Our examination of RNA helicases for effects on HIV-1 protein production and particle assembly identified Rocaglamide (RocA), a known modulator of eIF4A1 function, as an inhibitor of HIV-1 replication in primary CD4+ T cells and three cell systems. H...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of VirClia IgM/IgG single-assay chemiluminescence tests for the diagnosis of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in an endemic part of Norway. Patients hospitalized at Vestfold or Telemark Hospi...

RNA viruses, being submicroscopic organisms, have intriguing biological makeups and substantially impact human health. Microscopic methods have been utilized for studying RNA viruses at a variety of scales. In order of observation scale from large to...

Since combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) was introduced to treat human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), the AIDS mortality rate has markedly decreased, and convalescence in individuals with HIV h...

Group B Coxsackieviruses (CVB) are one of the causative pathogens of myocarditis, which may progress to cardiomyopathy. The pathogenesis of CVB is not fully understood, and effective antiviral therapy is not available. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), the cla...

African swine fever virus (ASFV) is the causative agent of an often lethal disease in domestic pigs, African swine fever (ASF). ASF is currently a pandemic disease challenging pig production in Eurasia. While the ASFV genome encodes for over 160 prot...

Post COVID-19 condition (PCC) is defined as ongoing symptoms at ≥1 month after acute COVID-19. We investigated the risk of PCC in an international cohort according to viral variants. We included 7699 hospitalized patients in six centers (January 2...

Insect-specific viruses (ISVs) include viruses that are restricted to the infection of mosquitoes and are spread mostly through transovarial transmission. Despite using a distinct mode of transmission, ISVs are often phylogenetically related to arthr...

Oropouche Virus (OROV; genus of Orthobunyavirus) is the causal agent of Oropouche Fever (OF). Due to the lack of specific signs and symptoms and the limited availability of diagnostic tests, the actual epidemiology of OROV infections and OF has been...

Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1) establishes lifelong latency in trigeminal ganglionic (TG) neurons following intranasal and ocular infection in cattle. Periodically, the latent virus reactivates in the TG due to stress and is transported anterogra...
