The influenza A virus evades the host innate immune response to establish infection by inhibiting RIG-I activation through its nonstructural protein 1 (NS1). Here, we reported that receptor-transporting protein 4 (RTP4), an interferon-stimulated gene (ISG), targets NS1 to inhibit influenza A virus infection. Depletion of RTP4 significantly increased influenza A virus multiplication, while NS1-deficient viruses were unaffected.

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a betaherpesvirus capable of infecting numerous cell types and persisting throughout an infected individual's life. Disease usually occurs in individuals with compromised or underdeveloped immune systems. Several antivirals exist but have limitations relating to toxicity and resistance.

Under adverse environmental conditions, microorganisms are able to enter a state of cellular dormancy which consists of cell cycle arrest and interruption of multiplication. This process ensures their perpetuation in the infected host organism and enables the spread of disease. Throughout biological evolution, dormancy allowed microorganisms to persist in a harsh niche until favorable conditions for their reactivation were re-established.

Pseudorabies virus (PRV) belongs to the alpha herpesvirus family and is responsible for Aujeszky's disease in pigs. Similar to other alpha herpesviruses, PRV establishes a lifelong latent infection in trigeminal ganglion. These latently infected pigs serve as a reservoir for recurrent infections when reactivation is triggered, making the eradication of PRV a challenging task.
