Suppressors of Cytokine Signaling (SOCS)1 and SOCS3 Proteins Are Mediators of Interleukin‐10 Modulation of Inflammatory Responses Induced by Chlamydia muridarum and Its Major Outer Membrane Protein (MOMP) in Mouse J774 Macrophages

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
The immunopathology of chlamydial diseases is exacerbated by a broad‐spectrum of inflammatory mediators, which we reported are inhibited by IL‐10 in macrophages. However, the chlamydial protein moiety that induces the inflammatory mediators and the mechanisms by which IL‐10 inhibits them are unknown.

Signal-regulatory protein alpha is an anti-viral entry factor targeting viruses using endocytic pathways.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Signal-regulatory protein alpha (SIRPA) is a well-known inhibitor of phagocytosis when it complexes with CD47 expressed on target cells. Here we show that SIRPA decreased in vitro infection by a number of pathogenic viruses, including New World and Old ...

HBV Core Promoter Inhibition by Tubulin Polymerization Inhibitor (SRI‐32007)

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Approximately 257 million people chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) worldwide are at risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, despite the availability of potent nucleoside/tide inhibitors, currently there are no curative therapies for chronic HBV infections. To identify potential new antiviral molecules, a select group

Different but Not Unique: Deciphering the Immunity of the Jamaican Fruit Bat by Studying Its Viriome

open access: yesViruses, 2022
A specialized and fine-tuned immune response of bats upon infection with viruses is believed to provide the basis for a “friendly” coexistence with these pathogens, which are often lethal for humans and other mammals.

Arenavirus budding resulting from viral-protein-associated cell membrane curvature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Viral replication occurs within cells, with release (and onward infection) primarily achieved through two alternative mechanisms: lysis, in which virions emerge as the infected cell dies and bursts open; or budding, in which virions emerge gradually from

Urinary virome perturbations in kidney transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The human microbiome is important for health and plays a role in essential metabolic functions and protection from certain pathogens. Conversely, dysbiosis of the microbiome is seen in the context of various diseases. Recent studies have highlighted that

Transcriptome sequencing and annotation for the Jamaican fruit bat (Artibeus jamaicensis).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The Jamaican fruit bat (Artibeus jamaicensis) is one of the most common bats in the tropical Americas. It is thought to be a potential reservoir host of Tacaribe virus, an arenavirus closely related to the South American hemorrhagic fever viruses.
