Comparative distribution of human and avian type sialic acid influenza receptors in the pig
BMC Veterinary Research, 2010 Background A major determinant of influenza infection is the presence of virus receptors on susceptible host cells to which the viral haemagglutinin is able to bind.

Tumour Virus Research, 2021 Herpesviruses are ubiquitous viruses, specifically the Epstein Barr virus (EBV). EBV and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establish their latency for a long period in B-cells and their reactivation instigates dreadful diseases from cancer ...

Receptors for Hepatitis C Virus
Journal of Virology, 2000 The nature of the receptors enabling hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry into cells has been the subject of debate. On one hand, ligand panning with recombinant HCV envelope protein has identified CD81, a member of the tetraspanin superfamily of proteins, as a direct ligand for the E2 glycoprotein (7) but fails to explain virus tropism.

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.

Measles Virus Receptor SLAM (CD150)
Virology, 2002 Measles virus (MV), a member of the Morbillivirus genus in the Paramyxoviridae family, is an enveloped virus with a nonsegmented negative-strand RNA genome and infects humans and nonhuman primates (Griffin, 2001). Despite the availability of vaccines, MV remains a major cause of childhood mortality, claiming roughly one million lives a year worldwide ...

A novel mechanism underlying the innate immune response induction upon viral-dependent replication of host cell mRNA: A mistake of +sRNA viruses' replicases [PDF]
, 2017 Viruses are lifeless particles designed for setting virus-host interactome assuring a new generation of virions for dissemination. This interactome generates a pressure on host organisms evolving mechanisms to neutralize viral infection, which places the

A20 (Tnfaip3) deficiency in myeloid cells protects against influenza A virus infection [PDF]
, 2012 The innate immune response provides the first line of defense against viruses and other pathogens by responding to specific microbial molecules. Influenza A virus (IAV) produces double-stranded RNA as an intermediate during the replication life cycle ...

High affinity allele for the gene of FCGR3A is risk factor for HIV infection and progression. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 We investigated the genetics of Fc receptors, which function as activating receptors on immune cells and help to control HIV through antibody-mediated cellular cytotoxicity.
