Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus oncoprotein K13 protects against B cell receptor induced growth arrest and apoptosis through NF-κB activation [PDF]

, 2013
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) has been linked to the development of Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphoma and multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD). We have characterized the role of KSHV-encoded viral FLICE inhibitory protein K13

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

Primary replication and invasion of the bovine gammaherpesvirus BoHV-4 in the genital mucosae [PDF]

, 2017
Bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a gammaherpesvirus that is widespread in cattle. Ex vivo models with bovine genital tract mucosa explants were set up to study molecular/cellular BoHV-4-host interactions.

The HCMV‐encoded miR‐UL36‐3p promotes angiogenesis of endothelial cells by downregulating FOXO3

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This illustration shows the role of hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p in endothelial cell angiogenesis. During productive infection, endothelial cells express HCMV‐encoded miRNAs. Viral hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p promotes endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and capillary tube formation by directly targeting and downregulating FOXO3. The pro‐angiogenic activity of hcmv‐miR‐

A Mechanistic Model of rAAV Production in Synthetic Cell Lines

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recombinant adeno‐associated virus (rAAV) is a widely used vector for gene therapy. Its manufacturing faces significant challenges in producing the large quantities of vectors needed for clinical applications and reducing empty particles.

Novel Human Herpesvirus 8 Subtype D Strains in Vanuatu, Melanesia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
We show human herpesvirus 8 with diverse molecular subtype D variants to be highly endemic among the Ni-Vanuatu population. Most K1 genes were nearly identical to Polynesian strains, although a few clustered with Australian or Taiwanese strains.

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders in neuronal xenotransplanted macaques [PDF]

, 2016
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid proliferations that occur in the setting of depressed T-cell function due to immunosuppressive therapy used following solid organ transplantation, hematopoietic ...

Can epilepsy be predicted after the first febrile seizure? Insights from machine learning of postictal EEG

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizures in childhood, yet identifying children at risk of developing epilepsy after the first FS remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms applied to post‐febrile seizure electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.
