Human herpesvirus-6 and human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-6, HHV-7)
Uirusu, 2010 human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is the major causative agent of exanthem subitum which is one of popular diseases in infant, and establishes latent infections in adults of more than 90%. Recently, the encephalitis caused by reactivated- HHV-6 has been shown in patients after transplantation.

The activation of KSHV lytic cycle blocks autophagy in PEL cells [PDF]
, 2015 This study confirms that autophagy is activated concomitantly with KSHV lytic cycle induction, and that autophagy inhibition by BECN1 knockdown reduces viral lytic gene expression.

Regulation of alphaherpesvirus infections by the ICP0 family of proteins [PDF]
, 2013 Immediate-early protein ICP0 of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is important for the regulation of lytic and latent viral infection. Like the related proteins expressed by other alphaherpesviruses, ICP0 has a zinc-stabilized RING finger domain that ...

Human herpesvirus-6 infection in liver transplantation [PDF]
, 2007 Rejection and infections are the two most common complications after liver transplantation. Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) belongs to the betaherpesviruses, together with its close relatives cytomegalovirus (CMV) and human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7).

Targeting of Prosurvival Pathways as Therapeutic Approaches against Primary Effusion Lymphomas: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
, 2015 Constitutively activated prosurvival pathways render cancer cells addicted to their effects. Consequently they turn out to be the Achilles’ heels whose inhibition can be exploited in anticancer therapy.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

The strong enhancer element in the immediate early region of the human cytomegalovirus genome [PDF]
, 1985 The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a member of the herpesvirus group, was found to possess a strong transcription enhancer in the immediate early gene region. Co-transfection of enhancerless SV40 DNA with randomly fragmented HCMV DNA yielded two SV40-

Epstein‐Barr Virus Expressed Long Non‐Coding RNA (lncBARTs) Regulate EBV Latent Genome Replication
Advanced Science, EarlyView.EBV produces abundant level of lncBARTs, which are essential for maintaining viral genome replication in EBV‐associated cancers. LncBARTs interact with a complex comprising BRD4, CTCF and viral protein EBNA1 at EBV oriP region. This interaction tethers oriP to host chromosomes, facilitating EBV episome replication.

EGR Proteins Mediate Interferon‐Independent Anti‐HSV‐1 Responses Through Viral and Host Targets
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Early antiviral responses are typically mediated by interferons. However, during HSV‐1 infection, host early growth response (Egr) genes, which are not interferon‐stimulated genes, are quickly induced by viral protein ICP0. EGR proteins, in turn, suppress viral lytic infection by activating viral latency‐associated (LAT) and host immune regulatory ...

Equine herpesvirus 1 bridles T lymphocytes to reach its target organs [PDF]
, 2019 Equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV1) replicates in the respiratory epithelium and disseminates through the body via a cell-associated viremia in leukocytes, despite the presence of neutralizing antibodies. "Hijacked" leukocytes, previously identified as monocytic
