Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Caliciviridae Infections:

1.	Viral AntigensIBA 05/01/2000 - "The evolution of our understanding of immunity to calicivirus infection, using Norwalk virus as the prototype, is discussed in three stages: (1) "ancient times (1972-1978), when human volunteer studies prevailed, (2) the "middle ages (1978-1990), which were characterized by the development and implementation of solid-phase immunoassays based on native viral antigens, and (3) "modern times (1990 to present), which began with the cloning of the genome of the noncultivatable 8FIIa strain of Norwalk virus and resulted in a readily available source of recombinant virus-like particles that have revolutionized the study of caliciviruses. " 02/10/2005 - "We conclude that: (i) the cellular inflammatory response of the liver to calicivirus infection is different in rabbits that are susceptible (adult) or resistant (young) to RHD; (ii) leukocyte infiltration of the adult liver by heterophils is probably directed at the removal of dead hepatocytes, whereas the liver lymphocytic infiltration of young rabbits suggests the expression of viral antigens on the surface of liver cells of the RHD-resistant animals."
2.	Cathepsin LIBA 09/01/2014 - "The results of this study suggest the important role of endosome maturation and cathepsin L in the entry of caliciviruses, and cathepsin L as a potential therapeutic target for calicivirus infection. "
3.	AntigensIBA 10/01/1999 - "Previous studies using baculovirus-expressed Norwalk virus (NV) and Mexico virus (MxV) capsid antigens have shown that human calicivirus infection is common in South Africa. "
4.	Blood Group Antigens (Blood Groups)IBA 08/12/2014 - "Role of histo-blood group antigens in primate enteric calicivirus infections." 01/01/2015 - "The recent discovery that human noroviruses (huNoVs) recognize sialic acids (SAs) in addition to histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) pointed to a new direction in studying virus-host interactions during calicivirus infection. "
5.	Sialic AcidsIBA 01/01/2015 - "The recent discovery that human noroviruses (huNoVs) recognize sialic acids (SAs) in addition to histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) pointed to a new direction in studying virus-host interactions during calicivirus infection. "
6.	EpitopesIBA 06/01/2005 - "Identification of type-specific and cross-reactive epitopes is essential for designing broadly cross-reactive diagnostic assays and dissecting the immune response to calicivirus infection. "
7.	AntibodiesIBA 02/15/2008 - "We conclude that calicivirus infection of young rabbits induces specific anti-calicivirus antibodies that will protect them from RHD when they reach adulthood."
8.	TransaminasesIBA 02/01/2004 - "Liver transaminases peaked 24-48 h after calicivirus infection; this was the same timing when liver infiltration and hepatocyte damage were more evident. "
9.	anaferonIBA 08/01/2009 - "Therapy with anaferon (pediatric formulation) during the acute period of calicivirus infection shortened the duration of the main symptoms of the disease and period of virus release. " 08/01/2009 - "Clinical and immunological efficiency of anaferon (pediatric formulation) in calicivirus infection in children."
10.	SASIBA 01/01/2015 - "The recent discovery that human noroviruses (huNoVs) recognize sialic acids (SAs) in addition to histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) pointed to a new direction in studying virus-host interactions during calicivirus infection. "

"
2.	Transplants (Transplant) 11/01/2014 - "In this prospective study, we have monitored allogeneic stem cell transplant (ASCT) patients for human calicivirus infection. "
