Defective HIV proviruses: possible involvement in the HIV infection pathogenesis

Вопросы вирусологии
This review article analyzes information obtained from a literature search on defective HIV genomes (HIV-1, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Lentivirus, Orthoretrovirinae, Retroviridae). It discusses the origins of defective HIV genomes, their potential for

Extension of the viral ecology in humans using viral profile hidden Markov models. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
When human samples are sequenced, many assembled contigs are "unknown", as conventional alignments find no similarity to known sequences. Hidden Markov models (HMM) exploit the positions of specific nucleotides in protein-encoding codons in various ...

Combinatorial Synthesis of Next Generation Water‐Soluble Quaternized N‐Halamine Oligomers with Long‐Lasting Antiviral Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 28, 7 April 2026.
A combinatorial library of dual‐functional antiviral oligomers incorporating N‐halamine and quaternary ammonium functionalities is developed for long‐lasting antiviral activity. The lead materials exhibit rapid and durable antiviral activity against SARS‐CoV‐2 variants and influenza H1N1, with 4 to 5 log reduction in viral copies at 5 mg mL−1 ...

Retroviral Infections Affect Survival and Clutch Size of Female Wild Turkeys

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We investigated the effects of two oncogenic retroviruses, lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) and reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV), on survival and reproduction of wild turkeys in Maine. REV infection reduced female annual survival by nearly half, while LPDV‐infected hens laid fewer eggs, though other reproductive metrics were unaffected.

Inhibition of cell proliferation by Tas of foamy viruses through cell cycle arrest or apoptosis underlines the different mechanisms of virus–host interactions

Virulence, 2022
Foamy viruses belong to the Spumaretrovirinae subfamily member of the Retroviridae family and produce nonpathogenic infection to hosts in the natural conditions.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Viral Pathogens and Pulmonary Fibrosis: EMT‐Driven Mechanisms and Insights From Traditional Chinese Medicine

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious progressive complication of the respiratory system, which is profoundly associated with persistent extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, fibrosis, and disrupted tissue regeneration. Emerging evidence shows that epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) acts as a key factor in the pathogenesis of ...

Genomic Sequencing and Analysis of New Variants of Enzootic Nasal Tumour Virus Type 2 Revealed Recombination Events between Different Sublineages

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
The strains from sublineages 1.5 and 1.2 may be promoting the emergence of new strains of ENTV‐2 in China. Recombination drives ENTV‐2's rapid evolution . ABSTRACT In recent years, multiple regions in China have experienced an increase in the occurrence of enzootic nasal tumour virus type 2 (ENTV‐2) infections. This research highlights the initial full
