Signalling in viral entry. [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences CMLS, 2002
Viral infections are serious battles between pathogens and hosts. They can result in cell death, elimination of the virus or latent infection keeping both cells and pathogens alive.

Acid-dependent viral entry

open access: yesVirus Research, 2015
Virus infection of host cells requires that entry into the cell results in efficient genome release leading to translation and replication. These initial steps revolving around the entry and genomic release processes are crucial for viral progeny ...

Membranotropic peptides mediating viral entry [PDF]

open access: yesPeptide Science, 2018
The means used by enveloped viruses to bypass cellular membranes are well characterized; how- ever, the mechanisms used by non-enveloped viruses to deliver their genome inside the cell remain unresolved and poorly defined.

Disentangling Viral Entry Kinetics Using Lipid Bilayers Coating Silica Nanoparticles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Enveloped viruses infect cells via fusion between the viral envelope and a cellular membrane. This membrane fusion process is driven by viral proteins, but slow stochastic protein activation dominates fusion kinetics, making it challenging

Viral entry and escape from antibody-mediated neutralization influence hepatitis C virus reinfection in liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
End-stage liver disease caused by chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause for liver transplantation (LT). Due to viral evasion from host immune responses and the absence of preventive antiviral strategies, reinfection of the graft is

The Evolving Role of Zika Virus Envelope Protein in Viral Entry and Pathogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesViruses
Zika virus (ZIKV) was first discovered in Uganda’s Zika Forest in 1947. The early African viruses posed little or no health risk to humans. Since then, ZIKV has undergone extensive genetic evolution and adapted to humans, and it now causes a range ...

Antiviral therapies against Ebola and other emerging viral diseases using existing medicines that block virus entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Emerging viral diseases pose a threat to the global population as intervention strategies are mainly limited to basic containment due to the lack of efficacious and approved vaccines and antiviral drugs.

Entry pathways of herpes simplex virus type 1 into human keratinocytes are dynamin- and cholesterol-dependent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) can enter cells via endocytic pathways or direct fusion at the plasma membrane depending on the cell line and receptor(s).

Non-viral approaches to gene therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Several advances in non-viral gene transfer technology have been reported over the past year. Cationic lipids have been successfully used to deliver genes in vivo, providing a clear alternative to recombinant viruses.

Caveolin-1 associated adenovirus entry into human corneal cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The cellular entry of viruses represents a critical area of study, not only for viral tropism, but also because viral entry dictates the nature of the immune response elicited upon infection.
