Tumor cell marker PVRL4 (nectin 4) is an epithelial cell receptor for measles virus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Vaccine and laboratory adapted strains of measles virus can use CD46 as a receptor to infect many human cell lines. However, wild type isolates of measles virus cannot use CD46, and they infect activated lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and macrophages via ...

Measles Rash Identification Using Residual Deep Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]

open access: yes2021 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data), 2020
Measles is extremely contagious and is one of the leading causes of vaccine-preventable illness and death in developing countries, claiming more than 100,000 lives each year. Measles was declared eliminated in the US in 2000 due to decades of successful vaccination for the measles.
