Recent advances in the understanding of enterovirus A71 infection: a focus on neuropathogenesis

Han Kang Tee et al.

Summary: EV-A71 infection is associated with neurological complications and deaths compared to other enteroviruses. There is a need for further research on cellular tropisms, persistence, and invasion routes to develop more effective antivirals and vaccines against this virus.

Epidemiological dynamics of enterovirus D68 in the United States and implications for acute flaccid myelitis

Sang Woo Park et al.

Summary: Acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) has emerged in the United States as a rare but serious neurological condition since 2012, with Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) considered a main causative agent. Strong spatiotemporal association between EV-D68 and AFM was demonstrated, and the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic likely reduced the sizes of EV-D68 and AFM outbreaks in 2020.

Boceprevir, Calpain Inhibitors II and XII, and GC-376 Have Broad-Spectrum Antiviral Activity against Coronaviruses

Yanmei Hu et al.

Summary: The study identified four SARS-CoV-2 main protease inhibitors with potent antiviral activity and dual mechanism of action, targeting viral M-pro and host cathepsin L. These compounds showed broad-spectrum antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and human coronaviruses 229E, OC43, and NL63. Additionally, the research demonstrated additive antiviral effect when these compounds were combined with remdesivir, suggesting their potential as promising starting points for further development against existing and emerging coronaviruses.

The in vitro antiviral activity of lactoferrin against common human coronaviruses and SARS-CoV-2 is mediated by targeting the heparan sulfate co-receptor

Yanmei Hu et al.

Summary: The study highlights the important role of HSPGs in SARS-CoV-2 cell attachment, and demonstrates the broad-spectrum antiviral activity of LF against various coronaviruses, especially with BLF being more potent than HLF. BLF binds to HSPGs to block viral attachment, and its antiviral activity can be antagonized by the HSPG mimetic heparin. Combination therapy experiment shows synergistic effect of LF with remdesivir in cell culture.
