Detection of molluscum contagiosum virus DNA by in situ hybridization

Pathology, 1990
Three in situ hybridization protocols have been modified and used to comparatively examine formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue for the presence of molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) DNA. Two cloned MCV 1 DNA fragments, MCV-1-B-D1 and MCV-1-B-F, were labelled with 32P-dCTP or digoxigenin-11-dUTP and used under conditions of high stringency to detect

Molluscum Contagiosum Virus: Persistence Pays Off

Future Virology, 2013
The molluscum contagiosum (MC) virus (MCV) is a dermatotropic poxvirus, and the causative agent of MC. Unlike smallpox and human monkeypox diseases, MC is nonlethal, common and worldwide. Additionally, little inflammation is associated with MC papules, and MC can persist for months to years.

Molluscum contagiosum virus

Journal of Infection, 1997
Molluscum contagiosum is a benign skin tumour, caused by a poxvirus, that affects mostly children and young adults. It is a common, self-limiting viral disease of the skin and mucous membranes. Lz Initial descriptions of the lesion date from 1814, when it was defined as a separate entity to neurofibromatosis (molluscum fibrosum).

Molluscum contagiosum virus infection

The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2013
Molluscum contagiosum virus is an important human skin pathogen: it can cause disfigurement and suffering in children, in adults it is less common and often sexually transmitted. Extensive and persistent skin infection with the virus can indicate underlying immunodeficiency.

ELISA for Molluscum Contagiosum Virus

Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2017
AbstractMolluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) is a common skin pathogen of children and young adults. Infection with MCV causes benign skin tumors in children and young adults and is mostly self‐limiting. In contrast to orthopoxviruses, MCV infections tend to take a subacute clinical course but may persist for up to 12 months.

Molluscum contagiosum virus

1992
Molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) is a poxvirus that causes benign skin tumours in man, consisting of a localized mass of hypertrophied and hyperplastic epidermis due to enhanced basal cell division. The disease was first described in 1814 (Bateman, 1814).

Envelope and nucleoid ultrastructure of Molluscum contagiosum virus

Virology, 1977
The ultrastructure of the mature and immature poxvirus Molluscum contagiosum has been examined by electron microscopy. With freeze-fracturing one fracture plane was observed in the viral envelope. During the conversion of immature into mature virus, particles inside the envelope become partly rearranged into parallel bands.

Molluscum Contagiosum Virus Evasion of Immune Surveillance: A Review

Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2023
Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is an acute infection caused by the molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) with a worldwide incidence of approximately 8,000 cases per 100,000 individuals annually. Greater than 90% of MC cases occur in the pediatric population, and affected adults are more likely to be younger or immunocompromised.
