Interferon is important for anti-viral defense of the host. The E2, NS3/4A, and NS5A proteins of hepatitis C virus (HCV) have recently been reported to confront anti-viral action induced by interferon. However, roles of the individual HCV proteins in anti-interferon action are still not well understood. We have isolated an HCV strain, HCV-K, from a patient with acute hepatitis. Nucleotide seque...
Elevated liver enzyme level is an outstanding feature in patients with dengue. However, the pathogenic mechanism of liver injury has not been clearly demonstrated. In this study, employing a mouse model we aimed to investigate the immunopathogenic mechanism of dengue liver injury. Immunocompetent C57BL/6 mice were infected intravenously with dengue virus strain 16681. Infected mice had transien...
Reactivation of serotype cross-reactive CD8+ memory T lymphocytes is thought to contribute to the immunopathogenesis of dengue disease during secondary infection by a heterologous serotype. Using cytokine flow cytometry, we have defined four novel HLA-A*02-restricted dengue viral epitopes recognized by up to 1.5% of circulating CD8+ T cells in four donors after primary vaccination. All four don...
BACKGROUND The traditional methods, plaque assays and immuno-focus assays, used to titrate infectious dengue virus (DENV) particles are time consuming and labor intensive. Here, we developed a DENV protease activity detection system (DENPADS) to visualize DENV infection in cells based on dengue protease activity. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Dengue NS3 protease cleaves NS4B-NS5. BHK-21 cell...
Viral infections activate cellular expression of type I interferons (IFNs). These responses are partly triggered by RIG-I and mediated by Cardif, TBK1, IKKepsilon and IRF-3. This study analysed the mechanisms of dsRNA-induced IFN responses in various cell lines that supported subgenomic hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication. Transfection of dsRNA into Huh7, HeLa and HEK293 cells induced an IFN ex...
To identify the molecular determinants for attenuation of wild-type Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus strain SA14, the RNA genome of wild-type strain SA14 and its attenuated vaccine virus SA14-2-8 were reverse transcribed, amplified by PCR and sequenced. Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of SA14-2-8 vaccine virus with virulent parent SA14 virus and with two other attenuated vaccine viruses d...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of viral hepatitis. There is no effective therapy for most patients. We have identified a nucleotide binding motif (NBM) in one of the virus's nonstructural proteins, NS4B. This structural motif binds and hydrolyzes GTP and is conserved across HCV isolates. Genetically disrupting the NBM impairs GTP binding and hydrolysis and dramatically inhibits HCV RN...
