Oncolytic Virus-Mediated RAS Targeting in Rhabdomyosarcoma
Aberrant activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated RAS signaling cascade is the primary driver of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), a pediatric cancer characterized by a block in myogenic differentiation.

Capripoxviruses, leporipoxviruses, and orthopoxviruses: Occurrences of recombination
Poxviruses are double-stranded DNA viruses with several members displaying restricted host ranges. They are genetically stable with low nucleotide mutation rates compared to other viruses, due to the poxviral high-fidelity DNA polymerase. Despite the low

Changes in the virulence of myxoma virus strains in Britain [PDF]
SUMMARYNational surveys of the virulence of field strains of myxoma virus were carried out in 1975 (128 virus strains) and in 1981 (123 strains), using the virulence testing method employed in a similar survey in 1962. Results showed that the virulence of field strains had increased between 1962 and 1975, and again between 1975 and 1981.

Current Topics of Progressive Cardiac Conduction Disease
Many genes and the protein cause PCCD. Mutation of NaV1.5 or CX40 cause isolated PCCD, but mutation of lamin A/C, emerin, or desmin lead to cardiomyopathy, and PCCD. Mutation of transcription factor NCX2‐5, and Tbx5 associated with atrial septal defect and abnormal development of conduction system.

No association between herpes simplex virus 1 and cardiac myxoma
PRINCIPLES: Cardiac myxoma is the most commonly diagnosed cardiac tumour. Infection of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1) has been postulated to be a factor for this pathologic entity.

Myxoma virusjumps species to the Iberian hare [PDF]
The study of myxoma virus (MYXV) infections in the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) has produced one of the most accepted host-pathogen evolutionary models. To date, myxomatosis has been limited to the European rabbit with sporadic reports in hares.

Historically, Myxomatosis was a severe disease in the European wild and domesticated rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) with only a few reported cases in hares. Recently, beside the classic myxoma virus strains, new natural recombinant strains have emerged.

Outbreaks of myxomatosis in Iberian hares (Lepus granatensis) were detected for the first time in Spain in 2018. The disease spread to a significant proportion of the species range, negatively affecting the hare populations.
