TLDR
Reovirus interaction with cell-surface receptors is a critical determinant of both cell-type specific tropism and virus-induced intracellular signaling events that culminate in cell death.

Generation of Genetically RGD σ1-Modified Oncolytic Reovirus That Enhances JAM-A-Independent Infection of Tumor Cells.

TL;DR: A reverse genetic approach was used to introduce an integrin-affinity peptide sequence into the MRV cell attachment protein σ1 to alter the natural tropism of the virus, and developed a reverse genetics system for MRV strain T3D-L, which showed high oncolytic potency.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative molecular force spectroscopy study of homophilic JAM-A interactions and JAM-A interactions with reovirus attachment protein sigma1.

TL;DR: A short bond lifetime imparts a highly dynamic nature to homophilic JAM‐A interactions for regulating tight junction permeability while stable interactions between σ1 and JAM•A likely anchor the virus to the cell surface and facilitate viral entry.

Targeting Norovirus: Strategies for the Discovery of New Antiviral Drugs

TL;DR: Viruses are responsible for the majority of cases of gastroenteritis with rotaviruses and noroviruses being the major pathogens.

Développement de procédés efficaces pour la construction et la production de vecteurs adénoviraux

David Gagnon
TL;DR: The goal of this thesis was to design a new transfer vector in which the PS expression was independent from the expression of the transgene in order to be able to optimize its expression independently.

The Biology of Endothelial Cell–Cell Lateral Junctions

TL;DR: This issue of Microcirculation explored mechanisms of paracellular and transcellular permeability and whether one or both mechanisms predominate in pathophysiological conditions such as inflammation or tumor angiogenesis remains unresolved.

Activators and target genes of Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors.

TL;DR: It is argued that NF-κB functions more generally as a central regulator of stress responses and pairing stress responsiveness and anti-apoptotic pathways through the use of a common transcription factor may result in increased cell survival following stress insults.

Isolation of a Common Receptor for Coxsackie B Viruses and Adenoviruses 2 and 5

TL;DR: Identification of CAR as a receptor for these two unrelated and structurally distinct viral pathogens is important for understanding viral pathogenesis and has implications for therapeutic gene delivery with adenovirus vectors.

The Immunological Synapse: A Molecular Machine Controlling T Cell Activation

TL;DR: Immunological synapse formation is now shown to be an active and dynamic mechanism that allows T cells to distinguish potential antigenic ligands and was a determinative event for T cell proliferation.

NF-κB is a target of AKT in anti-apoptotic PDGF signalling

TL;DR: A role for NF-κB in growth factor signalling is established and an anti-apoptotic Ras/PI(3)K/Akt/IKK/NF-κBs pathway is defined, thus linking anti-APoptotic signalling with transcription machinery.
