Comprehensive transcriptomic analysis identifies cholesterol transport pathway as a therapeutic target of porcine epidemic diarrhea coronavirus

open access: yesVirus Research
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a highly contagious virus that poses a serious threat to the global pig industry. Despite extensive efforts, the mechanism underlying virus entry for PEDV remains elusive.

The neural crest‐associated gene ERRFI1 is involved in melanoma progression and resistance toward targeted therapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ERRFI1, a neural crest (NC)‐associated gene, was upregulated in melanoma and negatively correlated with the expression of melanocytic differentiation markers and the susceptibility of melanoma cells toward BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi). Knocking down ERRFI1 significantly increased the sensitivity of melanoma cells to BRAFi.

Hepatitis C virus host cell entry [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2012
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major medical problem with at least 130 million infected individuals worldwide. Over the last decade multiple host factors required for HCV cell entry have been identified, but a detailed understanding of their mechanistic interplay remains elusive.

Tradeoffs in viral fitness driven by alternative entry pathways

open access: yesmBio
Enveloped viruses can enter cells either through endocytosis or by direct fusion with the plasma membrane. The latter pathway often leads to syncytia formation, caused by the fusion of infected cells with neighboring receptor-bearing cells.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein inhibits hepatitis C virus cell entry in human hepatoma cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cell entry of hepatitis C virus, pseudoparticles (HCVpp) and cell culture grown virus (HCVcc), requires the interaction of viral glycoproteins with CD81 and other as yet unknown cellular factors.

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Understanding the process of envelope glycoprotein incorporation into virions in simian and feline immunodeficiency viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The lentiviral envelope glycoproteins (Env) mediate virus entry by interacting with specific receptors present at the cell surface, thereby determining viral tropism and pathogenesis.

Infrared laser sampling of low volumes combined with shotgun lipidomics reveals lipid markers in palatine tonsil carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.

Explorations on the antiviral potential of zinc and magnesium salts against chikungunya virus: implications for therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundChikungunya virus (CHIKV), which causes chikungunya fever, is an arbovirus of public health concern with no approved antiviral therapies. A significant proportion of patients develop chronic arthritis after an infection.

ADAM17-dependent signaling is required for oncogenic human papillomavirus entry platform assembly

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Oncogenic human papillomaviruses (HPV) are small DNA viruses that infect keratinocytes. After HPV binding to cell surface receptors, a cascade of molecular interactions mediates the infectious cellular internalization of virus particles.
