Identification of Novel Betaherpesviruses in Iberian Bats Reveals Parallel Evolution. [PDF]
A thorough search for bat herpesviruses was carried out in oropharyngeal samples taken from most of the bat species present in the Iberian Peninsula from the Vespertilionidae, Miniopteridae, Molossidae and Rhinolophidae families, in addition to a colony ...

The first endogenous herpesvirus, identified in the tarsier genome, and novel sequences from primate rhadinoviruses and lymphocryptoviruses. [PDF]
Herpesviridae is a diverse family of large and complex pathogens whose genomes are extremely difficult to sequence. This is particularly true for clinical samples, and if the virus, host, or both genomes are being sequenced for the first time.

Zoonosis and xenozoonosis in xenotransplantation: A proposal for a new classification
Xenotransplantation is under development in order to alleviate the shortage of human organs for the treatment of organ failure. For many reasons, including the ability to be easily cloned and genetically modified, pigs are used as donor animals. Numerous

Active HHV-6 Infection of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells in Mood Disorders
Early-life infections and associated neuroinflammation is incriminated in the pathogenesis of various mood disorders. Infection with human roseoloviruses, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, allows viral latency in the central nervous system and other tissues, which can ...
