Impact of BoLA-DRB3 Polymorphisms on Clonality of Bovine Leukaemia Virus-Infected Cells of Cattle With Lymphoma. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infects cattle, integrates into the host genome as a provirus, and induces a persistent infection that remains asymptomatic but can cause leukaemia/lymphoma. Most BLV‐infected cell clones are created by massive depletion, and a few of these infected cell clones expand through the mitotic cycle, leading to the onset

Abstract Mammalian endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are ancient retroviruses that have been integrated into genomes. ERVs were believed to be inactive until the discovery of ERV transcription in the mouse genome. However, the transcription level and function of ERV elements in mammalian genomes are not well understood.

CAR‐NK cells: the next wave of cellular therapy for cancer
NK cells can be derived from various sources (PB, UCB, HSC, iPSC, NK cell lines) and can be engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) to target various surface antigens on cancer cells. These CAR‐NK cells can be used as off‐the‐shelf adoptive cellular therapy to treat patients with various malignancies.

The aim of this study was to better understand the sequence characteristics and immune responses in avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV‐J) infected yellow chicken flocks in South China. We isolated four strains of ALV‐J virus from these flocks, which were then identified by several methods, including subtype‐specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR ...

Interplay between the alpharetroviral Gag protein and SR proteins SF2 and SC35 in the nucleus [PDF]
Retroviruses are positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that reverse transcribe their RNA genomes into double-stranded DNA for integration into the host cell chromosome.
