JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is an opportunistic virus that remains in a latent state in the kidneys and lymphoid organs of more than half of the human adult population. In rare cases of severe immune suppression, the virus is able to establish a lytic infectio ...
We exploited the ability of lentiviral vectors to govern the stable transduction of cells irrespective of their cycling status to induce the reversible immortalization of human primary cells. First, bicistronic HIV-derived lentiviral vectors expressing GFP ...

Viruses are genetically and structurally diverse, and outnumber cells by orders of magnitude. They can cause acute and chronic infections, suppress, or exacerbate immunity, or dysregulate survival and growth of cells. To identify chemical agents with pro- ...
Sub-meter distributed optical fiber sensing based on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis with differential pulse-width pairs (DPP-BOTDA) is combined with the use of optical pre-amplification and pulse coding. In order to provide significant measurement ...
The HIV-1 regulatory proteins Tat and Rev are encoded by multiply spliced mRNAs that differ by the use of alternative 3' splice sites at the beginning of the internal exon. If these internal exons are skipped, the expression of these genes, and hence HIV-1 ...
Bidirectional low-noise Raman amplification and simplex coding based on the return-to-zero modulation format are optimized through numerical simulations for long-range Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensing. Experimental results are reported on sen ...
HIV infection can persist in spite of efficacious antiretroviral therapies. Although incomplete inhibition of viral replication may contribute to this phenomenon, this is largely due to the early establishment of a stable reservoir of latently infected cel ...

BACKGROUND: Encapsulating cells prevents the immune destruction of allogeneic cells in the subcutaneous site as well as allogeneic and xenogeneic cells in the central nervous system. However, when encapsulated xenogeneic cells are implanted s.c., they may ...
Reactivation of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a significant cause of disease and death in immunocompromised patients underscoring the need to understand how latency is controlled. Here we demonstrate that HCMV has evolved to utilize cellular miRNAs in ce ...
Viral infections kill millions of people and new antivirals are needed. Nontoxic drugs that irreversibly inhibit viruses (virucidal) are postulated to be ideal. Unfortunately, all virucidal molecules described to date are cytotoxic. We recently developed n ...
