Potential Infectious Complications in Pig Xenograft Donors and Recipients
Preclinical and clinical xenotransplantation trials have shown that successful outcomes depend on a number of factors including the prevention of xenozoonoses.

ABSTRACT Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are integrated into the genome of all pigs and can infect human cells in culture. However, no PERV infections have been reported in recipients following preclinical or clinical xenotransplantation or deliberate infection experiments.

Identification of Novel Betaherpesviruses in Iberian Bats Reveals Parallel Evolution.
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 ...

Working with Miraculous Mice: Mus musculus as a Model Organism
Abstract The laboratory mouse has been described as a “miracle” model organism, providing a window by which we may gain an understanding of ourselves. Since the first recorded mouse experiment in 1664, the mouse has become the most used animal model in biomedical research.

Background: roseoloviruses, including human herpesvirus (HHV) 6A/B and HHV-7, are implicated in several diseases but remain underexplored among clinically healthy individuals. Aim: this study aims to assess the role of HHV-6A, HHV-6B, and HHV-7 in the onset of infectious and inflammatory diseases affecting the upper respiratory tract in children ...

An Approach to Controlling Inflammation and Coagulation in Pig‐to‐Baboon Cardiac Xenotransplantation
ABSTRACT Introduction Inflammatory responses and coagulation disorders are a relevant challenge for successful cardiac xenotransplantation on its way to the clinic. To cope with this, an effective and clinically practicable anti‐inflammatory and anti‐coagulatory regimen is needed.

Rapid taxonomic categorization of short, abundant virus sequences for ecological analyses
We sampled 1086 bats from two, adjacent Puerto Rican caves and tested them for infection by herpesviruses, resulting in 3131 short, viral sequences. Using percent identity of nucleotides and a machine learning algorithm (affinity propagation), we categorized herpesviruses into 43 operational taxonomic units (OTUs).

Abstract Background The German Xenotransplantation Consortium is in the process to prepare a clinical trial application (CTA) on xenotransplantation of genetically modified pig hearts. In the CTA documents to the central and national regulatory authorities, that is, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI), respectively,
