چکیده

Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) causes malignant catarrhal fever in cattle, pigs and deer. We have observed intact circular and linear OvHV-2 genomes in infected T cell lines derived from cows and rabbits. Bovine T cell lines were predominantly latently infected but rabbit T cell lines supported OvHV-2 productive cycle gene expression and virus capsids were demonstrated for the first time.

Sheep (Ovis aries) airway epithelial cells support ovine herpesvirus 2 lytic replication in vivo.

Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) is the causative agent of sheep-associated malignant catarrhal fever (SA-MCF), a frequently fatal disease of some members of the order Artiodactyla. OvHV-2 is carried as a lifelong subclinical infection in sheep (Ovis aries). To date OvHV-2 has not been propagated in vitro and this has hampered studies of viral pathogenesis and efforts to develop a vaccine to protec...

The human cytomegalovirus UL112-113 locus can activate the full Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus lytic replication cycle.

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection of a cell containing latent Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) results in the activation of KSHV lytic replication and the production of infectious virus. In this study, we examined the HCMV genes identified as having a role in the activation of HCMV early genes for their ability to activate KSHV lytic replication. It was found that the UL112-1...

Characterization of ovine herpesvirus 2-induced malignant catarrhal fever in rabbits.

Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is a frequently fatal lymphoproliferative disease syndrome primarily of ruminant species, caused by gammaherpesviruses in the genus Macavirus. Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), carried by sheep, causes sheep-associated MCF worldwide, while Alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1), carried by wildebeest, causes wildebeest-associated MCF, mainly in Africa. Diseases in rabbit...

Regulation of Epstein-Barr virus lytic cycle activation in malignant and nonmalignant disease.

Like all other herpesviruses, the oncogenic human gammaherpesvirus, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV; human herpesvirus 4) manifests two distinct phases in its life cycle: latency and lytic replication. During latency EBV expresses a limited number of viral genes that are involved in tasks such as stimulating cell proliferation, inhibiting apoptosis, blocking viral lytic replication, and assuring accura...

Hsp70 Isoforms Are Essential for the Formation of Kaposi’s Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Replication and Transcription Compartments

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is an oncogenic herpesvirus associated with various AIDS-related malignancies. Like other herpesviruses, multiple processes required for KSHV lytic replication, including viral transcription, viral DNA synthesis and capsid assembly occur in virus-induced intranuclear structures, termed replication and transcription compartments (RTCs). Here we util...
