Bovine herpesvirus 4 based vector as a potential oncolytic-virus for treatment of glioma
The application of gene therapy for malignant gliomas is still under study and the use of specific vectors represents an important contribution. Here, we investigated bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4), which is non-pathogenic if injected into the rodent ...

The transportation of livestock poses an increased risk of disease transmission, with transportation vehicles acting as vectors for disease. Biosecurity management within the livestock industry is therefore critical to reduce the risk of disease transmission. This study investigated the current biosecurity practices of stakeholders within the livestock

ORFeome-based arrays in eukaryotic expression vectors - a new approach to screen for the function of viral proteins [PDF]
Since its first description in 1994 by Yuan Chang and Patrick Moore, Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) or Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) has emerged as a pathogen of international public health importance.

Emerging Paediatric Uses of Dupilumab Beyond Approvals
Dupilumab, through IL‐4Rα blockade, shows promising efficacy beyond approved indications in paediatric diseases driven by T2 inflammation. Emerging evidence—mainly from small studies—supports improvements in disease severity and quality of life, highlighting its potential as a targeted, steroid‐sparing therapy while underscoring the need for ...

Cytomegalovirus replicon-based regulation of gene expression in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
There is increasing evidence for a connection between DNA replication and the expression of adjacent genes. Therefore, this study addressed the question of whether a herpesvirus origin of replication can be used to activate or increase the expression of ...

Multifocal Epithelioid Hemangioma With FOSB Overexpression
ABSTRACT Epithelioid hemangioma (EH) is a benign vascular tumor that most commonly arises on the skin but may also occur in other anatomical locations, including deep soft tissue, bone, visceral organs, penis, and mucosal sites. A hallmark of EH is overexpression of FOS and FOSB, often resulting from various gene fusions.

Proteomic analysis of pathogenic and attenuated alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 [PDF]
The gammaherpesvirus alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) causes malignant catarrhal fever in susceptible ungulates but infects its natural host, wildebeest, without obvious clinical signs.

Clinical and genetic characterization of intellectual disability
This study examines the etiological factors and comorbidities in a large cohort of Finnish patients with intellectual disability. Genetic causes—including chromosomal abnormalities and pathogenic gene variants—were more frequently identified in individuals with moderate to profound intellectual disability.

Short communication: NKG2C+ NK cells contribute to increases in CD16+CD56- cells in HIV type 1+ individuals with high plasma viral load. [PDF]
Chronic HIV-1 infection results in the expansion of both NKG2C+ and CD16+CD56- human natural killer cells. NKG2C+ cells proliferate in response to human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and expansion of the dysfunctional CD56-CD16+ natural killer (NK) cells is ...
