Wolbachia are vertically transmitted, obligatory intracellular bacteria that infect a great
number of species of arthropods and nematodes. In insects, they are mainly known for …

Wolbachia are intracellular bacterial symbionts that are able to protect various insect hosts
from viral infections. This tripartite interaction was initially described in Drosophila …

A virus–virus interaction is a measurable difference in the course of infection of one virus as
a result of a concurrent or prior infection by a different species or strain of virus. Many such …

Most vertebrates are infected with one or more herpesviruses and remain so for the rest of
their lives. The relationship of immunocompetent healthy host with herpesviruses may …

The medical literature of the past 4 decades was searched regarding respiratory virus
detection by polymerase chain reaction and conventional methods (culture, antigen …

The study of human cell–cell and cell–pathogen interactions that occur in the context of
complex tissue cytoarchitecture is critical for deciphering the mechanisms of many normal …
