Early during the infection process, rotavirus causes shutoff of cell protein synthesis, with nonstructural viral NSP3 playing a vital role in phenomenon. In this work, we have found that translation initiation factor 2alpha (eIF2alpha) infected cells becomes phosphorylated early after virus and remains state throughout replication cycle, leading to further inhibition synthesis. Under these restrictive conditions, however, proteins some cellular are efficiently translated. The phosphorylation...

ABSTRACT Initiation is the rate-limiting step in protein synthesis and therefore an important target for regulation. For initiation of translation most cellular mRNAs, cap structure at 5′ end bound by factor eukaryotic 4E (eIF4E), while poly(A) tail, 3′ end, recognized poly(A)-binding (PABP). eIF4G a scaffold that brings together eIF4E PABP, causing circularization mRNA thought to be efficient translation. Early infection, rotaviruses take over host machinery, severe shutoff cell synthesis....

Background/Objectives: Zika disease is caused by the virus (ZIKV) and represents a major public health problem because of complications in newborn babies from mothers who were infected during pregnancy. It estimated that 80% pregnant women are asymptomatic, which complicates identification individuals. In this study, we aimed to detect ZIKV asymptomatic effects newborns analyzed. Methods: The presence was evaluated through endpoint reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) 114...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly lethal liver cancer with late diagnosis; therefore, the identification of new early biomarkers could help reduce mortality. We determine tissue and plasma status five annexins during hepatocarcinogenesis by diethylnitrosamine-induced cirrhosis-HCC. found that Anxa5 was earliest upregulated gene at week 12 after HCC initiation, while Anxa1 Anxa2 were in advanced stages (weeks 18 22). Furthermore, protein level Annexin A1, A2, A5 A10 increased from...

Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) cause illness. Children under five years of age are highly vulnerable to these infections. Viral coinfection or multiple viral infection is a variable that can have significant impact on the evolution diseases.This cross-sectional study was carried out in Mexican children (under age) who had an ARI and were treated by emergency service hospital Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. The etiology, as well presence infections, determined. A structured questionnaire...

To assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices about Zika virus in both students workers at University of Veracruz, an online survey was conducted. The participants were divided into two groups: one according to sex, other whether they or students. Their answers classified rated as low, medium, high. results showed that knowledge prevailing among university population is considered medium 79.4% study population.

Human rhinovirus (HRV) is a leading cause of acute respiratory infection (ARI) in young children and infants worldwide has high impact on morbidity mortality this population. Initially, HRV was classified into two species: HRV-A HRV-B. Recently, species called HRV-C possibly another species, HRV-D, were identified. In Mexico, there little information about the role as ARI, presence importance such are not known. The aim study to determine clinical characteristics genetic variability Mexican...

Chronic liver disease is closely linked to dietary intake factors, such as high consumption of simple carbohydrates including sucrose. In this study, the influence sucrose on development hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), most common primary malignancy, was explored. Using hepatocarcinogen diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induce HCC in rat, we co-administered with DEN. The co-administration significantly modified body, and pancreas weight, well as, serum fatty acids triglycerides. DEN caused structural...
