Phylodynamics of Alagoas vesiculovirus in Brazil
The vesicular stomatitis virus belongs to the Rhabdoviridae family, genus Vesiculovirus. Four species (New Jersey, Indiana, Cocal, and Alagoas) are responsible for disease outbreaks in Western Hemisphere countries. In Brazil, the Alagoas virus is responsible for the main outbreaks of the disease, mainly in the states of the Northeast, Midwest, and ...

A Candidate Multi-Epitope Vaccine Against Pathogenic Chandipura Vesiculovirus Identified using Immunoinformatics. [PDF]
Abstract Chandipura vesiculovirus (CHPV) is a rapidly emerging pathogen responsible for causing acute encephalitis. Due to its widespread occurrence in Asian and African countries, this has become a global threat, and there is an urgent need to design an effective and non-allergenic vaccine against this pathogen.

Susceptibility of various animals to the vesiculovirus Piry [PDF]
SUMMARYTo determine the pathogenic potential of the vesiculovirus Piry for domestic animals, two ponies, two steers, three sheep, three goats and three pigs were inoculated intradermally in the tongue or, in the case of the pigs, in the snout, heel and coronary band.

Vesiculovirus Neutralization by Natural IgM and Complement [PDF]
ABSTRACTBecause of its very low human seroprevalence, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has promise as a systemic oncolytic agent for human cancer therapy. However, as demonstrated in this report, the VSV infectious titer drops by 4 log units during the first hour of exposure to nonimmune human serum.

Structural intermediates in the fusion‐associated transition of vesiculovirus glycoprotein [PDF]
Vesiculoviruses enter cells by membrane fusion, driven by a large, low-pH-induced, conformational change in the fusion glycoprotein G that involves transition from a trimeric pre-fusion toward a trimeric post-fusion state via monomeric intermediates.

Identification and Characterization of MicroRNAs in Snakehead Fish Cell Line upon Snakehead Fish Vesiculovirus Infection [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in mediating multiple biological processes in eukaryotes and are being increasingly studied to evaluate their roles associated with cellular changes following viral infection. Snakehead fish Vesiculovirus (SHVV) has caused mass mortality in snakehead fish during the past few years.

Leader RNA regulates snakehead vesiculovirus replication via interacting with viral nucleoprotein [PDF]
Leader RNA, a kind of virus-derived small noncoding RNA, has been proposed to play an important role in regulating virus replication, but the underlying mechanism remains elusive. In this study, snakehead vesiculovirus (SHVV), a kind of fish rhabdovirus causing high mortality to the cultured snakehead fish in China, was used to unveil the molecular ...

Hsp90 Is Required for Snakehead Vesiculovirus Replication via Stabilization of the Viral L Protein
It has long been proposed that cellular proteins are involved in viral RNA synthesis via interacting with the viral polymerase protein. This study focused on identifying cellular proteins interacting with the SHVV L protein, studying the effects of their interactions on SHVV replication, and revealing the underlying mechanisms.

Development of Vesiculovirus-based Therapeutics for Acute Leukemia
Outcomes for most patients with acute leukemia remain dismal. In-vitro, vesiculovirus members induced rapid apoptosis of acute leukemia cells. Intravenous injection of lymphoblastic leukemia cells infected ex-vivo with attenuated Vesicular Stomatitis Virus or Maraba Virus followed by gamma-irradiation, controlled leukemic progression in murine ...

A Pyrido-Quinoxaline Derivative That Downregulates Reticulon 3 Protein Exhibits Potent Antiviral Activity Against Zika Virus. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In the wake of the COVID‐19 pandemic, awareness of emerging pathogens has significantly increased, prompting greater investment in research and preparedness. In this context, arboviral diseases are recognized as unmet medical challenges due to their rapid spread. Notably, the geographical range of several flaviviral diseases is expanding: Zika
