Syncytium, sometimes also called a “giant cell,” is a large, multi-nucleated cell that is born from cell-cell fusions (Zimmerberg et al., 1993). While syncytia naturally occur in some tissues, such as ...

But it seems that once inside a cell, the Zika virus can also manipulate those proteins, so they are no longer expressed on the cell surface - they are downregulated by the virus. “That’s the most ...

We utilized our previously reported “resurfaced” Zika virus E domain III (“rsZDIII-2.39”) as the antigen and Aquifex aeolicus lumazine synthase (aaLS) as the nanoparticle and demonstrated that the ...

Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) can enter host cells via two distinct pathways. It is well established that NNV can enter host cells by binding to various receptors (such as the heat shock proteins ...
