Evaluation of bovine leukaemia virus infection control measures in Japanese Black beef cattle breeding farms: A 7‐year longitudinal study based on proviral load

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Background Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infection remains a major problem for Japanese Black (Wagyu) cattle, and effective and sustainable control measures are essential to prevent its spread in breeding herds. This study aimed to monitor the BLV infection status of all cattle at a Japanese Black breeding farm in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan ...

Rhesus blood group haplotype determination by nanopore sequencing and adaptive sampling enables the precise determination of complex allele combinations that could not be accurately determined by standard methods

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 1058-1069, June 2026.
Abstract Background Patients with chronic transfusion needs such as those with sickle cell disease face a high risk of developing antibodies against high‐prevalence antigens in the RH blood group system, complicating transfusion therapy and potentially necessitating stem cell transplantation.

An in‐house nucleic acid test for detection of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in whole blood donor samples

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 1122-1129, June 2026.
Abstract Background Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick‐borne pathogen that causes anaplasmosis. Increased incidences of this disease in Canada and cases of transfusion‐transmitted anaplasmosis in the United States have been reported. Currently, there are no Health Canada licensed methodologies available for detection of A.

Re‐entry of donors deferred for false‐reactive screening tests in Canada: 10 years post implementation

Vox Sanguinis, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 779-788, June 2026.
Abstract Background and Objectives Canadian Blood Services implemented a re‐entry programme in 2014. Donors deferred because of false‐reactive or indeterminate screening tests can provide a specimen for re‐entry testing 6 months after their initial test, and resume donating if they test negative for all infectious markers.

IL28B gene polymorphism SNP rs8099917 genotype GG is associated with HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) in HTLV-1 carriers.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BackgroundThe polymorphisms of IL28B have been described as important in the pathogenesis of infections caused by some viruses. The aim of this research was to evaluate whether IL28B gene polymorphisms (SNP rs8099917 and SNP rs12979860) are associated ...

Restriction factors in human retrovirus infections and the unprecedented case of CIITA as link of intrinsic and adaptive immunity against HTLV-1

Retrovirology, 2019
Background Immunity against pathogens evolved through complex mechanisms that only for sake of simplicity are defined as innate immunity and adaptive immunity. Indeed innate and adaptive immunity are strongly intertwined each other during evolution.
