Rational Development of Hypervalent Glycan Shield-Binding Nanoparticles with Broad-Spectrum Inhibition against Fatal Viruses Including SARS-CoV-2 Variants

Ying Li, Shuxin Xu, Qing Ye, Hang Chi, Zhanchen Guo, Jingran Chen, Mei Wu, Baochao Fan, Bin Li, Cheng-Feng Qin, Zhen Liu

Summary: This study reports an unprecedented broad-spectrum antiviral strategy targeting viral glycan shields. By using hypervalent mannose-binding nanoparticles, the virus-receptor interaction can be blocked, viral aggregation can be induced, thereby inhibiting virus entry and facilitating virus phagocytosis. This strategy exhibits potent broad-spectrum antiviral efficacy against various viruses, including the novel coronavirus and its major variants, as well as other significant viruses.

Key Residue in the Precursor Region of M Protein Contributes to the Neurovirulence and Neuroinvasiveness of the African Lineage of Zika Virus

Meng-Jiao He, Hong-Jiang Wang, Xiu-Li Yan, Ya-Nan Lou, Guang-Yuan Song, Rui-Ting Li, Zhu Zhu, Rong-Rong Zhang, Cheng-Feng Qin, Xiao-Feng Li

Summary: This study reveals that the neurovirulence and neuroinvasiveness of Zika virus (African lineage) are associated with the 21st residue of the prM protein, while the Asian lineage possesses a different residue that contributes to its higher pathogenicity in neural cells and mice. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the characteristics and implications of different lineages of Zika virus.

Rong-Rong Zhang, Zheng-Jian Wang, Yi-Long Zhu, Wei Tang, Chao Zhou, Suo-Qun Zhao, Mei Wu, Tao Ming, Yong-Qiang Deng, Qi Chen, Ning-Yi Jin, Qing Ye, Xiao Li, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: The re-emerging mpox virus has become a public health emergency of international concern and developing a safe and effective mRNA vaccine against it is a top priority. Using a lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated mRNA vaccine platform, a panel of multicomponent MPXV vaccine candidates were constructed and prepared, which elicited strong immune responses in mice. Particularly, the penta- and tetra-component vaccine candidates showed superior capability of inducing neutralizing antibodies and protecting mice from VACV challenge. This study provides critical insights for understanding the protection mechanism of MPXV infection and supports further clinical development of these multicomponent mRNA vaccine candidates.

Zika virus leads to olfactory disorders in mice by targeting olfactory ensheathing cells

Jia Zhou, Meng-Yue Guan, Rui-Ting Li, Yi-Ni Qi, Guan Yang, Yong-Qiang Deng, Xiao-Feng Li, Liang Li, Xiao Yang, Jian-Feng Liu, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: This study investigates the susceptibility and biological responses of the olfactory system to Zika virus (ZIKV) infection. The results show that ZIKV can invade the olfactory system and lead to post-viral olfactory dysfunction (PVOD). ZIKV mainly targets olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) and exhibits broad cellular tropism in the olfactory mucosa (OM) of immunodeficient mice.

A pangolin-origin SARS-CoV-2-related coronavirus: infectivity, pathogenicity, and cross-protection by preexisting immunity

Xing-Yao Huang, Qi Chen, Meng-Xu Sun, Hang-Yu Zhou, Qing Ye, Wu Chen, Jin-Yu Peng, Yi-Ni Qi, Jun-Qiong Zhai, Ying Tian, Zi-Xin Liu, Yi-Jiao Huang, Yong-Qiang Deng, Xiao-Feng Li, Aiping Wu, Xiao Yang, Guan Yang, Yongyi Shen, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: Virus spillover remains a major challenge to public health. A panel of SARS-CoV-2-related coronaviruses have been identified in pangolins, while the infectivity and pathogenicity of these pangolin-origin coronaviruses (pCoV) in humans remain largely unknown. In this study, a recent pCoV isolate (pCoV-GD01) was characterized and compared to SARS-CoV-2, revealing similar infectivity and pathogenicity in human cells and organoids. Furthermore, preexisting immunity induced by SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination was found to provide partial cross-protection against pCoV-GD01 challenge.

