Prevalence of human herpesvirus 8 infection in systemic lupus erythematosus
Virology Journal, 2011 Background For decades, scientists have tried to understand the environmental factors involved in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), in which viral infections was included.

Late Cytomegalovirus Infections After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant
American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (ptCY) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis with letermovir have changed the clinical epidemiology of CMV infection. We studied the incidence, risk factors for, and outcomes of CMV infection after Day + 90 of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT ...

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 ...

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

Human herpesvirus 8 seropositivity among sexually active adults in Uganda.
PLoS ONE, 2011 IntroductionSexual transmission of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) has been implicated among homosexual men, but the evidence for sexual transmission among heterosexual individuals is controversial. We investigated the role of sexual transmission of HHV8 in a

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‐

What Makes an “Ideal” Cell Line for Recombinant Adeno‐Associated Virus Production?
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.Several host cell types have been used to produce rAAVs to date. Cell line‐specific traits that are beneficial in the context of rAAV manufacturing are reviewed here, with the goal of developing a consensus on the ‘ideal’ characteristics that an rAAV production host should possess (created with Biorender.com).

ORFeome-based arrays in eukaryotic expression vectors - a new approach to screen for the function of viral proteins [PDF]
, 2005 Since its first description in 1994 by Yuan Chang and Patrick Moore, Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) or Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) has emerged as a pathogen of international public health importance.
