QuilA-adjuvanted T. gondii lysate antigens trigger robust antibody and IFNγ+ T cell responses in pigs leading to reduction in parasite DNA in tissues upon challenge infection [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular parasite of all mammals and birds, responsible for toxoplasmosis. In healthy individuals T. gondii infections mostly remain asymptomatic, however this parasite causes severe morbidity and mortality in ...

Respiratory disease in growing pigs after Porcine rubulavirus experimental infection
The aim of this study was to analyze the pathogenicity and distribution of Porcine rubulavirus (PorPV) in the respiratory tract of experimentally infected pigs. Nine 6-week-old pigs were infected with PorPV and examined clinically. Blood, nasal swab, and tissue samples were collected on different days post-infection (DPI).

Human IFIT1 inhibits mRNA translation of rubulaviruses but not other members of the Paramyxoviridae family [PDF]
This work was supported by The Welcome Trust (101788/Z/13/Z, 101792/Z/13/Z) and Medical research council grant (G1100110/1, MR/K024213/1).We have previously shown that IFIT1 is primarily responsible for the antiviral action of interferon (IFN) alpha/beta

Viral hijacking of cellular ubiquitination pathways as an anti-innate immunity strategy. [PDF]
International audienceViruses are obligate parasites of host cells. Virus-host coevolution has selected virus for growth despite antiviral defenses set up by hosting cells and organisms. Ubiquitin conjugation onto proteins, through a cascade of reactions

From conifers to cognition: Microbes, brain and behavior
A century ago biologists were surprised to discover live microbes (endophytes) within healthy plant tissues. It is now apparent that this is also true of mammals where, in addition to the gut microbiome, a diversity of endogenous microbes (endozoites) are present in multiple tissues including the brain.

Achimota Pararubulavirus 3: A New Bat-Derived Paramyxovirus of the Genus Pararubulavirus [PDF]
Bats are an important source of viral zoonoses, including paramyxoviruses. The paramyxoviral Pararubulavirus genus contains viruses mostly derived from bats that are common, diverse, distributed throughout the Old World, and known to be zoonotic.

Porcine NK cells stimulate proliferation of pseudorabies virus-experienced CD8+ and CD4+ CD8+ T cells [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells belong to the innate immune system and play a central role in the defense against viral infections and cancer development, but also contribute to shaping adaptive immune responses.

The switch between acute and persistent paramyxovirus infection caused by single amino acid substitutions in the RNA polymerase P subunit [PDF]
Paramyxoviruses can establish persistent infections both in vitro and in vivo, some of which lead to chronic disease. However, little is known about the molecular events that contribute to the establishment of persistent infections by RNA viruses.
