Medical Gas Plasma Inactivates Adenoviruses via Capsid Oxidation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Oxidative modification of three adenoviral capsid proteins after gas plasma treatment. Schematic representation of the viral infection process, starting with the initial attachment of the virus via its fiber protein binding to the cellular receptors (CAR and/or CD46). In the secondary attachment step, the penton base binds to integrin structures on the

Alveolar Macrophages Isolated Directly From Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV)-Seropositive Individuals Are Sites of HCMV Reactivation In Vivo. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) causes significant morbidity in the immunocompromised host. Following primary infection, the virus establishes latent infection in progenitor cells of the myeloid lineage.

Selective Wettability–Driven Evaporation‐Enhanced Redox Cycling for Robust and Ultrasensitive Detection of Viral Particles

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Timely detection of viral infections, particularly in settings outside centralized laboratories, is essential for controlling outbreaks. Small electrochemical biosensors are appealing because they are fast, require microliter sample volumes, and can be integrated into portable devices.

Adenoviral vector with shield and adapter increases tumor specificity and escapes liver and immune control

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Viral gene therapy can be limited by the efficacy of virion sequestration, immune responses and the silencing of genetic payloads. Here the authors engineer an advenovirus protein coat which shields the virion from the immune system while targeting ...

Combined Transcriptomic and Proteomic Forecast Analyses for Potential Biomarkers of Smoking‐Induced Benign and Malignant Transformation of Vocal Fold Lesions

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal dysplasia and Reinke's edema (RE) are common vocal fold lesions associated with smoking. While the former is cancer prone, most cases of the latter do not undergo malignant transformation. Therefore, we proposed identifying biomarkers of smoking‐induced benign‐malignant transformation of vocal fold lesions.

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...
