Abstract Background Coronaviruses (CoVs) primarily cause enzootic infections in birds and
mammals but, in the last few decades, have shown to be capable of infecting humans as …

The outbreak of a novel coronavirus associated with acute respiratory disease, called
COVID‐19, marked the introduction of the third spillover of an animal coronavirus (CoV) to …

Rotavirus infections are a leading cause of severe, dehydrating gastroenteritis in children< 5
years of age. Despite the global introduction of vaccinations for rotavirus over a decade ago …

The COVID‐19 epidemic is one of the most influential epidemics in history. Understanding
the impact of coronaviruses (CoVs) on host cells is very important for disease treatment. The …

Ca2+ is essential for virus entry, viral gene replication, virion maturation, and release. The
alteration of host cells Ca2+ homeostasis is one of the strategies that viruses use to …

Viroporins are indispensable for viral replication. As intracellular ion channels they disturb
pH gradients of organelles and allow Ca 2+ flux across ER membranes. Viroporins interact …

Electronic skins (e-skins) are flexible electronic devices that emulate properties of human
skin, such as high stretchability and toughness, perception of stimuli, and self-healing …

Several recent studies have provided evidence that use of calcium channel blockers
(CCBs), especially amlodipine and nifedipine, can reduce mortality from coronavirus …

Viral infections are one of the leading causes of human illness. Viruses take over host cell
signaling cascades for their replication and infection. Calcium (Ca 2+) is a versatile and …

In this review, we describe the key molecular entities involved in the process of infection by
SARS-CoV-2, while also detailing how those key entities influence the spread of the …
