Herpesviruses and their host cells: a successful liaison

Adler, Barbara, Sattler, Christine, Adler, Heiko·2017·Trends in Microbiology

Abstract

During a long history of coevolution, herpesviruses have reached a fine-tuned balance with their hosts, allowing them to successfully persist and spread to new hosts without causing too much damage. Only under certain circumstances, as in neonates or immunocompromised individuals, they may cause serious diseases. The delicate balance between herpesviruses and their hosts results from interactions of a great variety of viral and cellular factors which together shape the tropism for a particular host, tissue, or cell. Understanding these interactions will provide insight into the viral life cycle and cell biology in general. Moreover, it will also facilitate comprehension of herpesvirus pathogenesis, enabling the development of new strategies to combat herpesviruses in cases where they cause disease.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The portal of entry is not the ultimate goal of herpesviruses, and they need to travel through either blood or nerve to their preferred tissues where they can establish latency or induce disease.

    “The portal of entry is not the ultimate goal of herpesviruses, and they need to travel (through either blood or nerve) to their preferred tissues where they can establish latency or induce disease (Adler et al., 2017).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
