Abstract Rabies virus (RABV) is a neurotropic virus of the genus Lyssavirus that causes a nearly always fatal encephalitis in humans once it reaches the central nervous system. Dog bites are a major transmission route of RABV, and following superficial skin exposure, RABV first encounters epidermal Langerhans cells (LC...

Siglec-1 (Sialoadhesin/CD169), expressed on myeloid cells, is a receptor for sialic acids that mediates adhesion to host cells and pathogens. However, certain pathogens exploit Siglec-1 binding for further dissemination and interfering with this binding may serve as potential therapeutic interventions. Here we identifi...

A capsid-targeting biological composed of a single-domain Llama VHH that binds CA, fused to human IgG1 Fc to activate TRIM21-mediated degradation results in inhibition of viral replication through TRIM21-mediated proteasome degradation of the HIV-1 capsid, establishing capsid-directed biologicals as therapeutic strateg...

Newly developed single-domain antibodies against Siglec-1 are used against Siglec-1 as a candidate inhibitor to limit HIV-1 transmission and support the development of host-directed nanobody-based strategies to reduce HIV-1 spread.

The results demonstrate the broad neutralization potential of anti-capsid biologics with a high barrier to resistance, making capsid-targeting inhibitors important for novel antiretroviral drug strategies worldwide.
