The interactions occurring between a virus and a host cell during a viral infection are complex. The purpose of this paper was to analyze altered cellular protein levels in porcine transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus (TGEV)-infected swine…
‘COVID-19’ the recent virulent viral infection had influenced the lives of millions globally leading to bothloss of life, economic and financial crisis. Coronavirus belongs to family coronaviridae with four genusviz. α/b and g-coronavirus, infecting…
The plants lacking a defense system based on similar antibodies to which exists in animals, bases their protection on physical characteristics and in a series of components that the own plant synthesizes. Inside those compounds, the proteins…
Viroporins are members of a rapidly growing family of channel-forming small polypeptides found in viruses. The present review will be focused on recent structural and protein-protein interaction information involving two viroporins found in enveloped…
Protein interaction with polymers layers is a keystone in designing bio-nano devices. Polyamidoamines (PAMAMs) are well-known polymers. Zero aromatic core dendrimers (ZAC) are molecules with no proven toxic effect in cultured cells. When coating…
The present study aims to generate information about the importance of eating bushmeat over other sources of animal protein - wild (fish), domestic or industrial- in four regions of Colombia, from the rural to the urban. The data of animal protein…
Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) sense viral infections and induce production of type I interferons (IFNs), other cytokines, and chemokines. Viral recognition by TLRs and other pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) has been proven to be cell-type specific.…
Some coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients develop acute pneumonia which can result in a cytokine storm syndrome in response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The most effective anti-inflammatory drugs…
Background: With the outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic in China, the general public but also medical staff were confronted with psychological challenges, suffering from the highly infectious and unknown characteristics of…
