Occurrence of Puma Lentivirus Infection in Cougars from Washington [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1997
Puma lentivirus (PLV) antibodies were detected in 13 (25%) of 52 serum samples obtained from cougars (Felis concolor) collected by hunters. The serum samples were collected from November 1993 through January 1994 from four specific regions throughout the state of Washington (USA), and included the Olympic Mountains, the Cascade Mountains, the Blue ...

Multiplex interrogation of the NK cell signalome reveals global downregulation of CD16 signaling during lentivirus infection through an IL-18/ADAM17-dependent mechanism.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
Despite their importance, natural killer (NK) cell responses are frequently dysfunctional during human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infections, even irrespective of antiretroviral therapies, with poorly ...

Lentivirus infection augments concurrent antigen‐induced arthritis [PDF]

Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1987
AbstractExperimental antigen–induced arthritis was compared in normal goats and goats infected with caprine arthritis‐encephalitis virus. Although acute arthritis was the same in infected and uninfected animals, the disease lasted 16 weeks longer in the caprine arthritis‐encephalitis virus–infected goats.

Use of recombinant lentivirus pseudotyped with vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein G for efficient generation of human anti-cancer chimeric T cells by transduction of human peripheral blood lymphocytes in vitro

Virology Journal, 2006
Background Genetic redirection of lymphocytes that have been genetically engineered to recognize antigens other than those originally programmed in their germlines is a potentially powerful tool for immunotherapy of cancers and potentially also of ...

Hepatitis B virus inhibition in mice by lentiviral vector mediated short hairpin RNA

BMC Gastroenterology, 2009
Background Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is an important cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The major challenges for current therapies are the low efficacy of current drugs and the occurrence of drug resistant HBV mutations. RNA

Investigation of the Seroprevalence of Lentivirus ovivismae and Lentivirus capartenc (Formerly Known as Maedi‐Visna and Caprine Arthritis‐Encephalitis Virus) Infections in Sheep and Goats in the Yozgat Region

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Background Lentivirus ovivismae and Lentivirus capartenc (formerly maedi‐visna and caprine arthritis‐encephalitis virus) are highly contagious, chronic viral infections that cause significant economic losses in small ruminant farming. This study aimed to

Peripheral neuropathy in lentivirus infection

AIDS, 2004
As distal sensory polyneuropathy (DSP) is a major neurological complication of HIV-1 infection, we investigated the extent of peripheral nervous system disease in animals infected with the lentivirus, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), because it causes neurological disease and immunosuppression in cats similar to HIV-1 in humans.After infection with

Development of recombinant capsid antigen/transmembrane epitope fusion proteins for serological diagnosis of animal lentivirus infections

, 2004
Among animal lentiviruses, Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), Equine infectious anaemia virus (EIAV) and Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are important pathogens associated with a variety of clinical pictures including immunodeficiency, anaemia ...

Clinical Aspects of Feline Retroviruses: A Review [PDF]

, 2012
Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) are retroviruses with global impact on the health of domestic cats. The two viruses differ in their potential to cause disease.

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...
