Mashup Score: 0Indirect CD4+ T cell protection against mouse gamma-herpesvirus infection via interferon gamma | Journal of Virology - 11 day(s) ago
CD4+ T cells are critical for the control of gamma-herpesvirus infection; they act indirectly, by recruiting natural killer (NK) cells to attack infected target cells. Here, we report that the CD4+ T cell/NK cell axis of gamma-herpesvirus control requires …

Mashup Score: 2COVID-19 and Asthma Onset in Children - 13 day(s) ago
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:. Respiratory viral infections increase risk of asthma in infants and children. Infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus can cause severe lung inflammation and prolonged respiratory symptoms. We sought to determine whether SARS-CoV-2 infection modified pediatric incident asthma risk.METHODS:. This retrospective cohort study…
