The proposal to elevate the biosafety level of the laboratory from BSL2 to BSL3 aims to expand research capacity, enabling the study of high-risk viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, Mpox, and H5N1, as well as facilitating preclinical trials and the development of antiviral therapies and vaccines. The expansion will also allow the use of advanced high-throughput screening technologies for new comp…
The Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is among the arboviruses with the highest autochthonous circulation in Brazil, alongside other arboviruses like Dengue (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV). Globally, CHIKV epidemics have displayed a cyclical pattern characterized by remote outbreaks interspersed with periods of epidemiological silence, varying from years to decades. According to current surveys cond…
Zika fever and other arboviral diseases present an urgent need for the development of effective treatments and prophylactic strategies, due to the rapid and often silent transmission of these infections. Although typically self-limiting with symptoms such as mild fever, joint and muscle pain, skin rashes, and conjunctivitis, Zika virus (ZIKV) infection can lead to serious neurological com…
COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2), an emerging beta coronavirus that continues to pose a threat to human health, has led to a dramatic global crisis and presents unprecedented challenges in the daily lives of everyone, social aspects, political matters, and health measures. The most common modes of SARS-CoV-2 transmission include di…
The Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arbovirus primarily transmitted through the bite of mosquitoes from the Aedes genus, such as Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. It was first identified in monkeys in the Zika Forest in Uganda in 1947 and was subsequently found in humans in several countries in Africa and Asia. However, it gained worldwide attention due to its rapid spread in the Americas start…
The Chikungunya virus is a small, enveloped virus, approximately 70 nm in diameter and its genome is approximately 11,800 nucleotides, constituents of a single-stranded RNA of positive polarity, with a 5'-methyl-7-methylguanosine cap and a tail of 32-poly-A. The genome contains two open reading frames (ORFs) separated by a non-coding emotion. Four non-essential proteins (nsP1, 2, 3 and 4)…

Persisting human pandemics, emerging and re-emerging viruses, and evolution of drug-resistant strains impose continuous search for new antiviral drugs. Zika and Dengue infections are important diseases in the world and its incidence is increasing. Those epidemics impose high costs to health services, to families and to the economic systems of affected countries, including Brazil. Peptides…
