Testing Strategies for Detection of Xenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus-Related Virus Infection
Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) is a newly identified gamma retrovirus and may be associated with prostate cancer- (PC) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Since its identification in 2006 and detection of polytropic murine lenkemia virus (MLV)-like sequences in CFS patients in 2010, several test methods including nucleic acid testing methods and serological assays have be...
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 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 کاملLack of Detection of Xenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus-Related Virus in HIV-1 Lymphoma Patients
Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) is a gammaretrovirus reported to be associated with human prostate cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome. Since retroviruses cause various cancers, and XMRV replication might be facilitated by HIV-1 co-infection, we asked whether certain patients with HIV-associated lymphomas are infected with XMRV. Analysis of PMBCs and plasma from 26 patient...
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...
