Azithromycin Protects against Zika Virus Infection by Upregulating Virus-Induced Type I and III Interferon Responses

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
Azithromycin (AZM) is a widely used antibiotic, with additional antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties that remain poorly understood. Although Zika virus (ZIKV) poses a significant threat to global health, there are currently no vaccines or effective

Estimating the reproductive number, total outbreak size, and reporting rates for Zika epidemics in South and Central America [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
As South and Central American countries prepare for increased birth defects from Zika virus outbreaks and plan for mitigation strategies to minimize ongoing and future outbreaks, understanding important characteristics of Zika outbreaks and how they vary across regions is a challenging and important problem.

Prenatal Diagnosis and Prognostic Factors in Fetuses With Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) is characterized by the presence of multiple joint contractures in the fetus' body. The diagnosis of arthrogryposis is complex and often missed prenatally. This comprehensive review of the literature published over the last 20 years, with an emphasis on the role of prenatal ultrasound in predicting postnatal ...

Serological evidence of Zika virus infection in febrile patients at Greater Accra Regional Hospital, Accra Ghana

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2019
Objective Increase in the evidence of global occurrence of Zika viral infection suggests that in Africa the circulation of the virus which causes 80% of asymptomatic infection could be undetected and/or overlooked.

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...

Human antibody responses after dengue virus infection are highly cross-reactive to Zika virus

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2016
Significance In this study, we address the issue of cross-reactivity between dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) by testing sera and plasmablast-derived monoclonal antibodies from dengue patients against ZIKV.

The Antiviral Activity of Polyphenols

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Polyphenols demonstrate remarkable antiviral properties by effectively disrupting multiple biochemical processes essential for viral replication. ABSTRACT Polyphenols are secondary metabolites produced by a large variety of plants. These compounds that comprise the class of phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, coumarins, flavonoids, and tannins have a ...

A rhesus macaque model of Asian-lineage Zika virus infection

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Infection with Asian-lineage Zika virus (ZIKV) has been associated with Guillain–Barré syndrome and fetal abnormalities, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Animal models of infection are thus urgently needed. Here we show that rhesus
