Adenovirus type 2 DNA was hybridized to early mRNA isolated from the cytoplasm of infected cells prior to the initiation of viral DNA synthesis. Resulting R loops were visualized in the electron microscope, and their positions were oriented with the help of DNA fragments generated by digestion with the restriction endonuclease BamHI. Early RNA was found to map (in order of relative R-loop frequency) with midpoints near positions 0.95, 0.80, 0.03, 0.65, and 0.09 on the conventional adenovirus map. The time of appearance of individual viral mRNA's was compared to the time course of viral protein and DNA synthesis. We present a refined map of adenovirus gene functions which is based on results documented in this and the accompanying study by Meyer et al. (1977), as well as on data published by other laboratories.

Background And Aims: Patients with very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD), with an age of onset < 6 years, can present with severe manifestations and may require biologic therapy. Infliximab and adalimumab are approved for induction and maintenance in pediatric IBD patients but are licensed only above the age of 6 years. Effectiveness and safety data on adalimumab in this patient population are lacking.

Viral vector delivery of gene therapy represents a promising approach for the treatment of numerous retinal diseases. Adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV) constitute the primary gene delivery platform; however, their limited cargo capacity restricts the delivery of several clinically relevant retinal genes. In this study, we explore the feasibility of employing high-capacity adenoviral vectors (HC-AdVs) as alternative delivery vehicles, which, with a capacity of up to 36 kb, can potentially accommodate all known retinal gene coding sequences.

Unlabelled: The tonsils have been identified as a site of replication for Epstein-Barr virus, adenovirus, human papillomavirus, and other respiratory viruses. Human tonsil epithelial cells (HTECs) are a heterogeneous group of actively differentiating cells. Here, we investigated the cellular features and susceptibility of differentiated HTECs to specific influenza viruses, including expression of avian-type and mammalian-type sialic acid (SA) receptors, viral replication dynamics, and the associated cytokine secretion profiles.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have become a leading platform for gene delivery. A major portion of gene therapy currently in clinical trials are AAV-based for a wide range of diseases. A commonly used method for AAV production is by mammalian or insect cell culture, with or without added viruses to introduce needed genetic elements for AAV production.

Background: Understanding the interference patterns of respiratory viruses could be important for shedding light on potential strategies to combat these human infectious agents.
Objective: To investigate the possible interactions between adenovirus type 2 (AdV2), severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza A/H1N1 pandemic (H1N1pdm09) using the A549 cell line.
Methods: Single infections, co-infections, and superinfections (at 3 and 24 h after the first virus infection) were performed by varying the multiplicity of infection (MOI).
