Modeling Cytomegalovirus Infection in Mouse Tumor Models
The hypothesis that cytomegalovirus (CMV) modulates cancer is evolving. Originally discovered in glioblastoma in 2002, the number of cancers, where intratumoral CMV antigen is detected, has increased in recent years suggesting that CMV actively affects the pathobiology of certain tumors. These findings are controversial as several groups have also reported inability to replicate these results. ...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus Infection and Atherosclerosis: A Systematic Review
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is one of the most common infections that affects humans’ cardiovascular system. Although the literature includes controversial evidence for any correlation between CMV infection and arterial atherosclerosis, the majority of studies, especially those with larger patient population and stronger data stand for such a relationship. However, the number of prospective...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of innate immunity to infection: the mouse cytomegalovirus model.
Resistance to infection is largely inherited rather than acquired, and is encoded by a definable set of host genes designated the 'resistome'. Logically speaking, piecemeal disruption of the resistome gives us the best chance to define it, and the most spectacular advances in understanding innate immunity have grown from spontaneous or induced germline mutations of the resistome. Mutations indu...
متن کاملA Mouse Model of Interstitial Pneumonitis Induced by Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection after Allogeneic Skin Transplantation
We investigated the effect of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) on interstitial pneumonia in transplant recipients in an experimental skin allograft model. Skin transplantation between C57BL/6J and BALB/c mice was performed in the presence or absence of cyclosporin A treatment. Flow cytometry showed that the number of CD4(+) and CD8(+) cells and the level of IFN- γ decreased significantly in the gr...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 induces mouse cytomegalovirus interstitial pneumonia in a latent infection model.
To better understand immune mechanisms involved in onset of cytomegalovirus pneumonia, we initially examined the replication of a low virulence strain of mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) in nude and BALB/c mice infected by intranasal inoculation. MCMV was detected by plaque assay in the salivary glands of nude mice from days 3 to 16, and in those of BALB/c mice from days 7 to 11. Nude mice became i...
