The entry of Junin virus into Vero cells [PDF]
The entry mechanism of Junin virus (JV) into Vero cells was studied analyzing the effect of lysosomotropic compounds and acid pH on JV infection. Ammonium chloride, amantadine, chlorpheniramine and procaine inhibited JV production. The action of ammonium chloride was exerted at early times of infection.

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

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 ...

In vitro infection of murine macrophages with Junin virus [PDF]
Mouse peritoneal macrophages were successfully infected with two strains of Junin virus producing high titers with no apparent cell damage. Infected cultures survived longer than noninfected cultures. The pattern of virus release suggested a persistent infection.
