A compendium of extracellular vesicle biogenesis inhibitors: From bench to bedside

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores a decade of research on extracellular vesicles (EVs), detailing their biogenesis and roles in health and disease. It emphasizes EVs' relevance for potential medical applications covering various conditions such as cancer, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and infectious diseases, bridging experimental findings with clinical ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Bidirectional uncoating of the genomic RNA of a helical virus. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1996
An essential step in the initiation of a virus infection is the release of the viral genome from the other constituents of the virus particle, a process referred to as uncoating. We have used reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction amplification procedures to determine the rate and direction of in vivo uncoating of the rod-shaped tobacco ...

Small Extracellular Vesicles from Neural Cells: Physiological and Pathological Roles, and Potential in Neurodegenerative Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 21, 5 June 2026.
Neural cell–derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are emerging as pivotal mediators in neurodegenerative diseases, exerting both pathogenic and therapeutic functions. This review synthesizes current evidence on how sEVs from distinct neural cell types regulate neurodegeneration, neuroprotection, biomarker discovery, and targeted drug delivery ...

LY6E mediates an evolutionarily conserved enhancement of virus infection by targeting a late entry step

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The interferon-induced gene LY6E increases virus infection, but the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Here, Mar et al. show that LY6E enhances uncoating of influenza A virus after endosomal escape and that viral enhancement by LY6E is conserved ...

Isolated HIV-1 core is active for reverse transcription

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2007
Whether purified HIV-1 virion cores are capable of reverse transcription or require uncoating to be activated is currently controversial. To address this question we purified cores from a virus culture and tested for the ability to generate authentic ...

Effects of Basic Amino Acids and Their Derivatives on SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A Virus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Amino acids have been implicated with virus infection and replication. Here, we demonstrate the effects of two basic amino acids, arginine and lysine, and their ester derivatives on infection of two enveloped viruses, SARS-CoV-2, and influenza A virus ...

Organoids: From Bench to Bedside Applications

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Organoids, as a groundbreaking biomedical research platform, utilize adult stem cells (ASCs), embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as sources. By integrating specific growth and differentiation signals within an extracellular matrix (e.g., Matrigel), organoids guide cells to self‐assemble into three‐dimensional ...

A tail-like assembly at the portal vertex in intact herpes simplex type-1 virions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Herpes viruses are prevalent and well characterized human pathogens. Despite extensive study, much remains to be learned about the structure of the genome packaging and release machinery in the capsids of these large and complex double-stranded DNA ...

Localized Phosphorylation of a Kinesin-1 Adaptor by a Capsid-Associated Kinase Regulates HIV-1 Motility and Uncoating

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Although microtubule motors mediate intracellular virus transport, the underlying interactions and control mechanisms remain poorly defined. This is particularly true for HIV-1 cores, which undergo complex, interconnected processes of cytosolic transport,
