Abstract Despite the devastating clinical outcome of the neurodegenerative disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), its etiology remains mysterious. Approximately 90% of ALS is characterized as sporadic, signifying that the patient has no family history of the disease.

Gene therapy in neuromuscular disorders
Monogenic neuromuscular disorders are potentially treatable through gene therapy. Using viral vectors, a therapeutic transgene aims to restore normal levels of a protein not produced by the defective gene, or to silence a gene whose expression leads to ...

The Analysis of Oral and Fecal Virome Detects Multiple Novel Emerging Viruses in Snakes
Wild animals are considered reservoirs for emerging and reemerging viruses, such as the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). Previous studies have reported that bats and ticks harbored variable important pathogenic viruses, some of which could cause potential diseases in humans and livestock, while viruses carried by ...

The Expression Strategy of Goose Parvovirus Exhibits Features of both the Dependovirus and Parvovirus Genera [PDF]
ABSTRACT The RNA transcription profile of the goose parvovirus (GPV) was determined, and it is a surprising hybrid of features of the Parvovirus and Dependovirus genera of the Parvovirinae subfamily of the Parvoviridae . Similar to the

Seroprevalence to adeno‐associated virus type 6 in people with hemophilia B from a UK adult cohort
Abstract Background Gene therapy shows promise as a potential “cure” for hemophilia A and B. Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors are the leading platform to deliver modified genetic code of factor VIII or IX to the liver effecting endogenous production. Patient exposure to wild‐type AAV leads to the formation of neutralizing factors, which can prevent

Detection and Genetic Analysis of Porcine Bocavirus in Different Swine Herds in North Central China
Porcine Bocavirus (PBoV) has been reported to be associated with postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome and pneumonia in pigs. In this study, a survey was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of PBoV in slaughter pigs, sick pigs, asymptomatic pigs and classical swine fever virus (CSFV) eradication plan herds in five provinces of China (Henan ...

A Comparative Analysis of the Structural Architecture of ssDNA Viruses
Virus assembly, utilizing a limited number of viral coat protein (CP or VP) building blocks, is an excellent example of a directed macromolecular interaction occurring in nature. Two basic principles govern the assembly of spherical (icosahedral) viruses: (i) Genetic Economy – the encapsidated genome encodes a single or few CPs that assemble a ...
