Human coronaviruses disassemble processing bodies

TL;DR: Exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and the common cold hu CoVs, OC43 and 229E, induced PB loss is shown to contribute to enhanced proinflammatory cytokine production observed during severe Sars-Cov-2 infection.
Posted ContentDOI

Viral manipulation of a novel mechanoresponsive signaling axis disassembles processing bodies

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that processing bodies (PBs), cytoplasmic sites of RNA decay, are regulated by mechanical signaling events that alter actin dynamics, and implies that cytoskeletal changes in other pathologies may similarly impact the inflammatory environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viral Manipulation of a Mechanoresponsive Signaling Axis Disassembles Processing Bodies.

TL;DR: In this paper, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus is the etiological agent of the inflammatory endothelial cancer, Kaposi’s Sarcoma, and a PB-regulating virus.

A viral protein utilizes the NDP52/CALCOCO2 selective autophagy receptor to disassemble processing bodies

TL;DR: In this article, the Kaposi9s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) KapB protein increases the synthesis of inflammatory mediators by driving autophagy and triggering PB disassembly.
