2010-11-05ZeitschriftenartikelA novel adenovirus of Western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) Adenoviruses (AdV) broadly infect vertebrate hosts including a variety of primates. We identified a novel AdV in the feces of captive gorillas by isolation in cell culture, electron microscopy and PCR. From the supernatants ...

2010-11-03ZeitschriftenartikelAfrican great apes are naturally infected with polyomaviruses closely related to Merkel cell polyomavirus The oncogenic Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) infects humans worldwide, but little is known about the occurrence of viruses related to MCPyV in the closest phylogenetic relatives of humans, great apes. We analyzed samples ...

2007-09-06ZeitschriftenartikelDiscovery of herpesviruses in multi-infected primates using locked nucleic acids (LNA) and a bigenic PCR approach Targeting the highly conserved herpes DNA polymerase (DPOL) gene with PCR using panherpes degenerate primers is a powerful tool to universally detect unknown herpesviruses. However, vertebrate hosts are often infected with ...

2009-02-16ZeitschriftenartikelNo in vivo infection of triple immunosuppressed non-human primates after inoculation with high titers of porcine endogenous retroviruses Background: Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) released from pig tissue can infect selected human cells in vitro and therefore represent a safety risk for xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues, or organs. ...

2011-08-10ZeitschriftenartikelNovel adenoviruses in wild primates: a high level of genetic diversity and evidence of zoonotic transmissions. Adenoviruses (AdVs) broadly infect vertebrate hosts, including a variety of nonhuman primates (NHPs). In the present study, we identified AdVs in NHPs living in their natural habitats, and through the combination of ...
