Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Eileen Deharo"
- Eileen deHaro's research primarily focuses on the immunological and virological implications of simian varicella virus (SVV) reactivation in rhesus macaques, particularly in response to immunosuppression and environmental stress.
- Significant findings include the characterization of T cell dynamics before and during SVV reactivation, highlighting the role of PD-1 expression and identifying cellular immune responses that correlate with reduced viral load following SIV challenge.
- Her work also emphasizes the importance of properly timed necropsy and tissue processing in studying viral latency and gene expression, contributing to the understanding of vaccine efficacy and infectious disease interactions in nonhuman primate models.
