Zoonotic viruses rank among the greatest threats to public health, with urbanization and global warming accelerating their emergence and spread. As the risk of future pandemics grows, innovative tools are needed to deepen our understanding of viral pathogenesis and enhance pandemic preparedness. Nonviral protein cages provide a versatile platform for studying viral mechanisms, virus-host interactions, and designing next-generation therapeutic approaches, making them powerful assets in the fight against viral threats.
人畜共患病毒是对公众健康的最大威胁之一，城市化和全球变暖加速了它们的出现和传播。随着未来大流行风险的增加，需要创新工具来加深我们对病毒发病机制的理解并加强大流行防范。非病毒蛋白笼为研究病毒机制、病毒与宿主的相互作用以及设计下一代治疗方法提供了一个多功能平台，使其成为应对病毒威胁的有力资产。
