Targeting Host Cellular Factors as a Strategy of Therapeutic Intervention for Herpesvirus Infections
Herpesviruses utilize various host factors to establish latent infection, survival, and spread disease in the host. These factors include host cellular machinery, host proteins, gene expression, multiple transcription factors, cellular signal pathways ...

Partial characterisation of pilchard herpesvirus and the associated disease in pilchards [PDF]
In 1995 and again in 1998, millions of pilchards (Sardinops sagax neopilchardus) were found dead or dying off the coast of Australia and also in New Zealand. The epizootics moved progressively, at a rapid speed against the prevailing currents.

Dominant-Negative Proteins in Herpesviruses - From Assigning Gene Function to Intracellular Immunization [PDF]
Investigating and assigning gene functions of herpesviruses is a process, which profits from consistent technical innovation. Cloning of bacterial artificial chromosomes encoding herpesvirus genomes permits nearly unlimited possibilities in the ...

Enhancing Adeno‐Associated Virus 2 Capsid Engineering Through Co‐Evolutionary Coupling
ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) has emerged as a leading platform for gene therapy. However, to unlock the full potential, their manufacturing yields, stability, and efficacy must all be improved. Rational design is limited by poor predictability and the potential impact of mutations on multiple important vector properties.

Bovine Papillomatosis Hiding a Zoonotic Infection: Epitheliotropic Viruses in Bovine Skin Lesions
We describe two cases of skin co-infections with epitheliotropic viruses, detected in two cattle during lumpy skin disease (LSD) surveillance in northern Italy.

Abstract Natural killer (NK) cell neoplasms span indolent to highly aggressive entities, and flow cytometric immunophenotyping is central to their detection and classification. However, distinguishing reactive from neoplastic NK cell expansions can be challenging because NK cells lack somatically recombined antigen receptors, and reactive states may ...

Viral Infections in Burn Patients: A State-Of-The-Art Review
Infections that are triggered by the accompanying immunosuppression in patients with burn wounds are very common regardless of age. Among burn patients, the most frequently diagnosed infections include the bacterial ones primarily caused by Pseudomonas ...

The HHV-6A Proteins U20 and U21 Target NKG2D Ligands to Escape Immune Recognition
The coevolution of the human immune system and herpesviruses led to the emergence and diversification of both cellular danger molecules recognized by immune cells on the one hand and viral countermeasures that prevent the expression of these proteins on ...

A beta-herpesvirus with fluorescent capsids to study transport in living cells. [PDF]
Fluorescent tagging of viral particles by genetic means enables the study of virus dynamics in living cells. However, the study of beta-herpesvirus entry and morphogenesis by this method is currently limited.

Diagnostic Usefulness of Cell Block Samples in Fluid Overload‐Associated Large B‐Cell Lymphoma
ABSTRACT Fluid overload‐associated B‐cell lymphoma (FO‐LBCL) is a B‐cell neoplasm that presents as serous effusions without detectable tumor masses and Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) infection. Here, we report a case of an 81‐year‐old female patient with FO‐LBCL (Stage IVA) who presented with pericardial and ...
