How, where and when to screen for porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) in donor pigs for xenotransplantation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), that is actually a porcine roseolovirus (PRV), is a common herpesvirus in domestic pigs and wild boars. In xenotransplantation, PCMV/PRV has been shown to significantly reduce the survival time of pig kidneys and hearts in

An Optimized Protocol for the Generation of iPSC Lines from Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines Using the Non‐integrative Sendai Virus

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The choice of cell source for generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is influenced by several factors, including accessibility, reprogramming efficiency, and the invasiveness of the cell collection procedure. Traditional sources such as skin fibroblasts or peripheral blood mononuclear cells often require invasive sampling, which can

Analyses of Tissue Culture Adaptation of Human Herpesvirus-6A by Whole Genome Deep Sequencing Redefines the Reference Sequence and Identifies Virus Entry Complex Changes

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Tissue-culture adaptation of viruses can modulate infection. Laboratory passage and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)mid cloning of human cytomegalovirus, HCMV, resulted in genomic deletions and rearrangements altering genes encoding the virus entry ...

Active HHV-6 Infection of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells in Mood Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
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 ...

Humanized Mouse Models of Epstein Barr Virus Infection

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract The oncogenic Epstein Barr virus (EBV) is an exclusively human pathogen with related lymphocryptoviruses (γ1‐herpesviruses) only present in monkeys. Therefore, experimentation with EBV infection in a small animal model requires reconstitution or adoptive transfer of human lymphocyte populations, primarily EBV's main host cell, the human B cell.
