Sindbis Virus Vaccine Platform: A Promising Oncolytic Virus-Mediated Approach for Ovarian Cancer Treatment [PDF]
This review article provides a comprehensive overview of a novel Sindbis virus vaccine platform as potential immunotherapy for ovarian cancer patients. Ovarian cancer is the most lethal of all gynecological malignancies. The majority of high-grade serous

Agglutination of Sindbis Virus and of Cells Infected with Sindbis Virus by Plant Lectins [PDF]
We have examined the agglutination of Sindbis virus and of chick and hamster cells infected with Sindbis virus by two of the plant lectins, concanavalin A and Ricinus communis agglutinin. Both lectins agglutinate the virus by binding to the polysaccharide chains of the envelope glycoproteins.

Antiviral activity of glycopeptide antibiotics derivates against Sindbis virus
Introduction: Thousands of human infective viruses spread worldwide, yet protective measures exist for only a fraction, with internationally accepted vaccines available for an even smaller subset.

Spread of the Sindbis Virus in Fennoscandia
In the second half of the last century, a persistent focus of the disease caused by Sindbis virus was formed on the territory of Fennoscandia. In different countries, the disease is called Pogosta disease, Ockelbo disease and Karelian fever.

32 P-labeled ribonucleic acid (RNA) from purified Sindbis virus was examined for the presence of hidden breaks. Viral RNA was treated with acid at p H 2.9 or with formaldehyde and was analyzed on sucrose gradients or by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Subgenomic reporter RNA system for detection of alphavirus infection in mosquitoes. [PDF]
Current methods for detecting real-time alphavirus (Family Togaviridae) infection in mosquitoes require the use of recombinant viruses engineered to express a visibly detectable reporter protein.

Sindbis virus replicons and Sindbis virus: assembly of chimeras and of particles deficient in virus RNA [PDF]
Alphaviruses are a well-characterized group of positive-strand RNA viruses. The identification of cis-acting elements in their genomes and their replication strategy have made them useful as vectors for the expression of heterologous genes. In infected cells, the nonstructural proteins, required for replication and transcription of the viral genes, are

Wolbachia elevates host methyltransferase expression to block an RNA virus early during infection. [PDF]
Wolbachia pipientis is an intracellular endosymbiont known to confer host resistance against RNA viruses in insects. However, the causal mechanism underlying this antiviral defense remains poorly understood.

Biosynthesis of the Sindbis Virus Carbohydrates [PDF]
The sequence in which sugars are added to the Sindbis virus glycoproteins was studied. Infected cells contain three glycosylated virus-specific proteins: the two virion glycoproteins and the immediate precursor to the smaller virion glycoprotein. Larger Sindbis-specific proteins are not glycosylated.
