Introduction Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has long been a useful research tool in virology
and recently become an essential part of medicinal products. Vesiculovirus research is …

Background There has been no previous systematic study of the distribution of the major
subtypes of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) across geographic regions, although there …

Mammalian genomes contain a heavy load of retroelements, which are mobile sequences
requiring reverse transcription for their amplification. A significant proportion of these …

Liver-related mortality is increased in the setting of HIV-hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfection.
However, interactions between HIV and HBV to explain this observation have not been …

ABSTRACT HIV infections are initiated by a limited number of variants that diverge into a
diverse quasispecies swarm. During in utero mother-to-child transmission (IU MTCT) …

Mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the leading
cause of HIV infection in infants. Direct infection of trophoblasts—cells forming the placental …

Generally, a reciprocal antagonistic interaction exists between the antiviral type I interferon
(IFN) and the antibacterial nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor …

The syncytiotrophoblast (ST) layer of the human placenta has an important role in limiting
transplacental viral spread from mother to fetus. Although certain strains of human …

Abstract Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1)
may interact during transplacental transmission of HIV‐1. The placental syncytiotrophoblast …

HIV-1 only infects humans and chimpanzees. SIV or SHIV are, therefore, used as models for
HIV in rhesus, cynomologus and pigtail macaques. Since conducting experiments in primate …