Zika virus targets human trophoblast stem cells and prevents syncytialization in placental trophoblast organoids

Hao Wu, Xing-Yao Huang, Meng-Xu Sun, Yue Wang, Hang-Yu Zhou, Ying Tian, Beijia He, Kai Li, De-Yu Li, Ai-Ping Wu, Hongmei Wang, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: This study investigated the infectivity and pathological effects of Zika virus (ZIKV) on placental trophoblast progenitor cells in early human embryos. The researchers found that human trophoblast stem cells (hTSCs) were susceptible to ZIKV infection, but resistance increased with cell differentiation. ZIKV infection disrupted the structure of mature hTSC-organoids and inhibited syncytialization. The researchers also suggested that ZIKV infection may lead to a preeclampsia phenotype.

Summary: The study identified a specific amino acid substitution, K101R, in the capsid protein of the African lineage Zika virus, which contributes to enhanced replication and inflammatory responses, thus increasing its virulence phenotype compared to the Asian lineage.

Flavivirus Concentrates Host ER in Main Replication Compartments to Facilitate Replication

Yali Ci, Kai Han, Jie Kong, Shuhan Huang, Yang Yang, Cheng-Feng Qin, Lei Shi

Summary: This study reveals that Flavivirus remodels the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to generate replication compartments (RCs) and adopts a centralized replication mode. Superresolution live-cell imaging demonstrates the formation of perinuclear main replication compartments (MRCs) through a series of events, including multisite ER clustering, growth and merging of ER clusters, directional movement, and convergence in the perinuclear region. These dynamic activities are driven by nonstructural (NS) proteins and are independent of microtubules and actin. Disrupting the formation of MRCs inhibits flavivirus replication.

PA-E18G substitution in influenza A virus confers resistance to ZX-7101, a cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitor

Dan Luo, Qing Ye, Rui-Ting Li, Hang-Yu Zhou, Jing-Jing Guo, Suo-Qun Zhao, Sen Zhang, Tao Jiang, Yong-Qiang Deng, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: ZX-7101A, an analogue of BXM, shows broad-spectrum antiviral activity against different subtypes of influenza A virus. In mice, ZX-7101A can effectively protect against lethal pH1N1 infection. Furthermore, a single amino acid substitution (E18G) is identified to be responsible for the resistance to both ZX-7101A and BXM.

Application of nucleic acid-encoded antibodies in prevention and treatment of emerging viral infectious diseases

Suoqun Zhao, Hang Chi, Chengfeng Qin, Yongqiang Deng

Summary: Emerging viral infectious diseases are diverse, fast-spreading and dangerous, causing outbreaks and epidemics worldwide with serious effects on health, society and economy. Vaccines, small-molecule drugs and monoclonal antibodies are important for addressing these diseases, particularly the monoclonal antibodies, which can effectively prevent the virus from entering host cells, block reinfection, and aid in viral clearance.

Bortezomib inhibits ZIKV/DENV by interfering with viral polyprotein cleavage via the ERAD pathway

Yali Ci, Bin Yao, Kun Yue, Yang Yang, Caimin Xu, De-feng Li, Cheng-Feng Qin, Lei Shi

Summary: Flaviviruses have been a serious threat to human health for decades, and there is a lack of effective therapeutic drugs. This study developed an assay to identify inhibitors that interfere with viral polyprotein cleavage and block Zika virus and dengue virus replication. Bortezomib was found to be the most potent inhibitor, inducing ubiquitination and aggregation of NS3, which attenuated its protease activity. This study identifies bortezomib as a potential drug for treating Zika virus and dengue virus infection and highlights the role of the ERAD pathway in the inhibition of flaviviruses by bortezomib.

Artificial Biomimetic Mineralization of Viruses: More than Calcium

Pan-Deng Shi, Yan-Peng Xu, Hui Zhao, Cheng-Feng Qin

Summary: Biomineralization is a common biological phenomenon where organisms utilize inorganic minerals to form their own structures. The concept of artificial biomimetic viral mineralization, inspired by the discovery of mineralized phages in nature, has been proposed and validated in various viruses. Biomineralized viruses exhibit unique physical and chemical properties, leading to distinct biological phenotypes during subsequent infection processes. The use of different inorganic minerals, such as calcium, silicon, aluminum, and ferrum, has been explored. This review summarizes recent advances in artificial biomimetic viral mineralization, emphasizing its potential applications and challenges in biomedicine.
