Polyoma BK Virus: An Oncogenic Virus? [PDF]
We report a case of a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of end stage renal disease who underwent a successful cadaveric donor kidney transplant four years ago. He subsequently developed BK virus nephropathy related to chronic immunosuppressant therapy. Three years later, misfortune struck again, and he developed adenocarcinoma of the bladder.

TIV vaccination modulates host responses to influenza virus infection that correlate with protection against bacterial superinfection [PDF]
Background: Influenza virus infection predisposes to secondary bacterial pneumonia. Currently licensed influenza vaccines aim at the induction of neutralizing antibodies and are less effective if the induction of neutralizing antibodies is low and/or the

A Discrete-time Networked Competitive Bivirus SIS Model [PDF]
The paper deals with the analysis of a discrete-time networked competitive bivirus susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model. More specifically, we suppose that virus 1 and virus 2 are circulating in the population and are in competition with each other.

Chimeric Yellow Fever/Dengue Virus as a Candidate Dengue Vaccine: Quantitation of the Dengue Virus-Specific CD8 T-Cell Response [PDF]
We have constructed a chimeric yellow fever/dengue (YF/DEN) virus, which expresses the premembrane (prM) and envelope (E) genes from DEN type 2 (DEN-2) virus in a YF virus (YFV-17D) genetic background. Immunization of BALB/c mice with this chimeric virus

Self-organized critical dynamics of RNA virus evolution [PDF]
RNA virus (e.g., SARS-CoV-2) evolves in a complex manner. Studying RNA virus evolution is vital for understanding molecular evolution and medicine development. Scientists lack, however, general frameworks to characterize the dynamics of RNA virus evolution directly from empirical data and identify potential physical laws. To fill this gap, we present a
