Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Mutagenesis of the conserved 51-nucleotide region of Sindbis virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We have constructed 25 site-specific mutations in a domain of 51 nucleotides in Sindbis virus that is highly conserved among all alphaviruses sequenced to date.

HLA alleles determine human T-lymphotropic virus-I (HTLV-I) proviral load and the risk of HTLV-I-associated myelopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The risk of disease associated with persistent virus infections such as HIV-I, hepatitis B and C, and human T-lymphotropic virus-I (HTLV-I) is strongly determined by the virus load.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Virus Maturation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biophysics, 2012
We examine virus maturation of selected nonenveloped and enveloped single-stranded RNA viruses, retroviruses, bacteriophages, and herpesviruses. Processes associated with maturation in the RNA viruses range from subtle (nodaviruses and picornaviruses) to dramatic (tetraviruses and togaviruses).

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

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 ...

Arthropod-borne disease challenges from planetary warming, urbanization, and migration

open access: yesVirology Journal
As the world confronts simultaneous climate and health emergencies, the spread of emerging infectious diseases, particularly arboviruses, underscores the intersection of planetary health, global mobility, and disease risk. Viral pathogens like Oropouche,

Vpu and BST2: still not there yet?

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Extensive investigations have identified two cellular proteins in humans that potently inhibit HIV-1 replication and are widely accepted as ‘restriction factors’.

Adsorption of MS2 bacteriophage on ultrafiltration membrane laboratory equipments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Virus adsorption has been quantified (i) on different materials including various containers made of glass, plastic or stainless steel and hollow fiber membranes made of polyethersulfone, polysulfone, PVDF or cellulose acetate (with two configurations ...
