Killing of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected fibroblasts during latent infection by activated natural killer cells. [PDF]
, 2011 Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes life-long infection by evading clearance by the host immune system. In de novo infection and lytic replication, KSHV escapes cytotoxic T cells and NK cells through downregulation of MHC class-I ...

Epidemiology and fitness effects of wood mouse herpesvirus in a natural host population [PDF]
, 2012 Rodent gammaherpesviruses have become important models for understanding human herpesvirus diseases. In particular, interactions between murid herpesvirus 4 and Mus musculus (a non-natural host species) have been extensively studied under controlled ...

The ubiquitin system in normal and infected germinal center B cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The ubiquitin system plays a central role in germinal center (GC) B cells, influencing differentiation to long‐lived memory B cells. Oncogenic gammaherpesviruses gain access to memory B cells by establishing latency in GC B cells. Mapping ubiquitin mechanisms in normal and infected GC B cells will define specific molecular circuits in B cells germane ...

リンパ増殖性疾患とHuman herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6)の関連性のPCR法による検討（第1報）
, 1991 Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6)は1986年に新たに発見されたウイルスであり様々な疾患との関連性が示唆されている。HHV-6とリンパ増殖性疾患との関連性を検討するために、このウイルスDNAに特異的なプライマーを作製し、それを用いたPCR法で、患者より採取した末梢血およびリンパ組織中のHHV-6ゲノムの検出を行った。 8名の健常人、40例のリンパ増殖性疾患、1例の慢性骨髄性白血病について検討したが、今回施行した49検体では、HHV-6は検出されず、HHV ...

The RING-CH ligase K5 antagonizes restriction of KSHV and HIV-1 particle release by mediating ubiquitin-dependent endosomal degradation of tetherin [PDF]
, 2010 Tetherin (CD317/BST2) is an interferon-induced membrane protein that inhibits the release of diverse enveloped viral particles. Several mammalian viruses have evolved countermeasures that inactivate tetherin, with the prototype being the HIV-1 Vpu ...
