Antiviral agents against equid alphaherpesviruses : current status and perspectives
(2016)Equid herpesvirus infections cause respiratory, neurological and reproductive syndromes. Despite preventive and control measures and the availability of vaccines and immunostimulants, herpesvirus infections still constitute ... -
Bovine interferon lambda Is a potent antiviral against SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro
(Frontiers Media, 2020-11)Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) is an antiviral naturally produced in response to viral infections, with activity on cells of epithelial origin and located in the mucosal surfaces. This localized activity results in reduced ... -
In vitro comparison of acyclovir, ganciclovir and cidofovir against equid alphaherpesvirus 3 and evaluation of their efficacy against six field isolates = Comparación in vitro de aciclovir, ganciclovir y cidofovir contra alfa-herpesvirus equino 3 y evaluación de la eficacia de los mismos frente a 6 aislamientos de campo del virus
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2018)Equid alphaherpesvirus 3 (EHV3) is the etiological agent of equine coital exanthema (ECE), which is a venereal, highly contagious disease, characterized by the formation of papules, vesicles, pustules and ulcers on the ... -
In-vivo activity of IFN-λ and IFN-α against bovine-viral-diarrhea virus in a mouse model
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02)Bovine-viral-diarrhea virus (BVDV) can cause significant economic losses in livestock. The disease is controlled with vaccination and bovines are susceptible until vaccine immunity develops and may remain vulnerable if a ... -
Interferon lambda protects cattle against bovine viral diarrhea virus infection
(Elsevier, 2020-12)Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) plays an important role in inducing an antiviral state in mucosal surfaces and has been used as an effective biotherapeutic against several viral diseases. Here we performed a proof of concept ... -
Review of antiviral peptides for use against zoonotic and selected non-zoonotic viruses
(Elsevier, 2021-08)Viruses remain one of the leading causes of animal and human disease. Some animal viral infections spread sporadically to human populations, posing a serious health risk. Particularly the emerging viral zoonotic diseases ... -
Structure-based drug design for envelope protein E2 uncovers a new class of bovine viral diarrhea inhibitors that block virus entry
(Elsevier, 2018-01)Antiviral targeting of virus envelope proteins is an effective strategy for therapeutic intervention of viral infections. Here, we took a computer-guided approach with the aim of identifying new antivirals against the ...
