Failure to detect xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus in blood of individuals at high risk of blood-borne viral infections.
A xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) has recently been reported in association with prostate cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome, with a prevalence of up to 3.7% in the healthy population. We looked for XMRV in 230 patients with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 or hepatitis C infection. XMRV was undetectable in plasma or peripheral blood mononuclear cells by polymerase cha...
متن کاملXenotropic Murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) in Iranian HIV Patients
Background: Despite of isolation of Xenotropic murine leukaemia virus-related virus (XMRV) from the patients acquired prostate cancer in 2006 and patients with chronic fatigue syndrome in 2009, there have been controversial findings about its potential role in human diseases and frequencies in different population groups. In the present study, we aimed to determine the frequency of XMRV genome ...
متن کاملNo detection of the retrovirus xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus in individuals with hemophilia.
BACKGROUND Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) is a retrovirus that has recently been related to prostate cancers and chronic fatigue syndrome. Since other human-pathogenic retroviruses, such as HIV, human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) and -II, are known blood-transmitted pathogens, XMRV might present another hazard associated with products derived from in vitro culture...
متن کاملThe tale of xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus.
In 2006, a new retrovirus was isolated from prostate cancer patient tissue. Named xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV), this was potentially the third class of retrovirus to be pathogenic in humans. XMRV made a more dramatic impact on the wider scientific community, and indeed the media, in 2009 when it was reported to be present in a remarkably high proportion of patients with...
متن کاملXenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus proviral DNA not detected in blood samples donated in Japan.
The xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) was first described as a novel human gammaretrovirus in prostate tumor tissues and was reported to be found in blood, suggesting the possibility of XMRV transmission via blood transfusion. The gag and env regions of the XMRV proviral DNA that were detected 1,030 blood samples collected from the greater Tokyo area were examined by rea...
