Induction of cytolytic T lymphocytes directed towards the V3 loop of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 external glycoprotein gp120 by p55gag/V3 chimeric vaccinia viruses [PDF]
T cell-mediated cytotoxicity may play an important role in controlling infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In order to study the ability of rationally designed antigens to induce cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTLs) we replaced stretches of 30 to ...

The development of penguinpox virus (PEPV) as a vaccine vector : transfer vector construction and rescue of virus growth in rabbit kidney cells (RK-13) by vaccinia virus K1 [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 131-137).Of the many vaccine trials which have taken place, the most promising results have been obtained from the recent phase 3 clinical trial which tested the ability of a dual protein and Canarypox virus ...

Inclusion Bodies of the Vaccinia Virus.
SummaryTwo kinds of inclusion bodies, “A” and “B” type, exist in tissues infected with ectromelia, fowl pox and vaccinia viruses. “B” type inclusion bodies of these 3 pox group viruses have almost the same morphological and cytochemical characters. The “A” type inclusion bodies of these viruses differ according to virus and host cell.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

HUMAN CYTOMEGALOVIRUS-SPECIFIC CYTO-TOXIC T-CELLS - RELATIVE FREQUENCY OF STAGE-SPECIFIC CTL RECOGNIZING THE 72-KD IMMEDIATE EARLY PROTEIN AND GLYCOPROTEIN-B EXPRESSED BY RECOMBINANT VACCINIA VIRUSES [PDF]
CTL are held to be an important host defense mechanism in persistent herpes-virus infections. We have therefore studied the nature and specificity of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV)-specific CTL in normal persistently infected individuals. This was achieved

CCL3 and IL‐7 Synergistically Enhance CAR‐T Efficacy in Solid Tumors
Synergistic delivery of CCL3 and IL‐7 by CAR‐T cells overcomes the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by enhancing cell infiltration, survival, and local immune reprogramming. This also establishes positive feedback that amplifies anti‐tumor activity and memory responses in both CAR‐T and endogenous T cells, presenting a robust therapeutic ...

Temporal expression classes and functions of vaccinia virus and mpox (monkeypox) virus genes
Poxviruses comprise pathogens that are highly pathogenic to humans and animals, causing diseases such as smallpox and mpox (formerly monkeypox). The family also contains members developed as vaccine vectors and oncolytic agents to fight other diseases ...

Serological Immunity to Smallpox in New South Wales, Australia
The re-emergence of smallpox is an increasing and legitimate concern due to advances in synthetic biology. Vaccination programs against smallpox using the vaccinia virus vaccine ceased with the eradication of smallpox and, unlike many other countries ...

This study generates a comprehensive Ebola virus (EBOV)‐human protein–protein interactome, comprising 1728 core high‐confidence interactions. Further interactome analysis revealed the potential association of EBOV glycoprotein (GP) with the host factor TM9SF2. Subsequent mechanistic investigations confirmed that TM9SF2 functions as an attachment factor

A nonstructural viral protein expressed by a recombinant vaccinia virus protects against lethal cytomegalovirus infection [PDF]
The nonstructural immediate-early protein pp89 of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is the first viral protein synthesized after infection and has a regulatory function in viral gene expression. Despite its localization in the nucleus of infected cells, pp89
