Hepatitis B and D virus entry

Nature Reviews Microbiology
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) entry is the initial step of viral infection, leading to the formation of covalently closed circular DNA, which is a molecular reservoir of viral persistence and a key obstacle for HBV cure. The restricted entry of HBV into specific cell types determines the nature of HBV, which has a narrow host range in tissues and species ...

Virus entry by macropinocytosis

Nature Cell Biology, 2009
As obligatory intracellular parasites, viruses rely on host-cell functions for most aspects of their replication cycle. This is born out during entry, when most viruses that infect vertebrate and insect cells exploit the endocytic activities of the host cell to move into the cytoplasm.

Influenza Virus Entry inhibitors

2022
Influenza is a major challenge to health and the global economy. However, the increasing emergence of drug resistance during influenza pandemics cannot be ignored. It is particularly important to design and develop anti-influenza drugs with novel mechanisms of action for the treatment and prevention of influenza virus infections.

Influenza A Virus: Cellular Entry

2023
The frequent emergence of pathogenic viruses with pandemic potential has posed a significant threat to human health and economy, despite enormous advances in our understanding of infection mechanisms and devising countermeasures through developing various prophylactic and therapeutic strategies. The recent coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has re-

Ebola Virus Entry Inhibitors

2022
Ebola virus (EBOV) is one of the most deadliest agents already known, causing periodic epidemic of a severe hemorrhagic fever disease in Africa. Although two monoclonal antibody (mAb) drugs have recently received approval in the USA, additional therapeutics are still needed to combat potential outbreaks of resistance variants and other closely related ...

Entry of Influenza Virus

2006
As a major pathogen of human and certain animal species, influenza virus causes wide spread and potentially devastating disease. To initiate infection, the virus first binds to cellular receptors comprising either -(2,3 ) or -(2,6) linked sialic acid. Recent advances in our understanding of the influenza virus receptor and viral host species involved ...

Entry Inhibitors of Hepatitis C Virus

2022
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection affects approximately 1% of the world's population and is a major cause of chronic liver diseases. Although antiviral therapy consisting of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) can cure the majority of HCV patients, it is still limited by viral resistances, drug-drug interactions, and high costs.

Mechanisms of cell entry by influenza virus

Expert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, 2001
A wide range of viruses, including many human and animal pathogens representing various taxonomic groups, contain genomes that are enclosed in lipid envelopes. These envelopes are generally acquired in the final stages of assembly, as viruses bud from regions of the membrane of the infected cell at which virally encoded membrane proteins have ...

Nonpeptide Inhibitors of Measles Virus Entry

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2006
Measles virus (MV) is one of the most infectious pathogens known. Despite the existence of a vaccine, over 500,000 deaths/year result from MV or associated complications. Anti-measles compounds could conceivably reverse these statistics. Previously, we described a homology model of the MV fusion protein trimer and a putative binding site near the head ...
