Type W Human Endogenous Retrovirus (HERV-W) Integrations and Their Mobilization by L1 Machinery: Contribution to the Human Transcriptome and Impact on the Host Physiopathology [PDF]
Human Endogenous Retroviruses (HERVs) are ancient infection relics constituting ~8% of our DNA. While HERVs' genomic characterization is still ongoing, impressive amounts of data have been obtained regarding their general expression across tissues. Among

Xenotransplants: The Risks and Benefits [PDF]
This literature review discusses how xenotransplants from animals, especially pigs, can serve as viable alternatives to allotransplants. There are many ways of ensuring the health of the host, including testing the donor pig for cytomegalovirus, Epstein ...

Novel polyomaviruses in mammals from multiple orders and reassessment of polyomavirus evolution and taxonomy [PDF]
As the phylogenetic organization of mammalian polyomaviruses is complex and currently incompletely resolved, we aimed at a deeper insight into their evolution by identifying polyomaviruses in host orders and families that have either rarely or not been ...

Determination of the Copy Number of Porcine Endogenous Retroviruses (PERV) in Auckland Island Pigs Repeatedly Used for Clinical Xenotransplantation and Elimination of PERV-C [PDF]
Auckland Island pigs represent an inbred population of feral pigs isolated on the sub-Antarctic island for over 100 years. The animals have been maintained under pathogen-free conditions in New Zealand; they are well characterized virologically and have ...

Studies on porcine cytomegalovirus relevant to xenotransplantation. [PDF]
Xenotransplantation of porcine organs into humans provides a potential solution to the current shortage of human donor organs, but raises considerable safety concerns including the potential transmission of porcine infectious agents, particularly viruses,

North American bats and their viruses: The effect of stressors on persistent infections and viral shedding [PDF]
There is direct or circumstantial evidence that several viruses that cause no obvious disease in bats have spilled over into humans and other species causing serious and often fatal disease.
