A spliced latency-associated VZV transcript maps antisense to the viral transactivator gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV), an alphaherpesvirus, establishes lifelong latent infection in the neurons of >90% humans worldwide, reactivating in one-third to cause shingles, debilitating pain and stroke. How VZV maintains latency remains unclear.

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.

Varicellovirus UL 49.5 proteins differentially affect the function of the transporter associated with antigen processing, TAP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes play an important role in the protection against viral infections, which they detect through the recognition of virus-derived peptides, presented in the context of MHC class I molecules at the surface of the infected cell.

Primary replication and invasion of the bovine gammaherpesvirus BoHV-4 in the genital mucosae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a gammaherpesvirus that is widespread in cattle. Ex vivo models with bovine genital tract mucosa explants were set up to study molecular/cellular BoHV-4-host interactions.

MORC3, a component of PML nuclear bodies, has a role in restricting herpes simplex virus type 1 and human cytomegalovirus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We previously reported that MORC3, a protein associated with promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML NBs), is a target of HSV-1 ICP0 mediated degradation.

Varicella‐Zoster Virus‐Specific Cell‐Mediated Immune Response Kinetics and Latent Viral Load Depending on Aging

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Herpes zoster (HZ), an infection caused by varicella‐zoster virus (VZV) reactivation, results from an age‐related decline in VZV‐specific cell‐mediated immunity (CMI). Digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) precisely quantifies latent VZV DNA in the blood, a potential biomarker of subclinical viral reactivation and its association with HZ risk.

Detection of five viruses commonly implicated with bovine respiratory disease using loop-mediated isothermal amplification

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly
Herein, we present novel quantitative loop-mediated isothermal amplification (qLAMP) and reverse-transcription qLAMP (RT-qLAMP) assays for the detection of five viruses implicated with the onset and progression of bovine respiratory disease (BRD): Bovine

First molecular detection and characterization of herpesvirus and poxvirus in a Pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus divergens) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND Herpesvirus and poxvirus can infect a wide range of species: herpesvirus genetic material has been detected and amplified in five species of the superfamily Pinnipedia; poxvirus genetic material, in eight species of Pinnipedia.

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Genetic and Biological Characteristics of Gruid Herpesvirus 1 Isolated From Wild Cranes Affected by Inclusion Body Disease of Cranes

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Inclusion body disease of cranes (IBDCs) is fatal in many cases and reportedly caused by a herpes‐like virus labeled as gruid herpesvirus 1 (GrHV‐1). Although GrHV‐1 has been isolated from IBDC‐affected cranes, it has not been genetically classified because its genome has not been partially or fully sequenced.
