Herpes simplex virus‐1 infection alters microtubule‐associated protein Tau splicing and promotes Tau pathology in neural models of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
HSV‐1 infection alters MAPT splicing and promotes Tau pathology in neural models of Alzheimer's disease. HSV‐1 infection in brain organoids and neuronal models increase 4R‐MAPT splicing and Tau hyperphosphorylation. HSV‐1 ICP27 is both necessary and sufficient for inducing these changes highlighting the potential role of HSV‐1 in Alzheimer's disease ...

Human Herpesvirus 8--the First Human Rhadinovirus

open access: yesJNCI Monographs, 1998
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus, also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), is the first known human member of the genus Rhadinovirus. It is regularly found by polymerase chain reaction in all forms of KS, in certain types of Castleman's disease, and in body cavity-based B-cell lymphoma.

A 37‐Year Retrospective Analysis Reveals a High Rate of Cutaneous Angiosarcoma of the Scalp in Okinawa, Japan

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 1059-1067, April 2025.
A 37‐year retrospective analysis has revealed an exceptionally high rate of angiosarcoma of the scalp in Okinawa, Japan. This study represents the first identification of Okinawa as a hotspot for this rare cancer, the epidemiology of which has been insufficiently studied.

Statistical properties of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures in viral genomes

open access: yes, 2008
By performing a comprehensive study on 1832 segments of 1212 complete genomes of viruses, we show that in viral genomes the hairpin structures of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures are more abundant than expected under a simple random ...

Oxidative stress biomarkers are associated with visible clinical signs of a disease in frigatebird nestlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Infectious diseases are one of the most common threats for both domestic and wild animals, but little is known about the effects on the physiological condition and survival of wild animals.

T cells from newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis patients have enhanced responsiveness to CD46 activation

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Neuroimmunology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the responsiveness of T cells from newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis (MS) patients to CD46 co‐stimulation, a membrane co‐factor protein potentially involved in MS pathogenesis. Methods T cells from MS patients and non‐diseased symptomatic controls (SC) were activated in vitro with or without αCD46 antibody co‐stimulation.

The S‐Phase Arrest of Host Cells Caused by an Alpha‐Herpesvirus Genome Replication Facilitates Viral Recruitment of RNA Polymerase II to Transcribe Viral Genes

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Viral infection arrests host cells in the S phase, which promotes vDNA synthesis and vRC formation, further facilitating viral recruitment of RNA Pol II to preferentially transcribe viral genes. ABSTRACT Herpesviruses rely on host RNA polymerae II (RNA Pol II) for their mRNA transcription, yet the mechanisms of which has been poorly defined, while ...
