Potential Viroporin Candidates From Pathogenic Viruses Using Bacteria-Based Bioassays

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Viroporins are a family of small hydrophobic proteins found in many enveloped viruses that are capable of ion transport. Building upon the ability to inhibit influenza by blocking its archetypical M2 H+ channel, as a family, viroporins may represent a ...

Pietro Verri: The History of Smallpox Vaccination Through His Pencil

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The last case of natural smallpox infection occurred in 1977, and the disease is considered eradicated since 1980. Throughout the history of medicine, early attempts to combat smallpox involved inoculation, a practice based on the observation that those who recovered from the disease became immune.

A longitudinal study of avian pox in a small passerine, the Dunnock (Prunella modularis)

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Long‐term, longitudinal studies of disease in wild bird populations are rare. Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).

Designing a smallpox B-cell and T-cell multi-epitope subunit vaccine using a comprehensive immunoinformatics approach

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Smallpox is a highly contagious human disease caused by the variola virus. Although the disease was eliminated in 1979 due to its highly contagious nature and historical pathogenicity, with a mortality rate of up to 30%, this virus is an important ...

Targeting β2‐Adrenergic Receptor Stability With Lycorine Reveals a Host‐Directed Pathway for Antiviral Defense Against Poxviruses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 62, 9 November 2026.
Chronic stress drives autophagy‐mediated β2‐AR degradation, impairing antiviral immunity and promoting poxvirus lethality. Lycorine directly stabilizes β2‐AR to restore host defense, suppress excessive inflammation and improve survival. ABSTRACT Psychological stress is a pervasive yet poorly understood modulator of infectious disease outcomes. Here, we
