Map3k14 as a Regulator of Innate and Adaptive Immune Response during Acute Viral Infection

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
The replication of virus in secondary lymphoid organs is crucial for the activation of antigen-presenting cells. Balanced viral replication ensures the sufficient availability of antigens and production of cytokines, and both of which are needed for ...

Activation of TLR4 by viral glycoproteins: A double-edged sword?

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Recognition of viral infection by pattern recognition receptors is paramount for a successful immune response to viral infection. However, an unbalanced proinflammatory response can be detrimental to the host.

Vaccinia virus protein A46R targets multiple Toll-like-interleukin-1 receptor adaptors and contributes to virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Viral immune evasion strategies target key aspects of the host antiviral response. Recently, it has been recognized that Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have a role in innate defense against viruses.

Autophagic machinery activated by dengue virus enhances virus replication

open access: yesVirology, 2008
Autophagy is a cellular response against stresses which include the infection of viruses and bacteria. We unravel that Dengue virus-2 (DV2) can trigger autophagic process in various infected cell lines demonstrated by GFP-LC3 dot formation and increased LC3-II formation.

Virus-based vaccine vectors with distinct replication mechanisms differentially infect and activate dendritic cells

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2021
The precise mechanism by which many virus-based vectors activate immune responses remains unknown. Dendritic cells (DCs) play key roles in priming T cell responses and controlling virus replication, but their functions in generating protective immunity ...

Activation of the beta interferon promoter by paramyxoviruses in the absence of virus protein synthesis

open access: yes, 2012
Conflicting reports exist regarding the requirement for virus replication in interferon (IFN) induction by paramyxoviruses. Our previous work has demonstrated that pathogen-associated molecular patterns capable of activating the IFN-induction cascade are

The transcriptional response of Drosophila melanogaster to infection with the sigma virus (Rhabdoviridae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bacterial and fungal infections induce a potent immune response in Drosophila melanogaster, but it is unclear whether viral infections induce an antiviral immune response.

Locus-specific proteomics identifies novel regulators of Epstein-Barr virus lytic reactivation

open access: yesJournal of Virology
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human gamma-herpesvirus which infects over 90% of the global population and is associated with lymphoid and epithelioid cancers. After infection, EBV enters a latent state in B cells, whereby the viral genome persists as

The hepatitis B virus X protein activates nuclear factor of activated T cells (NF-AT) by a cyclosporin A-sensitive pathway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The X gene product of the human hepatitis B virus (HBx) is a transcriptional activator of various viral and cellular genes. We recently have determined that the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) by HBV-infected hepatocytes is ...

Dengue virus activates polyreactive, natural IgG B cells after primary and secondary infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Dengue virus is transmitted by mosquitoes and has four serotypes. Cross-protection to other serotypes lasting for a few months is observed following infection with one serotype.
