus Infection in Mice

Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Tyro3, Axl, and Mertk (TAM) receptors are candidate entry receptors for infection with the Zika virus (ZIKV), an emerging flavivirus of global public health concern.

Respiratory virus infection up-regulates TRPV1, TRPA1 and ASICS3 receptors on airway cells.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Receptors implicated in cough hypersensitivity are transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), transient receptor potential cation channel, Subfamily A, Member 1 (TRPA1) and acid sensing ion channel receptor 3 (ASIC3).

Distribution patterns of influenza virus receptors and viral attachment patterns in the respiratory and intestinal tracts of seven avian species

Veterinary Research, 2012
This study assessed the presence of sialic acid α-2,3 and α-2,6 linked glycan receptors in seven avian species. The respiratory and intestinal tracts of the chicken, common quail, red-legged partridge, turkey, golden pheasant, ostrich, and mallard were ...

IFN-λ prevents influenza virus spread from the upper airways to the lungs and limits virus transmission

eLife, 2018
Host factors restricting the transmission of respiratory viruses are poorly characterized. We analyzed the contribution of type I and type III interferon (IFN) using a mouse model in which the virus is selectively administered to the upper airways ...

EVIHVR: A platform for analysis of expression, variation and identification of human virus receptors

Infectious Medicine, 2022
Motivation: Virus receptors are presented on the cell surfaces of a host and are key for viral infection of host cells. However, no unified resource for the study of viral receptors is currently available.

Sialic Acid Receptors: The Key to Solving the Enigma of Zoonotic Virus Spillover

Viruses, 2021
Emerging viral diseases are a major threat to global health, and nearly two-thirds of emerging human infectious diseases are zoonotic. Most of the human epidemics and pandemics were caused by the spillover of viruses from wild mammals.

Interactions between the rabies virus and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors: A potential role in rabies virus induced behavior modifications

Heliyon, 2022
Rabies causes approximately 60,000 casualties annually and has a case fatality rate approaching 100% once clinical signs occur. The glycoprotein on the surface of the virion is important for the host immune response and facilitates interaction of the ...
