In this Editorial from Future Virology the authors discuss maternal immunization as a strategy for preventing neonatal HSV infection.
Scientists have revealed that a human protein – identified as YTHDF2 – could prevent cancer by restricting the human herpes virus 8, otherwise known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.
Elucidating the effects of virus infections on the biological activity of stem cells may help improve the safety and efficacy of clinical stem cell transplantations. This study explores the underlying influence of HSV type-1 (HSV-1) infection on the energy metabolism of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs).
Michael Pender discusses promising interim findings from a Phase 1 study investigating a novel treatment for multiple sclerosis based on the realtionship with Epstein–Barr virus.
