An alphaherpesvirus exploits antimicrobial beta-defensins to initiate respiratory tract infection [PDF]
, 2020 beta-Defensins protect the respiratory tract against the myriad of microbial pathogens entering the airways with each breath. However, this potentially hostile environment is known to serve as a portal of entry for herpesviruses.

Multiple sclerosis, human herpesvirus 4 and thyroid collision tumor: A case report
Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2020 The role of interferon β-1b (IFNβ-1b), used for multiple sclerosis (MS) therapy, in cancer occurrence is uncertain. There is evidence supporting the role of human herpesvirus 4 [Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)] in thyroid cancer and MS. Simultaneous occurrence of papillary and medullary carcinomas is rare, and its association with MS in a young woman raises ...

Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus (Human Herpesvirus 8) Open Reading Frame 4 Protein (Kaposica) Is a Functional Homolog of Complement Control Proteins [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2003 ABSTRACTThe genome analysis of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has revealed the presence of an open reading frame (ORF 4) with sequence homology to complement control proteins. To assign a function to this protein, we have now expressed this ORF using thePichiaexpression system and shown that the purified protein inhibited human ...
