Molecular Screening of Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) for Vector‐Borne Zoonotic Pathogens, South Moravia, Czech Republic

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 95-106, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Black flies (Simuliidae) are globally distributed blood‐feeding arthropods and vectors of viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens to many animal species, including humans. We investigated the occurrence of selected vector‐borne pathogens in black flies in South Moravia, Czech Republic, and evaluated their possible role in the ...

A Model of Superinfection of Virus-Infected Zebrafish Larvae: Increased Susceptibility to Bacteria Associated With Neutrophil Death

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Enhanced susceptibility to bacterial infection in the days following an acute virus infection such as flu is a major clinical problem. Mouse models have provided major advances in understanding viral-bacterial superinfections, yet interactions of the ...

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.

Protection against Fatal Sindbis Virus Encephalitis by Beclin, a Novel Bcl-2-Interacting Protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
bcl-2, the prototypic cellular antiapoptotic gene, decreases Sindbis virus replication and Sindbis virus-induced apoptosis in mouse brains, resulting in protection against lethal encephalitis.

Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...

Inhibition of Na+K+ATPase Activity in Membranes of Sindbis Virus-Infected Chick Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Alterations in intracellular concentrations of Na+and K+in Sindbis virus-infected cells result largely from inhibition of ouabain-sensitive Na+K+ATPase (Na+pump) activity.

Strategic Preparedness of Broad‐Spectrum Antivirals for Rapid Response Towards Next Pandemics

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
Nanoengineered broad‐spectrum antivirals (BSAs) represent a transformative approach to pandemic preparedness. Unlike virus‐specific drugs requiring separate development, BSAs act across multiple viral families through nanoengineering strategies that enhance solubility, bioavailability, and host‐targeted activity.

Longevity Studies of Sindbis Virus Infected Aedes Albopictus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The persistent captive life cycle of a virus infected mosquito was examined. The model system used was Aedes albopictus and the Alphavirus, Sindbis virus. The adult life span of virus infected Ae. albopictus was compared to the life span of virus free Ae.

Sindbis virus polyarthritis outbreak signalled by virus prevalence in the mosquito vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Polyarthritis and rash caused by Sindbis virus (SINV), was first recognised in northern Europe about 50 years ago and is known as Ockelbo disease in Sweden and Pogosta disease in Finland.

Implication for alphavirus host-cell entry and assembly indicated by a 3.5Å resolution cryo-EM structure

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Alphaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that contain several human pathogens. Here, the authors use block-based reconstruction method and provide a 3.5 Å cryo-EM structure of sindbis virus that identifies a conserved hydrophobic pocket near the viral ...
