| Abstract | Background Dengue virus (DENV) causes the most significant mosquito-borne viral disease with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestation, including neurological symptoms associated with lethal dengue diseases. Dopamine receptors are expressed in central nervous system, and dopamine antagonists have been reported to exhibit antiviral activity against DENV infection in vivo and in vitro. Although identification of host-cell receptor is critical to understand dengue neuropathogenesis and neurotropism, the involvement of dopamine receptors in DENV infection remains unclear. Results We exploited the sensitivity and precision of force spectroscopy to address whether dopamine type-2 receptors (D2R) directly interact with DENV particles at the first step of infection. Using optical tweezers, we quantified and characterized DENV binding to D2R expressed on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Our finding suggested that the binding was D2R- and DENV-dependent, and that the binding force was in the range of 50–60 pN. We showed that dopamine antagonists prochlorperazine (PCZ) and trifluoperazine (TFP), previously reported to inhibit dengue infection, interrupt the DENV-D2R specific binding. Conclusions This study demonstrates that D2R could specifically recognize DENV particles and function as an attachment factor on cell surfaces for DENV. We propose D2R as a host receptor for DENV and as a potential therapeutic target for anti-DENV drugs. Graphical abstract |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
