RIG-I enhanced interferon independent apoptosis upon Junin virus infection. [PDF]
Junin virus (JUNV) is the etiological agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever (AHF), a human disease with a high case-fatality rate. It is widely accepted that arenaviral infections, including JUNV infections, are generally non-cytopathic. In contrast, here

Junín Virus Pathogenesis and Virus Replication
Junín virus, the etiological agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, causes significant morbidity and mortality. The virus is spread through the aerosolization of host rodent excreta and endemic to the humid pampas of Argentina.

Abstract The emerging viruses SARS‐CoV‐2 and arenaviruses cause severe respiratory and hemorrhagic diseases, respectively. The production of infectious particles of both viruses and virus spread in tissues requires cleavage of surface glycoproteins (GPs) by host proprotein convertases (PCs).

The knowns and unknowns of cardiac autoimmunity in viral myocarditis
Abstract Myocarditis can result from various infectious and non‐infectious causes that can lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure. Among the infectious causes, viruses are commonly suspected. But the challenge is our inability to demonstrate infectious viral particles during clinical presentations, partly because by that point, the ...

Surface layer proteins in species of the family Lactobacillaceae
Manuscript is focus on the prediction of slp genes within the Lactobacillaceae family and interconnection between the two different modular SLP domain organizations of the new reclassified genera. SLP applications are reviewed regarding heterologous display, pathogen exclusion, immunostimulation, and metal binding. Abstract The S‐layer or surface layer

Structural basis for recognition and regulation of arenavirus polymerase L by Z protein
Junin virus (JUNV) causes Argentine hemorrhagic fever and encodes the large protein (L) of the RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and its regulator, the matrix zinc-binding protein (Z).

Transmission of the New World hemorrhagic fever arenaviruses Junín virus (JUNV) and Machupo virus (MACV) to humans is facilitated, in part, by the interaction between the arenavirus GP1 glycoprotein and the human transferrin receptor 1 (hTfR1).
