PSGL-1 is an evolutionarily conserved antiviral restriction factor

The arms race between viruses and their hosts shaped the evolutionary history and the genome composition of both parties. Restriction factors are the first-line antiviral effectors encoded by the host genomes and are often conserved through evolution to pr ...

Viral Genetic Determinants of Prolonged Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection Among Infants in a Healthy Term Birth Cohort

Jacques Fellay, Zhi Ming Xu, Dylan Lawless, Thomas Junier

Background. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is associated with acute respiratory infection. We sought to identify RSV variants associated with prolonged infection. Methods. Among healthy term infants we identified those with prolonged RSV infection and c ...

Ligand concentration determines antiviral efficacy of silica multivalent nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Quy Ong Khac, Xufeng Xu, Rémi Andréa La Polla, Heyun Wang

We have learned from the recent COVID-19 pandemic that the emergence of a new virus can quickly become a global health burden and kill millions of lives. Antiviral drugs are essential in our fight against viral diseases, but most of them are virus-specific ...

The neuraminidase activity of influenza A virus determines the strain-specific sensitivity to neutralization by respiratory mucus

Athanasios Nenes, Tamar Kohn, Kalliopi Violaki, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos, Aline Laetitia Schaub, Shannon Christa David, Walter Hugentobler

Respiratory mucus lining the airway epithelium constitutes an important first line of defense against infection with influenza A virus (IAV). Previous studies suggested that the inhibitory potential of mucus relies not only on the presence of decoy recepto ...

Phase separation in viral infections

Christina Ernst, Haohua Li

Viruses rely on the reprogramming of cellular processes to enable efficient viral replication; this often requires subcompartmentalization within the host cell. Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) has emerged as a fundamental principle to organize and su ...

Polyanionic Amphiphilic Dendritic Polyglycerols as Broad-Spectrum Viral Inhibitors with a Virucidal Mechanism

Francesco Stellacci, Matteo Gasbarri, Valeria Cagno

Heparin has been known to be a broad-spectrum inhibitor of viral infection for almost 70 years, and it has been used as a medication for almost 90 years due to its anticoagulant effect. This nontoxic biocompatible polymer efficiently binds to many types of ...

A Baseline Cellular Antiviral State Is Maintained by cGAS and Its Most Frequent Naturally Occurring Variant rs610913

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Shuting Xu

Upon recognition of aberrantly located DNA, the innate immune sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) activates stimulator of IFN genes (STING)/IFN regulatory factor (IRF)3-driven antiviral responses. In this study, we characterized the ability of a specific ...
