The arrival of SARS-CoV-2 in Brazil in March 2020 negatively impacted the economy, generated panic in the population and disrupted our country's public and private health systems. It is evident that there is a need for rapid diagnostic / prognostic methods and therapeutic alternatives to deal with this pandemic in our country. Thus, this multidisciplinary project, which involves researche…
Emerging viruses are agents associated with a new or a previous low-prevalent disease in a specific geographic region that significantly increased their incidence that area. Among the emerging viruses in Brazil is possible to highlight: Zika (ZIKV), Oropouche (OROV), Chikungunya (CHIKV), Mayaro (MAYV) and probably La Crosse (LACV), Iquitos virus (IQTV), Japanese Encephalitis (JEV), Saint …
The Oropouche (OROV) and Mayaro (MAYV) viruses are neglected arboviruses, which circulate mainly in the Amazon region and have great potential for dissemination to new areas of Latin America or other regions of the globe. They are etiologic agents that cause exanthematous febrile illnesses that can progress to severe clinical cases, such as, neurological complications or chronic arthralgi…
The Oropouche Vírus (OROV) is an emergent arbovirus transmitted by the bite of Culicoides paraensis, a hematophagous fly that circulates in the North and Northeast of Brazil. Like other arboviruses, including Zika and Chikungunya, OROV causes an exanthematic febrile illness associated with neurological complications in some of the infected patients. Although OROV has been shown to cross t…
Oropouche Orthobunyavirus (OROV) is an arbovirus associated with cases of febrile illness in the Amazon region. A high genetic diversity between orthobunyaviruses generated by genetic rearrangement or mutations makes the development of compounds with directly antiviral activity challenging, thus, host-targeted drugs looks a good alternative to develop antivirals against these pathogens. O…
Emerging viruses can cause great impacts on a susceptible population. A example of this are virus transmitted by arthropods which are widely spread in wild and urban areas, such as Oropouche Vírus (OROV). This is an emergent arbovirus that can be transmitted in urban environmental by the bite of Culicoides paraensis, a hematophagous fly that circulates in the North and Northeast of Brazil…
The Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an emerging arbovirus present in tropical and subtropical regions transmitted by the arthropod vector A. aegypti. Although CHIKV infection may be asymptomatic, it usually leads to the development of an acute febrile illness, joint pain and swelling. One of the major complications associated with CHIKV are chronic manifestations such as arthralgia and arthr…

Oropouche orthobunyavirus (OROV) is an emerging arbovirus that causes an exanthematous fever disease associated with neurological complications in some infected patients in the Amazon region from South American countries. Golden hamsters, newborns, and IRF5-/- infected animals are vulnerable and usually die from meningoencephalitis. Thus, since it has been shown that OROV can cross the bl…
The Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an emerging arbovirus present in tropical and subtropical regions. One of the major complications associated with CHIKV infection are chronic manifestations such as arthralgia and arthritis. The chronic disease resulting from CHIKV infection has similar characteristics to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in which dendritic cells (DCs) are implicated in the pathog…
The Oropouche virus (OROV) is an arbovirus with potential to cause epidemics in the most populated regions of Brazil. Individuals infected with OROV develop a febrile illness, which can progress to neurological and hemorrhagic complications. Furthermore, an increased incidence of abortion was reported during major OROV epidemics. However, the pathogenetic mechanisms associated with the he…
