Download or read book Alphaherpesviruses written by Sandra Knowles Weller and published by Caister Academic Press Limited. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alphaherpesviruses are a fascinating group of DNA viruses that includes important human pathogens such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), HSV-2, and varicella-zoster virus (VZV): the causative agents of cold sores, genital ulcerous disease, and chickenpox/shingles, respectively. A key attribute of these viruses is their ability to establish lifelong latent infection in the peripheral nervous system of the host. Such persistence requires subversion of the host's immune system and intrinsic antiviral defense mechanisms. Understanding the mechanisms of the immune evasion and what triggers viral reactivation is a major challenge for today's researchers. This has prompted enormous research efforts into understanding the molecular and cellular biology of these viruses. This up-to-date and comprehensive volume aims to distill the most important research in this area providing a timely overview of the field. Topics covered include: transcriptional regulation, DNA replication, translational control, virus entry and capsid assembly, the role of microRNAs in infection and oncolytic vectors for cancer therapy. In addition there is coverage of virus-host interactions, including apoptosis, subversion of host protein quality control and DNA damage response pathways, autophagy, establishment and reactivation from latency, interferon responses, immunity and vaccine development. Essential reading for everyone working with alphaherpesviruses and of interest to all virologists working on latent infections.

Download or read book Development of a Temporary Barrier System for Off road Applications written by Kenneth H. Addink and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The safety shape portable concrete barrier (PCB) has been approved for use when placed on a bituminous or concrete pad. Construction personnel would like to use PCBs in temporary situations along roadways where the use of a bituminous or concrete pad is impractical and costly. However, when PCBs are placed on soil foundations with no anchorage, they tend to dig into the soil, causing the barrier sections to rotate or overturn. The objective of this research was to develop a device which will allow temporary PCBs placed on soil foundations to translate without significant rotation when impacted by errant vehicles. This device was developed and successfully tested to Test Level 3 of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report No. 350.
