Transfusion-transmitted arboviruses: Update and systematic review.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022 BackgroundThe detection of the first cases of transfusion-transmitted West Nile virus in 2002 posed a new challenge for transfusion safety. Institutions like the World Health Organization have stated that blood transfusion centers need to know the ...

Xenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus-Related Virus (XMRV) and the Safety of the Blood Supply [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2016 SUMMARY In 2006, a new virus, xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV), was discovered in a cohort of U.S. men with prostate cancer. Soon after this initial finding, XMRV was also detected in samples from patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).

Evidence and information for national injection safety policies [PDF]
, 2003 The adverse consequences of poor injection practices have been reported for a few decades. However, key elements of evidence and information were lacking to allow decision-makers to formulate policies for the safe and appropriate use of injections.

Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceA major concern of xenotransplantation is that donor organs may be a source of pathogens. One pathogen in particular, porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV), a porcine roseolovirus (PRV), is thought to result in donor organ failure in an immunosuppressed state ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Protective immunity and safety of a genetically modified influenza virus vaccine. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Recombinant influenza viruses are promising viral platforms to be used as antigen delivery vectors. To this aim, one of the most promising approaches consists of generating recombinant viruses harboring partially truncated neuraminidase (NA) segments. To

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Communications BiologyHepatitis A virus (HAV) egresses from hepatocytes cloaked in exosomes (eHAV). However, the traffic network used for its release from polarized hepatocytes is not completely understood. We propose that eHAV biogenesis may follow not only an ESCRT-mediated

Screening for Viruses in Indigenous Greek Black Pigs
MicroorganismsThe successful advancement of xenotransplantation has led to the development of highly sensitive detection systems for the screening of potentially zoonotic viruses in donor pigs and preventing their transmission to the recipient.
