No evidence for XMRV nucleic acids, infectious virus or anti-XMRV antibodies in Canadian patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. [PDF]
The gammaretroviruses xenotropic murine leukemia virus (MLV)-related virus (XMRV) and MLV have been reported to be more prevalent in plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients than in healthy controls.

Paclitaxel: Application in Modern Oncology and Nanomedicine‐Based Cancer Therapy
Paclitaxel is a broad‐spectrum anticancer compound, which was derived mainly from a medicinal plant, in particular, from the bark of the yew tree Taxus brevifolia Nutt. It is a representative of a class of diterpene taxanes, which are nowadays used as the most common chemotherapeutic agent against many forms of cancer.

In-depth investigation of archival and prospectively collected samples reveals no evidence for XMRV infection in prostate cancer. [PDF]
XMRV, or xenotropic murine leukemia virus (MLV)-related virus, is a novel gammaretrovirus originally identified in studies that analyzed tissue from prostate cancer patients in 2006 and blood from patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in 2009 ...

XMRV replicates preferentially in mucosal sites in vivo: Relevance to XMRV transmission? [PDF]
Xenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus-related Retrovirus (XMRV) was identified from prostate cancer tissue using DNA based ViroChip technology as well as in a cohort of chronic fatigue syndrome patients. To delineate the infection dynamics and dissemination in vivo, we have thus far infected 7 healthy rhesus macaques and 2 pigtailed macaques.

Mechanism for XMRV neurotoxicity [PDF]
Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) has been found in a high percentage of humans with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). However, more recent studies have failed to confirm these results, and it now appears likely that the original findings were due to patient sample contamination. Because it initially appeared that XMRV was involved in
