The encephalomyocarditis virus [PDF]
Virulence, 2012 The encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) is a small non-enveloped single-strand RNA virus, the causative agent of not only myocarditis and encephalitis, but also neurological diseases, reproductive disorders and diabetes in many mammalian species. EMCV pathogenesis appears to be viral strain- and host-specific, and a better understanding of EMCV virulence

Journal of Neurovirology, 2003 A number of viruses can initiate central nervous system (CNS) diseases that include demyelination as a major feature of neuropathology. In humans, the most prominent demyelinating diseases are progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, caused by JC papovirus destruction of oligodendrocytes, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, an invariably fatal ...

Hepatitis Delta Virus: A Peculiar Virus [PDF]
Advances in Virology, 2013 The hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is distributed worldwide and related to the most severe form of viral hepatitis. HDV is a satellite RNA virus dependent on hepatitis B surface antigens to assemble its envelope and thus form new virions and propagate infection. HDV has a small 1.7 Kb genome making it the smallest known human virus.

Trends in Microbiology, 2018 This infographic briefly summarises the natural history, replication cycle, and pathogenesis of influenza viruses, the cause of seasonal influenza and of influenza pandemics. Influenza viruses infect many vertebrates, with Influenza A, B and C viruses (IAV, IBV, and ICV) infecting humans. High mutation rates allow the evasion of immunity.

Junín Virus Pathogenesis and Virus Replication [PDF]
Viruses, 2012 Junín virus, the etiological agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, causes significant morbidity and mortality. The virus is spread through the aerosolization of host rodent excreta and endemic to the humid pampas of Argentina. Recently, significant progress has been achieved with the development of new technologies (e.g.

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Boraceia Virus. A New Virus Related to Anopheles B Virus.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1966 SummaryBoraceia virus, a new arbovirus isolated from Anopheles (K.) cruzii, is described. Serological cross-reactions between Boraceia and Anopheles B virus were demonstrated. It is proposed that these viruses form a new arbovirus antigenic group, the Anopheles B group.The authors are indebted to Miss Amelia H. P. Andrade and Dr. Robert E.

Osugoroshi virus, a male-killer virus
Uirusu, 2021 In insects, sex ratio bias is sometimes introduced by feminization, parthenogenesis, cytoplasmic incompatibility, or male-killing. Some intracellular bacteria such as Wolbachia or Spiroplasma has been known as male-killing agents. Here I introduce an example of non-bacterial male-killing agent, Osugoroshi virus found in oriental tea tortrix.
