In 1976, within a project on isolation of herpesviruses from small rodents in former Czechoslovakia, the mouse herpesvirus strain 68 (MHV-68) was isolated (Blaskovic et al., 1980). This virus was accepted by The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) as a new, so far unassigned species (member) of the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily of the ...

Endothelial Cells Support Persistent Gammaherpesvirus 68 Infection
A variety of human diseases are associated with gammaherpesviruses, including neoplasms of lymphocytes (e.g. Burkitt's lymphoma) and endothelial cells (e.g. Kaposi's sarcoma). Gammaherpesvirus infections usually result in either a productive lytic infection, characterized by expression of all viral genes and rapid cell lysis, or latent infection ...

Visualizing Induction of Lytic Gammaherpesvirus Infection [PDF]
EBV and KSHV both are associated with malignancies. In tumors the latent form of infection predominates and there is little or no expression of lytic genes. FIAU is a nucleoside analogue that is selectively phosphorylated by EBV and KSHV thymidine kinases. We have used a variety of pharmacologic agents to induce lytic infection in xenografts of Burkitt'

Gammaherpesviruses are DNA tumor viruses that establish lifelong latent infections in lymphocytes. For viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus and murine gammaherpesvirus 68, this is accomplished through a viral gene-expression program that promotes cellular ...

Prognostic factors in bushfire‐affected koalas–Kangaroo Island bushfire response 2020
This study presents a retrospective analysis of clinical records data from koalas presenting for treatment following the large‐scale bushfire event on Kangaroo Island 2019–2020. The aim of the study was to identify prognostic factors for koalas affected by bushfire. Koalas (n = 199) were grouped based on their burn status in combination with their burn

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

Role of the ubiquitin system and tumor viruses in AIDS-related cancer [PDF]
Tumor viruses are linked to approximately 20% of human malignancies worldwide. This review focuses on examples of human oncogenic viruses that manipulate the ubiquitin system in a subset of viral malignancies; those associated with AIDS.

KSHV vIL6 Inhibits Functional B Cell Maturation During De Novo Infection
ABSTRACT Despite causative links to lymphoproliferative disorders, little is known about early events governing KSHV infection in B lymphocytes. IL‐6 signaling plays a critical role in KSHV‐mediated disease, with human IL‐6 (hIL6) levels correlating with viral load and disease progression.

Targeting of Prosurvival Pathways as Therapeutic Approaches against Primary Effusion Lymphomas: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
Constitutively activated prosurvival pathways render cancer cells addicted to their effects. Consequently they turn out to be the Achilles’ heels whose inhibition can be exploited in anticancer therapy.

PARP1 Inhibition Halts EBV+ Lymphoma Progression by Disrupting the EBNA2/MYC Axis
ABSTRACT PARP1 has been shown to regulate EBV latency. However, the therapeutic effect of PARP1 inhibitors on EBV+ lymphomagenesis has not yet been explored. Here, we show that PARPi BMN 673 has a potent antitumor effect on EBV‐driven LCL in a mouse xenograft model. We found that PARP1 inhibition induces a dramatic transcriptional reprogramming of LCLs
