Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses PERV-A and PERV-B Infect neither Mouse Cells in vitro nor SCID Mice in vivo

Intervirology, 2005
<i>Objective:</i> Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) pose a risk for xenotransplantations using pig materials as they are present in the genome of all pigs and are able to infect human cells in vitro. Until recently, transmission of PERVs in vivo was only described in severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) and nude mice inoculated with

First Report of the Malacosporean Parasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae in the Faroe Islands Reveals Widespread Distribution and High Prevalence in Brown Trout

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The myxozoan endoparasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae (Tb), the causative agent of proliferative kidney disease (PKD) in salmonids, has predominantly been reported in temperate regions of continental Europe and North America. Here, we present the first record of Tb in the Faroe Islands, extending the known northern distribution of the ...

A: Retrotranspositionspotential endogener und exogener Retroviren und B: Durchmusterung verschiedener transgener Schweine auf Anwesenheit replikationskompetenter PERV-A und PERV-B sowie ekotroper PERV-C [PDF]

, 2008
Bei endogenen Retroviren handelt es sich um feste Bestandteile des Genoms. Im Fall von PERV (porzine endogene Retroviren) existieren zusätzlich infektiöse, xenotrope Vertreter. Aufgrund dieser Tatsache ist es notwendig, diese replikationskompetenten Proviren aus dem Genom potentieller Donortiere für die Xenotransplantation zu entfernen.

Prevalence and Risk Factors for Obstructive Sleep Apnea in São Paulo: Findings From the 4th Edition of the EPISONO Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects around 936 million individuals worldwide, making it the most prevalent breathing‐related sleep disorder. The aim was to estimate the prevalence of OSA in São Paulo, Brazil, based on data from the São Paulo Epidemiologic Sleep Study (EPISONO) 4th edition.

Degenerate Perverse Sheaves on Abelian Varieties [PDF]

, 2015

Comparison of Haemoglobin Concentrations From Venous and From Finger‐Pricked Capillary Blood in a Region With a High Prevalence of Anaemia in Ethiopia

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This cross‐sectional study was conducted in the Somali Regional State in Ethiopia. The purpose of the study was to compare haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations from venous and finger‐pricked capillary blood using the HemoCue 301 as well as estimating anaemia prevalence. Participants were non‐pregnant women of reproductive age (WRA), 18–49 years old

Does the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency employment vary over the business cycle?

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the cyclicality of the stepping‐stone effect of temporary agency work in Germany across three business cycles using administrative data and a timing‐of‐events model. We estimate in‐ and post‐treatment effects and their response to the unemployment rate.

Why was PERV not transmitted during preclinical and clinical xenotransplantation trials and after inoculation of animals?

Retrovirology, 2018
Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are present in the genome of all pigs, they infect certain human cells and therefore pose a special risk for xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues and organs.
