Beschreibung:
Latent infections with periodic reactivation are a common outcome after acute infection with many viruses. The latency-associated transcript (LAT) gene is required for wild-type reactivation of herpes simplex virus (HSV). However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In rabbit trigeminal ganglia, extensive apoptosis occurred with LAT(-) virus but not with LAT(+) viruses. In addition, a plasmid expressing LAT blocked apoptosis in cultured cells. Thus, LAT promotes neuronal survival after HSV-1 infection by reducing apoptosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perng, G C -- Jones, C -- Ciacci-Zanella, J -- Stone, M -- Henderson, G -- Yukht, A -- Slanina, S M -- Hofman, F M -- Ghiasi, H -- Nesburn, A B -- Wechsler, S L -- EY07566/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- EY11629/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Feb 25;287(5457):1500-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Ophthalmology Research Laboratories, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Burns & Allen Research Institute, 8700 Beverly Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90048, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10688801" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
