New transmission scenarios of the argentine hemorrhagic fever since the introduction of the live attenuated junin virus vaccine (candid #1): an experience in migrant workers

open access: yesRevista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Pública, 2015
The Argentine hemorrhagic fever (AHF) is a severe acute viral disease caused by the Junin virus of the Arenaviridae family. The AHF endemic area coincides geographically with the largest grain export agro-industrial complex of the country [Argentina ...

Nuclease Activity of the Junín Virus Nucleoprotein C-Terminal Domain

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The mammarenavirus Junín (JUNV) is the causative agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, a severe disease of public health concern. The most abundant viral protein is the nucleoprotein (NP), a multifunctional, two-domain protein with the primary role as ...

Human Hemorrhagic Fever Causing Arenaviruses: Molecular Mechanisms Contributing to Virus Virulence and Disease Pathogenesis

open access: yesPathogens, 2015
Arenaviruses include multiple human pathogens ranging from the low-risk lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) to highly virulent hemorrhagic fever (HF) causing viruses such as Lassa (LASV), Junin (JUNV), Machupo (MACV), Lujo (LUJV), Sabia (SABV ...

Single dose rVSVΔG-JUNVGP vaccine protects guinea pigs against lethal Junin virus challenge

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2021
Junin virus (JUNV) is a pathogen of biodefense importance due to its potential for aerosol transmission and mortality rates reaching 30%. Currently, there are no JUNV vaccines licensed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for at-risk ...

Immunosuppression in Experimental Junin Virus Infection of Mice

open access: yesIntervirology, 1980
The effects of cyclophosphamide (CY), anti-mouse thymocyte sera, oxisuran, and cytosine arabinoside were evaluated in adult and newborn mice infected with Junin virus. Treatment with CY was the most effective, Adult mice, which are not normally susceptible to intracerebral infection with 10(3) LD50 of Junin virus, were rendered susceptible by treatment

Protection Against Junin Virus by Immunization with Live Tacaribe Virus

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1965
SummaryAdult guinea pigs immunized with the live Tacaribe virus are able to resist challenge with a large dose of Junin virus to which they are normally susceptible. Sera from the Tacaribe virus-immunized guinea pigs contain abundant homologous antibody demonstrable by both complement-fixation and plaque neutralization tests.

Multifaceted Small Molecules as Enzyme Modulators: Cases of Drug Discovery/Repurposing Illustrating Nature′s Pragmatism

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The cross‐reactivity of substrates, modulators with other enzymes significantly reduces/prevents our ability to design such highly specific, that is, “one warhead–one target”, modulators. On the other hand, the potential “impasse” fuels repurposing of already developed drugs.

Signal-regulatory protein alpha is an anti-viral entry factor targeting viruses using endocytic pathways.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Signal-regulatory protein alpha (SIRPA) is a well-known inhibitor of phagocytosis when it complexes with CD47 expressed on target cells. Here we show that SIRPA decreased in vitro infection by a number of pathogenic viruses, including New World and Old ...

Arthropod ectoparasites of synanthropic rodents in northern‐central Italy

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 787-793, December 2025.
The presence of ectoparasites in synanthropic rodents in various Italian provinces was investigated. Eighty‐one Rattus norvegicus, 49 Rattus rattus and 10 Mus musculus were examined Polyplax spinulosa lice, Myobiidae mites, Laelaps echidninus and Notoedres muris were mainly recovered.
