Modulation of cellular signaling by herpesvirus-encoded G protein-coupled receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
Human herpesviruses are widespread infectious pathogens that have been associated with proliferative and inflammatory diseases. During viral evolution, human herpesviruses have pirated genes encoding viral G protein-coupled receptors (vGPCRs), which are ...

Human cytomegalovirus Fcγ binding proteins gp34 and gp68 antagonize Fcγ receptors I, II and III. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) establishes lifelong infection with recurrent episodes of virus production and shedding despite the presence of adaptive immunological memory responses including HCMV immune immunoglobulin G (IgG).

Expression of the murine cytomegalovirus glycoprotein H by recombinant vaccinia virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The sequence of the gene encoding glycoprotein H (gH) of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) strain Smith was determined and compared with the sequence of the gH of MCMV strain K181. Transcriptional analysis showed that gH is encoded by a large mRNA of 5.0 kb,

The Natural Flavonoid Compound Deguelin Inhibits HCMV Lytic Replication within Fibroblasts

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous herpesvirus for which there is no vaccine or cure. This viral infection, once acquired, is life-long, residing latently in hematopoietic cells.

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...

MECHANISMS OF IMMUNOLOGICAL TOLERANCE DISRUPTION

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2016
Autoimmune diseases belong to disorders with an unclear etiology. The spectrum of autoimmune diseases is wide, the most well known of them are type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease ...

Large-Scale Screening of HCMV-Seropositive Blood Donors Indicates that HCMV Effectively Escapes from Antibodies by Cell-Associated Spread

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Immunoglobulins are only moderately effective for the treatment of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infections, possibly due to ineffectiveness against cell-associated virus spread.

A Focus on Natural Autophagy Modulators as Potential Host‐Directed Weapons Against Emerging and Re‐Emerging Viruses

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

CD1d expression and invariant NKT cell responses in herpesvirus infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a highly conserved subset of unconventional T lymphocytes that express a canonical, semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and surface markers shared with the natural killer cell lineage.

Sustained gene expression in the retina by improved episomal vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Gene and cellular therapies are nowadays part of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of diverse pathologies. The drawbacks associated with gene therapy-low levels of transgene expression, vector loss during mitosis, and gene silencing-need to be ...
