Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the etiological agent of enzootic bovine leukosis, which is the most common neoplastic disease of cattle. BLV infects cattle worldwide and causes serious problems for the cattle industry.

Host genetic factors associated to proviral load in Peruvian HTLV-1 infected [PDF]
Patients with HTLV-1 associated myelopathy (HAM/TSP) tend to present higher HTLV-1 proviral load (PVL) than asymptomatic carriers (AC). PVL remains the only marker consistently associated with HAM/TSP across several populations. We report a candidate gene study to identify associations between host genetic markers and PVL.

Relationship between Allelic Heterozygosity in BoLA-DRB3 and Proviral Loads in Bovine Leukemia Virus-Infected Cattle [PDF]
Enzootic bovine leukosis is a lethal neoplastic disease caused by bovine leukemia virus (BLV), belongs to family Retroviridae. The BLV proviral load (PVL) represents the quantity of BLV genome that has integrated into the host’s genome in BLV-infected cells.

Different patterns of HIV-1 DNA after therapy discontinuation
Background By persisting in infected cells for a long period of time, proviral HIV-1 DNA can represent an alternative viral marker to RNA viral load during the follow-up of HIV-1 infected individuals.

Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are economically important viral pathogens of sheep and goats. SRLV infection may interfere in the innate and adaptive immunity of the host, and genes associated with resistance or susceptibility to infection with SRLV ...

Effector memory differentiation increases detection of replication-competent HIV-l in resting CD4+ T cells from virally suppressed individuals. [PDF]
Studies have demonstrated that intensive ART alone is not capable of eradicating HIV-1, as the virus rebounds within a few weeks upon treatment interruption.

Underestimated effect of intragenic HIV-1 DNA methylation on viral transcription in infected individuals [PDF]
Background: The HIV-1 proviral genome harbors multiple CpG islands (CpGIs), both in the promoter and intragenic regions. DNA methylation in the promoter region has been shown to be heavily involved in HIV-1 latency regulation in cultured cells.

Low proviral small ruminant lentivirus load as biomarker of natural restriction in goats
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) globally affect welfare and production of sheep and goats and are mainly controlled through elimination of infected animals, independently of the viral kinetics within the single animal. Control programs are based on highly sensitive serological tests, however the existence of low antibody responders leads to the ...

Infections by Human T cell Leukaemia Virus type 1 (HTLV-1) persist for the lifetime of the host by integrating into the genome of CD4+ T cells. Proviral gene expression is essential for proviral survival and the maintenance of the proviral load, through ...

Long‐term follow‐up study on SIV intestinal proviral load in rhesus macaques
After experimental infection with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), intestinal endoscopy proved to be an easily tolerated, minimal invasive procedure to obtain biopsies from the gastrointestinal tract of rhesus macaques during all stages of disease.
