Foamy viruses (FV) belong to the genus Spumavirus, which forms a distinct lineage in the Retroviridae family. Although the infection in natural hosts and zoonotic transmission to humans is asymptomatic, FVs can replicate well in human cells making it an ...

HTLV screening and confirmatory testing among blood donors in São Paulo: A cross‐sectional study
Abstract Introduction Human T‐cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV‐1/2) are transfusion‐transmissible retroviruses associated with severe diseases, and blood donor screening is mandatory in Brazil. Increasing HTLV‐related discard rates at our institution prompted this study to determine the prevalence and incidence of HTLV‐1/2 and to investigate

ABSTRACT Cell lines are essential tools for studying animal physiology and immunopathology, reducing the use of live animals and supporting the 3Rs principle of reduction, refinement, and replacement. The Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis), a relevant species for Spanish aquaculture diversification, lacks established in vitro models. We developed SsB‐

Defective HIV proviruses: possible involvement in the HIV infection pathogenesis
This review article analyzes information obtained from a literature search on defective HIV genomes (HIV-1, Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Lentivirus, Orthoretrovirinae, Retroviridae). It discusses the origins of defective HIV genomes, their potential for

Extension of the viral ecology in humans using viral profile hidden Markov models. [PDF]
When human samples are sequenced, many assembled contigs are "unknown", as conventional alignments find no similarity to known sequences. Hidden Markov models (HMM) exploit the positions of specific nucleotides in protein-encoding codons in various ...

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) allosteric integrase inhibitors (ALLINIs) offer a vital alternative to standard therapies by targeting noncatalytic sites. By inducing aberrant integrase multimerization, they disrupt viral maturation. This review explores their medicinal chemistry evolution, detailing structural insights, structure–activity ...
