Abstract Antigens driven by poxvirus late promoters are produced in much larger quantities than those driven by early promoters both in vitro and in vivo. Despite the abundance of protein produced, antigens driven by late poxvirus promoters typically induce a low or undetectable CD8+ T cell response following immunization in vivo, while those driven by early promoters induce a significant response. We show that antigen driven by late promoters is not expressed in primary dendritic cells, preventing induction of naïve CD8+ T cells via the direct presentation pathway. However, it is puzzling wh

Deletion, anergy, and a spectrum of functional impairments can affect virus-specific CD8 cells in chronic viral infections.

Although they do not appear to exert immunological pressure in vivo, these CD8 cells are not classically “tolerant” since they proliferate, lyse, and produce antiviral cytokines in vitro. They are characterized by altered HLA/peptide tetramer reactivity, which is not explained by TCR down-regulatio

SUMMARY Simian virus 40 (SV40) is a small DNA tumor virus that has been extensively characterized due to its relatively simple genetic organization and the ease with which its genome is manipulated. The large and small tumor antigens (T antigens) are the major regulatory proteins encoded by SV40. Large T antigen is responsible for both viral and cellular transcriptional regulation, virion assembly, viral DNA replication, and alteration of the cell cycle. Deciphering how a single protein can perform such numerous and diverse functions has remained elusive. Recently it was established that the S

Abstract:
We studied medical records and endomyocardial biopsies of patients with morphological confirmed lymphocytic myocarditis. The patients were divided into two groups: 1 - patients with arrhythmias; group 2 - patients with predominance syndrome heart failure. Morphological verification of myocarditis was based on World Heart Federation Consensus definition of Inflammatory Cardiomyopathy, 1997. Immunohistological study was performed to identify antigens of cardiotrophic viruses. We revealed some features in topic and character of morphological changes in depending on clinical scenario of myocarditi

Here we offer a perspective on recent findings of persistent SARS-CoV-2 antigens in Long COVID1 through the lens of immunogenetic risk and protection, namely in the context of the fundamental role of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) in eliminating viral infections. Specifically, we attribute the persistence of viral antigens to the lack or weak protection conferred by HLA against SARS-CoV-2 in individuals carrying HLA alleles with low binding affinities to the virus. We suggest that determining the HLA Class I and II makeup of Long COVID patients will provide valuable new information in elucidati

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Phosphorylation of simian virus 40 large tumor (T) antigen on threonine 124 is essential for viral DNA replication. A mutant T antigen (T124A), in which this threonine was replaced by alanine, has helicase activity, assembles double hexamers on viral-origin DNA, and locally distorts the origin DNA structure, but it cannot catalyze origin DNA unwinding. A class of T-antigen mutants with single-amino-acid substitutions in the DNA binding domain (class 4) has remarkably similar properties, although these proteins are phosphorylated on threonine 124, as we show here.

Abstract:
Viruses use a range of sophisticated strategies to evade detection by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) within host cells. Beyond elaborating dedicated viral proteins that disrupt the MHC class I antigen-presentation machinery, some viruses possess intrinsic, cis-acting genome-encoded elements that interfere with antigen processing and display. These protein features, including G-quadruplex motifs, repetitive peptide sequences, and rare-codon usage, counterintuitively limit production of proteins critical to virus survival, particularly during latency. By slowing viral protein synthesis, these fe

The deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus, has been identified as the primary reservoir host for SNV. To understand SNV infection of P. maniculatus, we examined wild deer mice for localization of viral antigens and nucleic acid. Morphologic examination consistently revealed septal edema within lung tissue and mononuclear cell infiltrates in portal areas of the liver.

Tissue-resident memory (Trm) CD8+ T cells are functionally distinct from their circulating counterparts and are potent mediators of host protection against reinfection. Whether local recognition of antigen in nonlymphoid tissues during infection can impact the formation of Trm populations remains unresolved. Using skin infections with vaccinia virus (VacV)–expressing model antigens, we found that local antigen recognition had a profound impact on Trm formation. Activated CD8+ T cells trafficked to VacV-infected skin in an inflammation-dependent, but antigen-independent, manner. However, after

Abstract Antigen derived from virus infections such as influenza and Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) can persist well beyond the natural rise and fall of the adaptive immune response against the infection. Antigen can similarly persist following both viral Vaccinia challenge and subunit vaccination. Surprisingly, persisting antigen from either Vaccinia or subunit vaccination is captured and maintained by a stromal cell subset: Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (LECs). The duration of antigen persistence is directly correlated with antigen dose and pattern recognition receptor (PRR) activation. PRR

Background: Low-level, chronic viral infections have been suspect in the development of select autoimmune diseases, including primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). Multiple studies have shown stimulation of antiviral response pathways in pSS tissues suggestive of a viral infection. Yet, with this data in hand, a causal link between a viral infection and development of pSS had not been identified. Therefore, a study was designed to further define the viral landscape within pSS-affected salivary gland tissue to identify potential viral-mediated triggers in the pathogenesis of this autoimmune disease

ABSTRACT Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen-presenting cells that hold promise as cell-based therapeutic vaccines for infectious diseases and cancer. Ideally, DC would be engineered to express autologous viral or tumor antigens to ensure the presentation of relevant antigens to host T cells in vivo; however, expression of wild-type viral genes in primary cell lines can be problematic. Nucleofection is an effective means of delivering transgenes to primary cell lines, but its use in transfecting DNA or mRNA into DC has not been widely investigated.
