Coronaviruses can cause serious respiratory tract infections and may also impact other end organs such as the central nervous system, the lung and the heart. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a devastating impact on humanity. Understanding the mechanisms that contribute to the pathogenesis of coronavirus infections, will set the found...

Natural compounds isolated from different medicinal plants remain one of the major resources of anticancer drugs due to their enormous chemical diversity. Studies suggested therapeutic potential for various tanshinones, key bioactive lipophilic compounds from the root extracts of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, against multiple cancers including breast...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear oncoprotein EBNA3C is essential for B-cell transformation and development of several B-cell lymphomas particularly those are generated in an immuno-compromised background. EBNA3C recruits ubiquitin-proteasome machinery for deregulating multiple cellular oncoproteins and tumor suppressor proteins. Although EBNA3C is...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) oncoprotein EBNA3C is indispensable for primary B-cell transformation and maintenance of lymphoblastoid cells outgrowth. EBNA3C usurps two putative cellular pathways—cell-cycle and apoptosis, essentially through modulating ubiquitin-mediated protein-degradation or gene transcription. In cancer cells, these two pathways are...
