KSHV reactivation from latency requires Pim-1 and Pim-3 kinases to inactivate the latency-associated nuclear antigen LANA.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
Host signal-transduction pathways are intimately involved in the switch between latency and productive infection of herpes viruses. As with other herpes viruses, infection by Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) displays these two phases.

Epitranscriptomic m6A modifications during reactivation of HIV-1 latency in CD4+ T cells

open access: yesmBio
Despite effective antiretroviral therapy reducing HIV-1 viral loads to undetectable levels, the presence of latently infected CD4+ T cells poses a major barrier to HIV-1 cure.

Inhibition of ALKBH5 demethylase of m6A pathway potentiates HIV-1 reactivation from latency [PDF]

open access: yesVirology Journal
Background Current latency-reversing agents (LRAs) employed in the “shock-and-kill” strategy primarily focus on relieving epigenetic and transcriptional blocks to reactivate the latent HIV-1.

Regulation of KSHV Latency and Lytic Reactivation

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is associated with three malignancies— Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and multicentric Castleman’s disease (MCD). Central to the pathogenesis of these diseases is the KSHV viral life

Varicella-Zoster viruses associated with post-herpetic neuralgia induce sodium current density increases in the ND7-23 Nav-1.8 neuroblastoma cell line [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most significant complication of herpes zoster caused by reactivation of latent Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV). We undertook a heterologous infection in vitro study to determine whether PHN-associated VZV isolates ...

Synergistic Chromatin-Modifying Treatments Reactivate Latent HIV and Decrease Migration of Multiple Host-Cell Types

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Upon infection of its host cell, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) establishes a quiescent and non-productive state capable of spontaneous reactivation.

Human Cytomegalovirus US28 Ligand Binding Activity Is Required for Latency in CD34+ Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells and Humanized NSG Mice

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection of CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (CD34+ HPCs) provides a critical reservoir of virus in stem cell transplant patients, and viral reactivation remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality.

De Novo synthesis of VP16 coordinates the exit from HSV latency in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The mechanism controlling the exit from herpes simplex virus latency (HSV) is of central importance to recurrent disease and transmission of infection, yet interactions between host and viral functions that govern this process remain unclear. The cascade

An investigation of herpes simplex virus promoter activity compatible with latency establishment reveals VP16-independent activation of immediate-early promoters in sensory neurones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) type-1 establishes lifelong latency in sensory neurones and it is widely assumed that latency is the consequence of a failure to initiate virus immediate-early (IE) gene expression. However, using a Ore reporter mouse system in
