Emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and potential intervention approaches.

TL;DR: The major variant of concerns (VOCs) have shared mutations in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike proteins, mostly on the S1 unit and resulted in higher transmissibility rate and affect viral virulence and clinical outcome as discussed by the authors.

Identification of lactoferrin-derived peptides as potential inhibitors against the main protease of SARS-CoV-2.

TL;DR: In this article , a peptide GSRY was predicted to have better physicochemical properties, and the value of '-C DOCKER interaction energy' between peptide gSRY and SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) was 80.8505 kcal/mol.

Two Different Therapeutic Approaches for SARS-CoV-2 in hiPSCs-Derived Lung Organoids

TL;DR: The efficacy of a new tetravalent neutralizing antibody targeting Spike protein and a synthetic peptide homologous to dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) receptor on host cells are demonstrated, providing proof-of-principle evidence that hiPSC-derived hLORGs represent an ideal in vitro system for testing both therapeutic and preventive modalities against COVID-19.

Antimicrobial Peptides: Current and Potential Applications in Biomedical Therapies

TL;DR: The wide-ranging functionality of AMPs against infection and disease of the urinary tract expands the list of effects beyond the “antimicrobial effects” originally assigned to them.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human β-defensin 2 is involved in CCR2-mediated Nod2 signal transduction, leading to activation of the innate immune response in macrophages

TL;DR: HBD 2 promotes CCR2-mediated Nod2 signaling, which induces production of type I IFNs and an inflammatory response, and enhances primary innate immunity leading to an effective adaptive immune response to HBD 2-conjugated antigen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a peptide derived from the heptad repeat 2 region of the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) spike glycoprotein that is capable of suppressing PEDV entry and inducing neutralizing antibodies.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the HR2P peptide and anti‐HR2P antibody can serve as a tool for dissecting the fusion mechanism of PEDV, guiding the search for potent inhibitors with therapeutic value against P EDV infection.
