Virus satellites drive viral evolution and ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Virus satellites are widespread subcellular entities, present both in eukaryotic and in prokaryotic cells. Their modus vivendi involves parasitism of the life cycle of their inducing helper viruses, which assures their transmission to a new host. However,

Evolutionary Dynamics of Giant Viruses and their Virophages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Giant viruses contain large genomes, encode many proteins atypical for viruses, replicate in large viral factories, and tend to infect protists. The giant virus replication factories can in turn be infected by so called virophages, which are smaller ...

Oncolytic viruses: a new class of immunotherapy drugs

open access: yesNature reviews. Drug discovery, 2015
Oncolytic viruses represent a new class of therapeutic agents that promote anti-tumour responses through a dual mechanism of action that is dependent on selective tumour cell killing and the induction of systemic anti-tumour immunity.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Viruses and asthma

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2011
Viral respiratory infection has long been known to influence the occurrence of asthma exacerbations. Over the last 20years much effort has been put into clarifying the role that viral respiratory infections play in the eventual development of asthma.In this review we give a general background of the role of viruses in the processes of asthma ...

Viruses and autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, 2009
AbstractAutophagy is an evolutionarily conserved intracellular process by which bulk cytoplasm is enveloped inside a double‐membraned vesicle and shuttled to lysosomes for degradation. Within the last 15 years, the genes necessary for the execution of autophagy have been identified and the number of tools for studying this process has grown.
