Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus oncoprotein K13 protects against B cell receptor induced growth arrest and apoptosis through NF-κB activation [PDF]

, 2013
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has been linked to the development of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). We have characterized the role of KSHV-encoded viral FLICE inhibitory protein K13

Cytomegalovirus infection is common in prostate cancer and antiviral therapies inhibit progression in disease models

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Human cytomegalovirus infection is common in normal prostate epithelium, prostate tumor tissue, and prostate cancer cell lines. CMV promotes cell survival, proliferation, and androgen receptor signaling. Anti‐CMV pharmaceutical compounds in clinical use inhibited cell expansion in prostate cancer models in vitro and in vivo, motivating investigation ...

Robust Statistical Approach for Extraction of Moving Human Silhouettes from Videos [PDF]

International Journal on Information Theory (IJIT), Vol.3, No.3, July 2014, Pg.55-64, 2014
Human pose estimation is one of the key problems in computer vision that has been studied in the recent years. The significance of human pose estimation is in the higher level tasks of understanding human actions applications such as recognition of anomalous actions present in videos and many other related applications. The human poses can be estimated

Genomic and biologic comparisons of cyprinid herpesvirus 3 strains [PDF]

, 2018
Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) is the archetypal fish alloherpesvirus and the etiologic agent of a lethal disease in common and koi carp. To date, the genome sequences of only four CyHV-3 isolates have been published, but no comparisons of the biologic ...

Structure and Antigenicity of Kaposi's Sarcoma‐Associated Herpesvirus Glycoprotein B

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Kaposi's sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV) causes severe cancers without effective treatments. This study presents an atomic model of KSHV's critical infection protein, gB, revealing a unique structure shared with related herpesviruses like Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV). The structural similarity highlights vulnerable targets for antibodies, guiding the

Use of Staged Molecular Analysis to Determine Causes of Unexplained Central Nervous System Infections

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
No agent is implicated in most central nervous system (CNS) infections. To investigate cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with CNS infections of unknown cause in 1 hospital in Taiwan, we used a staged molecular approach, incorporating techniques ...

Troubles and Failures in Interactional Language. Towards a Linguistically Informed Taxonomy [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The goal of this talk is to introduce a systematic research agenda which aims to understand the nature of interaction between humans and artificial conversational agents (CA) (henceforth humanmachine interaction, HMI). Specifically, we shall take an explicit linguistic perspective focusing on linguistically defined variables that are known to influence

Comparative analysis of transposed element insertion within human and mouse genomes reveals Alu's unique role in shaping the human transcriptome [PDF]

Genome Biology 2007, 8:R127, 2008
Background: Transposed elements (TEs) have a substantial impact on mammalian evolution and are involved in numerous genetic diseases. We compared the impact of TEs on the human transcriptome and the mouse transcriptome. Results: We compiled a dataset of all TEs in the human and mouse genomes, identifying 3,932,058 and 3,122,416 TEs, respectively.
