Unlabelled: Platelet factor 4 (PF4) has been shown to regulate several viral infections. Our previous study demonstrated that PF4 inhibits the entry of enterovirus A 71 (EV71) and coxsackievirus A16 (CA16), which cause hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). In this study, we report that PF4 also inhibits the circulating HFMD pathogen coxsackievirus A6 (CA6) and the re-emerging enterovirus D68 (EVD68).
