Ronen Borenstein,Barbara A. Hanson,Ruben M. Markosyan,Elisa S. Gallo,Srinivas D. Narasipura,Maimoona S Bhutta,Oren Shechter,Nell S. Lurain,Fredric S. Cohen,Lena Al-Harthi,Daniel A. Nicholson +10 more
TL;DR: GA inhibits Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) by inhibition of both fusion and viral protein synthesis and shows a broad spectrum of fusion inhibition by GA of all three classes of fusion proteins including HIV, Ebola virus, influenza A virus and Epstein Barr virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multifaceted role of AMPK in viral infections
TL;DR: Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, understanding the regulation of AMPK signaling following infection can shed light on the development of more effective therapeutic strategies against viral infectious diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress-Induced Epstein-Barr Virus Reactivation
Daniel G Sausen,Maimoona S Bhutta,Elisa S Gallo,Harel Dahari,Ronen Borenstein,Ronen Borenstein +5 more
TL;DR: A review of the interaction between both psychological and cellular stressors resulting in EBV reactivation is provided in this paper, where the authors examine mechanisms by which EBV establishes and maintains latency and conclude with a brief overview of treatments targeting EBV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ginkgolic Acid Inhibits Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Skin Infection and Prevents Zosteriform Spread in Mice.
Maimoona S Bhutta,Oren Shechter,Elisa S. Gallo,Stephen D. Martin,Esther Jones,Gustavo F. Doncel,Ronen Borenstein +6 more
TL;DR: Ginkgolic acid’s antiviral activity against HSV-1 skin infection in BALB/cJ mice is reported and it is anticipated it to be effective against additional cutaneous and potentially systemic viral infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evasion of the Host Immune Response by Betaherpesviruses.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the complex interplay between betaherpesviruses and the human immune response, focusing on protein function and explore methods by which the immune system first responds to beta-herpesvirus infection as well as mechanisms by which viruses subvert normal cellular functions to evade the immune systems and facilitate viral latency, persistence, and reactivation.
