HIV-1 DNA proviral load in treated and untreated HIV-1 sero-positive patients [PDF]
As proviral human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) DNA can replenish and revive viral infection upon activation, its detection might offer significant therapeutic information, complementing the input provided by plasma RNA determination in the follow-up of infected individuals.

Economic losses associated with mastitis due to bovine leukemia virus infection
: Bovine leukemia virus (BLV), which causes enzootic bovine leukosis and immunosuppression, is widely prevalent on Japanese dairy farms. However, in the absence of a national eradication scheme with compensation programs, it is important to estimate BLV ...

Influence of INF-gamma gene polymorphism in HTLV-1 proviral load [PDF]
Background Interferon-gamma (INF-g) is a key cytokine involved in the defense against intracellular pathogens, such as HTLV-1, by coordinating the expression of immunologically relevant genes. Previous studies showed the importance of this cytokine on HTLV-1-related pathogenesis.

A human genome-wide loss-of-function screen identifies effective chikungunya antiviral drugs [PDF]
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a globally spreading alphavirus against which there is no commercially available vaccine or therapy. Here we use a genome-wide siRNA screen to identify 156 proviral and 41 antiviral host factors affecting CHIKV replication ...
