Excited to share our new paper @elife. Great work by Miri Shnayder and Aharon Nachshon showing that HCMV drives latently infected hematopoietic cells towards a weaker immune-responsive state. https://t.co/jVVCAH8A6U
elifesciences.org
Single-cell and bulk expression analyses reveal that HCMV latent infection drives cells towards a weaker immune-responsive state, which is important for its expression and reactivation.

Great new work from @VZVCMVlab PhD student @ChelseaGerada1!
Thrilled to get my paper accepted into #JVirol today! I characterised granzyme B cleavage of some #HSV and #VZV proteins and related this to the ability to inhibit #NKcell cytotoxicity #phdchat #AcademicChatter
