Herpesviruses infect virtually all humans and establish lifelong latency and reactivate to
infect other humans. Latency requires multiple functions: maintaining the herpesvirus …

MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in the regulation of gene
expression during cellular processes. The host-encoded miRNAs are known to modulate the …

One of the most significant recent advances in biomedical research has been the discovery
of the∼ 22-nt-long class of noncoding RNAs designated microRNAs (miRNAs). These …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are the subject of enormous interest. They are small non-coding
RNAs that play a regulatory role in numerous and diverse cellular processes such as …

The study of miRNAs started in 1993, when Lee et al. observed their involvement in the
downregulation of a crucial protein known as LIN-14 in the nematode Caenorhabditis …

Herpes simplex virus type 1 is a neurotropic herpesvirus that establishes latency within
sensory neurones. Following primary infection, the virus replicates productively within …

Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, and their replication requires host cell functions.
Although the size, composition, complexity, and functions encoded by their genomes are …

Viruses such as coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) are entirely host cell-dependent parasites.
Indeed, they must cleverly exploit various compartments of host cells to complete their life …

The closely related microRNA (miRNA) and RNAi pathways have emerged as important
regulators of virus–host cell interactions. Although both pathways are relatively well …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs important in gene regulation. They are
able to regulate mRNA translation through base-pair complementarity. Cellular miRNAs …
