Number of Virus Particles in Insects and Plants Infected with Wound Tumor Virus [PDF]
A new procedure for counting virus particles was employed to measure the concentration of wound tumor virus in purified virus preparations, in plant tumors, and in the insect vector. Partially purified wound tumor virus was used to establish the quantitative features of the method. A 1-g amount of plant tumor tissue contained an average of

LCVM infection generates tumor antigen-specific immunity and inhibits growth of nonviral tumors
Antibodies and T cells specific for tumor-associated antigens (TAA) are found in individuals without cancer but with a history of infections and are associated with lowered cancer risk.

Tumorigenesis related to retroviral infections
Retroviral infections are considered important risk factors for cancer development in humans since approximately 15-20% of cancer worldwide is caused by an infectious agent.

Immune evasion of the CD1d/NKT cell axis [PDF]
Many reviews on the CD1d/NKT cell axis focus on the ability of CD1d-restricted NKT cells to serve as effector cells in a variety of disorders, be they infectious diseases, cancer or autoimmunity.

Seroconversion of sheep experimentally infected with enzootic nasal tumor virus [PDF]
Enzootic nasal tumor virus (ENTV-1) is an exogenous betaretrovirus of sheep that transforms epithelial cells lining the ethmoid turbinates leading to a disease called enzootic nasal adenocarcinoma (ENA). A unique feature of ENA is the apparent absence of a specific humoral immune response to the virus, despite the highly productive infection in nasal ...

The PD-1/PD-L1 Axis and Virus Infections: A Delicate Balance
Programmed cell death protein (PD-1) and its ligands play a fundamental role in the evasion of tumor cells from antitumor immunity. Less well appreciated is the fact that the PD-1/PD-L1 axis also regulates antiviral immune responses and is therefore ...

IL-6 and G-CSF production resulting from lung cancer in an HIV patient
Increasing reports have noted an increased prevalence of lung cancer in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients with poor prognosis. A 51-year-old HIV-positive man was diagnosed with stage IV squamous cell lung cancer.

Vaccination can prevent viral infections via virus-specific T cells, among other mechanisms. A goal of oncolytic virotherapy is replication of oncolytic viruses (OVs) in tumors, so pre-existing T cell immunity against an OV-encoded transgene would seem ...
