The viral glycoprotein GP38 is a toxin in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (#CCHFV) that exacerbates vascular leak and viral dissemination, but can be targeted with an antibody to combat infection in mice. @PahmeierFelix @HarrisProgram @UCBerkeleySPH scim.ag/3QyN2cd

Our new seroepidemiological study, led by me, @rosie_aogo, Chloe Hasund & @HarrisProgram, shows that prior zika exposure can elevate #dengue risk caused by DENV2, DENV3, and DENV4, but not DENV1. #ZIKV vaccines must be developed and implemented carefully. science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…

Primary exposure to Zika virus is linked with increased risk of symptomatic dengue virus infection...

The risk of dengue disease varies by preexisting immunity to dengue and Zika virus and the secondary infecting dengue virus serotype.

Happy to share our preprint on CCHFV GP38, a secreted protein that can induce vascular leak and can be targeted by antibodies to prevent leak and viral spread. Great collaboration with Stephanie Monticelli et al (USMRIID), @McLellan_Lab & @ChandranLab. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Antibodies targeting Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus GP38 limit vascular leak and viral spread

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a priority pathogen transmitted by tick bites, with no vaccines or specific therapeutics approved to date. Severe disease manifestations include...

Congratulations @marcuspwong on this wonderful study suggesting that host inflammatory responses to DENV NS1 may be protective as well as pathogenic. @russellevance @HarrisProgram dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.…

The inflammasome pathway is activated by dengue virus non-structural protein 1 and is protective...

Author summary Dengue, caused by dengue virus (DENV), is the most prevalent mosquito-transmitted disease in humans and a significant public health issue worldwide. DENV nonstructural protein 1 (NS1)...

Sharing our pre-print: Primary exposure to Zika virus increases risk of symptomatic dengue virus infection with serotypes 2, 3, and 4 but not serotype 1 medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Primary exposure to Zika virus increases risk of symptomatic dengue virus infection with serotypes...

Infection with any of the four dengue virus serotypes (DENV1-4) can protect against or enhance subsequent dengue depending on pre-existing antibodies and the subsequent infecting serotype. Addition...
