Combining oncolytic viruses with anti‐checkpoint antibodies such as anti‐PD‐1, anti‐PDL‐1, and anti‐CTLA4 or CAR‐T cells can be effective in cancer therapy in a synergistic fashion. Oncolytic virotherapy induces the expression of PD‐1 and PDL‐1 in the tumor microenvironment components. Virotherapy promotes the infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells into

Interplay between virus-specific effector response and Foxp3 regulatory T cells in measles virus immunopathogenesis. [PDF]
Measles is a highly contagious childhood disease associated with an immunological paradox: although a strong virus-specific immune response results in virus clearance and the establishment of a life-long immunity, measles infection is followed by an ...

Measles-induced immune amnesia and its effects in concurrent epidemics [PDF]
It has been recently discovered that the measles virus can wipe out the adaptive immune system, destroying B lymphocytes and reducing the diversity of non-specific B cells of the infected host. In particular, this implies that previously acquired immunization from vaccination or direct exposition to other pathogens could be erased in a phenomenon named

Ribonucleoprotein transport in Negative Strand RNA viruses
The genome replication of Negative‐sense, single‐stranded RNA viruses most‐often segregate in membrane‐less environments called inclusion bodies (IBs). These “organelles” usually locate far from the cell surface from where new virions are released. Here, for each viral family, we discuss how the genome progeny is transported from the IBs to reach the ...

Measles vaccination and antibody response in autism spectrum disorder [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that measles vaccination was involved in the pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) as evidenced by signs of a persistent measles infection or abnormally persistent immune response shown by circulating measles ...

Following in the footsteps of smallpox: can we achieve the global eradication of measles? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Although an effective measles vaccine has been available for almost 40 years, in 2000 there were about 30 million measles infections worldwide and 777,000 measles-related deaths.
