The Importance of Being Non-Defective: A Mini Review Dedicated to the Memory of Jan Svoboda

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Jan Svoboda triggered investigations on non-defective avian sarcoma viruses. These viruses were a critical factor in the genetic understanding of retroviruses.

Plaque assay of avian sarcoma viruses using casein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1975
The caseinolytic activity of several strains of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), conditional and nonconditional mutants of RSV, and nontransforming avian leukosis viruses was investigated. Only those viruses capable of transforming chick fibroblasts in vitro induced lysis of casein incorporated into an agar overlay.

Synthesis of IFN-β by Virus-Infected Chicken Embryo Cells Demonstrated with Specific Antisera and a New Bioassay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Transcripts of interferon-α(IFN-α) and IFN-β genes are present in virus-infected chicken cells, but because of a lack of appropriate assays and reagents, it was unclear if biologically active IFN-β is secreted.

Proposal for Numbering Mutants of Avian Leukosis and Sarcoma Viruses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1974
A system for the numbering of mutants of avian sarcoma and leukosis viruses is proposed.

Cell Transformation by RNA Viruses: An Overview

open access: yesViruses, 2011
Studies of oncogenic viruses have made seminal contributions to the molecular biology of cancer. Key discoveries include the identification of viral oncogenes and cellular proto-oncogenes, elucidation of signal transduction pathways, and identification ...

Multifunctional miR-155 Pathway in Avian Oncogenic Virus-Induced Neoplastic Diseases

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA, 2019
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that fine-tune the responses of the cell by modulating the cell transcriptome and gene expression. MicroRNA 155 (miR-155) is a conserved multifunctional miRNA involved in multiple roles including the modulation

Domestic chickens activate a piRNA defense against avian leukosis virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) protect the germ line by targeting transposable elements (TEs) through the base-pair complementarity. We do not know how piRNAs co-evolve with TEs in chickens.

Viruses and the cellular RNA decay machinery. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ability to control cellular and viral gene expression, either globally or selectively, is central to a successful viral infection, and it is also crucial for the host to respond and eradicate pathogens.

Chickens Expressing IFIT5 Ameliorate Clinical Outcome and Pathology of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza and Velogenic Newcastle Disease Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Innate antiviral immunity establishes first line of defense against invading pathogens through sensing their molecular structures such as viral RNA. This antiviral potential of innate immunity is mainly attributed to a myriad of IFN-stimulated genes ...

Cytokines of Birds: Conserved Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Targeted disruptions of the mouse genes for cytokines, cytokine receptors, or components of cytokine signaling cascades convincingly revealed the important roles of these molecules in immunologic processes. Cytokines are used at present as drugs to fight
