Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

What role for cellular metabolism in the control of hepatitis viruses?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Hepatitis B, C and D viruses (HBV, HCV, HDV, respectively) specifically infect human hepatocytes and often establish chronic viral infections of the liver, thus escaping antiviral immunity for years.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Recycling Endosomes and Viral Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2016
Many viruses exploit specific arms of the endomembrane system. The unique composition of each arm prompts the development of remarkably specific interactions between viruses and sub-organelles. This review focuses on the viral–host interactions occurring

Inflammasomes in viral infection

open access: yesUirusu, 2009
The NOD-like receptors (NLRs) are a family of intracellular sensors of microbial motifs and damage-associated signals that have emerged as being a crucial component of the innate immune responses and inflammation. The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex, which include NLRs, their adaptor proteins and pro-caspase-1, that stimulates caspase-1 ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Exosome Biogenesis, Regulation, and Function in Viral Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2015
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles released upon fusion of multivesicular bodies(MVBs) with the cellular plasma membrane. They originate as intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) duringthe process of MVB formation.

Viral Infection in Asthma

open access: yesAllergology International, 2008
In bronchial asthma, respiratory virus infection involves several issues: 1) respiratory virus infection in infancy is a risk factor for, and may predispose to, the development of asthma later in life; 2) respiratory virus infection is associated with the acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma; and, 3) glucocorticosteroids (GC) are not adequate for ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Clinical and Epidemiological Features of Actual Tick-Borne Infections under Conditions of Mass Vaccination against Tick-Borne Viral Encephalitis (by the Example of a Megapolis)

open access: yesЭпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика, 2023
Relevance. The clinical aspects of tick­borne viral encephalitis (TBE) and Lyme borrelliosis (LB) as monoinfections are well known. At the same time, the issues of interaction of pathogens in tick­borne encephalitis – Lyme borrelliosis mixed infection ...
