Grover P, Murata M, Kidiga M, Hayashi S, Ode H, Iwatani Y, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39903679
Background: Spontaneous remission once a retroviral infection has been established does not occur and infection persists lifelong. Methods: Stored blood samples obtained from simian T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (STLV-1)-infected...

Iwatani Y, Matsuoka K, Ode H, Kubota M, Nakata Y, Setoyama Y, et al.
mBio . 2025 Jan; 16(3):e0333224. PMID: 39835817
The human cellular cytidine deaminases APOBEC3s (A3s) inhibit virion infectivity factor (Vif)-deficient HIV-1 replication. However, virus-encoded Vifs abolish this defense system by specifically recruiting A3s to an E3 ubiquitin ligase...

Ode H, Matsuda M, Shigemi U, Mori M, Yamamura Y, Nakata Y, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 May; 14(1):12099. PMID: 38802662
HIV-1 drug resistance genotypic tests have primarily been performed by Sanger sequencing of gene segments encoding different drug target proteins. Since the number of targets has increased with the addition...

Aboshi M, Matsuda K, Kawakami D, Kono K, Kazami Y, Sekida T, et al.
iScience . 2024 Feb; 27(2):108964. PMID: 38352232
Continuing emergence of variants of concern resulting in reduced SARS-CoV-2 vaccine efficacy necessitates additional prevention strategies. The structure of VLPCOV-01, a lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated, self-amplifying RNA COVID-19 vaccine with a comparable...
