Dengue virus (DENV) is an important arthropod-borne viral disease, with four antigenically and genetically diverse serotypes (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4). Timely and accurate diagnosis of dengue virus serotypes is crucial for the management of outbreaks. This study focussed on the development of a RT-PCR based lateral flow strip assay to detect DENV serotypes in a dual detection manner without using gel electrophoresis.

Background Globally, dengue fever (DF) is the leading cause of arthropod-borne viral illness, which considerably contributes to an atrocious death rate. The disease is now endemic in some parts of the world, including Bangladesh. The disorder exhibits a wide range of clinical and laboratory features in children.

Flaviviruses, which are transmitted by mosquitoes, are arthropod-borne infections that are pathogenic to both humans and animals, posing a significant global threat to public health. So far, various endocytic pathways have been reported for flaviviral entry; however, the role of cellular factors in viral replication and entry remains uncertain. Here in this study, we identified the role of Low-density lipoprotein receptor, which has long been established as a cholesterol carrier for neurons but remained unexplored as an essential host factor for JEV/WNV replication.

High-density suspension cultures of insect cells offer a scalable and serum-free system for the expression of recombinant proteins. Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), an arthropod-borne virus spread by mosquitoes, contains two envelop glycoproteins Gn and Gc. These glycoproteins are crucial for eliciting neutralizing antibodies that can offer protection against RVFV infection.
