Rodent Papillomaviruses [PDF]

Viruses, 2017
Preclinical infection model systems are extremely valuable tools to aid in our understanding of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) biology, disease progression, prevention, and treatments. In this context, rodent papillomaviruses and their respective infection models are useful tools but remain underutilized resources in the field of papillomavirus biology ...

Ghost rodents: Albinism in Australian rodent species

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
AbstractWhile almost half of all mammal species are rodents, records of albinism in free‐ranging rodents are very rare. Australia has a large and diverse assemblage of native rodent species, but there are no records of free‐ranging albino rodents in the published literature.

A Plant Virus Ensures Viral Stability in the Hemolymph of Vector Insects through Suppressing Prophenoloxidase Activation

mBio, 2020
Most plant viruses require vector insects for transmission. Viral stability in the hemolymph of vector insects is a prerequisite for successful transmission of persistent plant viruses.

The invasion process of the entomopathogenic fungus Ophiocordyceps sinensis into the larvae of ghost moths (Thitarodes xiaojinensis) using a GFP-labeled strain

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Chinese cordyceps is a well-known and valuable traditional Chinese medicine that forms after Ophiocordyceps sinensis parasitizes ghost moth larvae. The low natural infection rate of O.

PEBP balances apoptosis and autophagy in whitefly upon arbovirus infection

Nature Communications, 2022
Arbovirus has co-evolved with its insect vector, enabling efficient and persistent transmission by vectors. Here, the authors reveal an immune homeostatic mechanism shaped by apoptosis and autophagy that facilitates arbovirus preservation within its ...

Transient rapamycin treatment can increase lifespan and healthspan in middle-aged mice [PDF]

, 2016
The FDA approved drug rapamycin increases lifespan in rodents and delays age-related dysfunction in rodents and humans. Nevertheless, important questions remain regarding the optimal dose, duration, and mechanisms of action in the context of healthy ...

Helicoverpa armigera miR-2055 regulates lipid metabolism via fatty acid synthase expression

Open Biology, 2022
Insect hormones and microRNAs regulate lipid metabolism, but the mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Here, we found that cotton bollworm larvae feeding on Arabidopsis thaliana (AT) leaves had a lower triacylglycerol (TAG) level and more delayed ...

N-glycosylation of Viral E Protein Is the Determinant for Vector Midgut Invasion by Flaviviruses

mBio, 2018
Transmission of flaviviruses by hematophagous insects such as mosquitoes requires acquisition of the virus during blood feeding on the host, with midgut as the primary infection site.
