Specificity switching in virus–receptor complexes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2009
Several structures of complexes between viral attachment proteins and their cellular receptors have been determined recently, enhancing our understanding of the molecular recognition processes that guide formation of virus-receptor complexes. Moreover, these structures also highlight strategies by which highly similar viral proteins within a single ...

Replication of avian, human and swine influenza viruses in porcine respiratory explants and association with sialic acid distribution

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2010
Background Throughout the history of human influenza pandemics, pigs have been considered the most likely "mixing vessel" for reassortment between human and avian influenza viruses (AIVs).

Antiviral treatment alters the frequency of activating and inhibitory receptor-expressing natural killer cells in chronic Hepatitis B virus infected patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Natural killer (NK) cells play a critical role in innate antiviral immunity, but little is known about the impact of antiviral therapy on the frequency of NK cell subsets.

Avian recombinant virus H5N1 influenza (A/Vietnam/1203/04) and its escape-mutant m13(13) induce early signaling reactions of the immunity in human lymphocytes

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2016
The innate immune receptors TLR4, TLR7, TLR8, and RIG1 recognized the structures of the influenza viruses in human lymphocytes and were activated by the recombinant avian influenza virus A/Vietnam/1203/04 and its escape-mutant m13(13) during early period

Acute BVDV infection inhibits expression of interferon-stimulated genes during pregnancy recognition in bovine endometrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) can evade host detection by downregulation of interferon signaling pathways. Infection of cows with noncytopathic (ncp) BVDV can cause early embryonic mortality. Upregulation of type I interferon stimulated genes (ISGs)

Cellular Receptors Involved in KSHV Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The process of Kaposi’s Sarcoma Herpes Virus’ (KSHV) entry into target cells is complex and engages several viral glycoproteins which bind to a large range of host cell surface molecules. Receptors for KSHV include heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs),

Mapping of the Epstein-Barr virus and C3dg binding sites to a common domain on complement receptor type 2. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Complement receptor type 2 (CR2;CD21), a member of the superfamily of proteins containing short consensus repeats (SCRs), is the B cell receptor for both the gp350/220 envelope protein of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and for the C3dg protein of complement ...

Circumventing antivector immunity: potential use of nonhuman adenoviral vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Adenoviruses are efficient gene delivery vectors based on their ability to transduce a wide variety of cell types and drive high-level transient transgene expression. While there have been advances in modifying human adenoviral (HAdV) vectors to increase

Virus-Receptor Interactions and Virus Neutralization: Insights for Oncolytic Virus Development.

open access: yesOncolytic virotherapy, 2020
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are replication competent agents that selectively target cancer cells. After penetrating the tumor cell, viruses replicate and eventually trigger cell lysis, releasing the new viral progeny, which at their turn will attack and kill neighbouring cells. The ability of OVs to self-amplify within the tumor while sparing normal cells

Flavivirus Entry Receptors: An Update

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Flaviviruses enter host cells by endocytosis initiated when the virus particles interact with cell surface receptors. The current model suggests that flaviviruses use at least two different sets of molecules for infectious entry: attachment factors that ...
