The modulation of apoptosis by oncogenic viruses. [PDF]
Abstract Transforming viruses can change a normal cell into a cancer cell during their normal life cycle. Persistent infections with these viruses have been recognized to cause some types of cancer. These viruses have been implicated in the modulation of various biological processes, such as proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis.

From the skin to the brain: a hint to diagnose herpes simplex virus type 2 meningitis [PDF]
Introduction. Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is recognized as one of the most common causes of aseptic meningitis, that is also а well-known complication of genital herpes. We report a case of recurrent HSV-2 meningitis without genital lesions, but

Arboviruses and Muscle Disorders: From Disease to Cell Biology
Infections due to arboviruses (arthropod-borne viruses) have dramatically increased worldwide during the last few years. In humans, symptoms associated with acute infection of most arboviruses are often described as “dengue-like syndrome”, including ...

Endemicity and genetic diversity of Hepatitis delta virus among Pygmies in Cameroon, Central Africa
Objective A single study conducted about three decades ago on hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection among Baka pygmies in Cameroon reported a very high anti-HDV antibodies prevalence of 46%, but HDV genetic diversity has not been studied in this population ...

Interaction of viral oncogenic proteins with the Wnt signaling pathway [PDF]
It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation.
