Mouse retrovirus mediates porcine endogenous retrovirus transmission into human cells in long-term human-porcine chimeric mice [PDF]
Porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) is a potential pathogen in clinical xenotransplantation; transmission of PERV in vivo has been suggested in murine xenotransplantation models. We analyzed the transmission of PERV to human cells in vivo using a model in which immunodeficient NOD/SCID transgenic mice were transplanted with porcine and human ...

Conserving genetic material and even increasing genetic diversity is critical. To conduct the conservation of wild boar germplasm resources, we have successfully obtained healthy cloned wild boars for the first time using interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer and established transgene‐free iPSCs that can be used to conduct iterative rounds of gene

Embryonic Mediators of Embryo–Uterus Communication, Implantation and Pregnancy
ABSTRACT Successful reproduction in eutherian mammals requires intimate connections between the embryo and uterus, involving adhesion, attachment and placentation, with or without invasion of the endometrium. The complex dialogue between embryo and uterus involves numerous molecules and pathways.

Advancing Antiviral Design: Integrating Natural Products, Computation and Targeted Delivery
A stepwise translational framework linking natural‐product discovery, computational prioritisation, experimental validation, lead optimisation and targeted delivery is proposed to advance antiviral design. ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic highlighted the role of rapid viral mutation and global connectivity in accelerating viral emergence and spread ...

Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus Transmission Characteristics of an Inbred Herd of Miniature Swine [PDF]
ABSTRACT Here we report the identification of inbred miniature swine that failed to produce human-tropic replication-competent porcine endogenous retroviruses (HTRC PERVs), using in vitro coculture assays. When HTRC PERVs were isolated from transmitting animals, all were recombinant viruses, with the receptor-binding domain of PERV-A ...

ABSTRACT Background Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic autoimmune disease marked by the destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin. Despite advances in insulin delivery and glucose monitoring technologies, patients remain at risk for acute and long‐term complications, underscoring the need for ...

Ethical Considerations in Islet Xenotransplantation
ABSTRACT For the management of type 1 diabetes, islet xenotransplantation has emerged as a potential alternative to lifelong insulin therapy or islet allotransplantation. However, this progress raises significant ethical questions that warrant further exploration.

Functional hierarchy of two L domains in porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) that influence release and infectivity [PDF]
The porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) Gag protein contains two late (L) domain motifs, PPPY and P(F/S)AP. Using viral release assays we demonstrate that PPPY is the dominant L domain involved in PERV release.
