The HCMV‐encoded miR‐UL36‐3p promotes angiogenesis of endothelial cells by downregulating FOXO3
This illustration shows the role of hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p in endothelial cell angiogenesis. During productive infection, endothelial cells express HCMV‐encoded miRNAs. Viral hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p promotes endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and capillary tube formation by directly targeting and downregulating FOXO3. The pro‐angiogenic activity of hcmv‐miR‐

Memory NK cell features exploitable in anticancer immunotherapy [PDF]
Besides their innate ability to rapidly produce effector cytokines and kill virus-infected or transformed cells, natural killer (NK) cells display a strong capability to adapt to environmental modifications and to differentiate into long-lived ...

Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL82 Gene Product (pp71) Relieves hDaxx-Mediated Repression of HCMV Replication [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study examines the role of the cellular protein hDaxx in controlling human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) immediate-early (IE) gene expression and viral replication. Using permissive cell lines that either overexpress hDaxx or are depleted of hDaxx expression by the use of short hairpin RNA, we demonstrate that hDaxx functions as a ...

MORC3, a component of PML nuclear bodies, has a role in restricting herpes simplex virus type 1 and human cytomegalovirus [PDF]
We previously reported that MORC3, a protein associated with promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies (PML NBs), is a target of HSV-1 ICP0 mediated degradation.

The Core Histone-binding Region of the Murine Cytomegalovirus 89K Immediate Early Protein [PDF]
The gene regulatory immediate early protein, pp89, of murine cytomegalovirus interacts with both DNA-associated and isolated histones in vitro. We characterized the histone-binding region of pp89 and its cellular localization during cell division to ...

Abstract Hundreds of millions of people have one or more missing teeth. Consequently, a substantial number of patients undergo implant therapy each year. However, technical complications and soft tissue inflammation associated with the implant abutment or the type of restoration can lead to bone loss and, ultimately, implant failure.

Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV)-infected Astrocytoma Cells Impair the Function of HCMV-specific Cytotoxic T Cells [PDF]
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is associated with a poor prognosis and may affect the pathogenesis of GBM. In this study, we investigated the role of HCMV-infected astrocytoma cells in impairing the activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) specific to the HCMV protein.CTLs specific to HCMV immediate early (IE)-
