Mitochondria-mediated oxidative stress during viral infection

Jonathan Foo et al.

Summary: This article discusses the molecular mechanisms employed by viruses to interact with mitochondria and induce oxidative stress, as well as the strategies viruses use to benefit from increased ROS levels, control ROS production to maintain a favorable redox environment, and cope with ROS-mediated cell death.

Cyanobacteria and Algae-Derived Bioactive Metabolites as Antiviral Agents: Evidence, Mode of Action, and Scope for Further Expansion; A Comprehensive Review in Light of the SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak

Biswajita Pradhan et al.

Summary: COVID-19 has attracted global attention due to its devastating impact. The screening of known antiviral drugs has led to poor results, making the search for new natural therapeutic drugs necessary. Marine algae are reported to contain bioactive metabolites with antiviral and immunomodulatory activities, making them potential sources for developing anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs.

HIV-1 Env induces pexophagy and an oxidative stress leading to uninfected CD4+T cell death

Coralie F. Daussy et al.

Summary: The immunodeficiency observed in HIV-1-infected patients is mainly due to bystander CD4(+)T lymphocyte cell death, triggered by the viral envelope glycoprotein Env-induced autophagy and oxidative stress. Env-mediated autophagy targets peroxisomes, leading to the degradation of these organelles and contributing to immunodeficiency induced by HIV-1.

Viral inhibitors derived from macroalgae, microalgae, and cyanobacteria: A review of antiviral potential throughout pathogenesis

Daman Reynolds et al.

Summary: Viruses are non-living obligate parasites that manipulate cellular machinery to replicate, causing harmful effects. The global spread of diseases, highlighted by COVID-19, calls for innovative responses and the development of accessible, cost-effective antiviral drugs to combat infections. Natural compounds, particularly those derived from algae, show promise in providing diverse mechanisms for potential lifesaving medications.

PLIP 2021: expanding the scope of the protein-ligand interaction profiler to DNA and RNA

Melissa F. Adasme et al.

Summary: With the growth of protein structure data, the analysis of molecular interactions between ligands and their target molecules becomes increasingly important. PLIP, a tool for protein-ligand interaction profiling, has been successful in detecting and visualizing these interactions, with applications ranging from characterizing docking experiments to evaluating novel ligand-protein complexes. Additionally, PLIP has been extended to encompass interactions with DNA and RNA, demonstrating its utility in scenarios such as cancer drug targeting DNA and RNA-protein complexes associated with neurological diseases.
