Journal Article
Tarlinton, R. E., Martynova, E., Rizvanov, A., Khaiboullina, S., & Verma, S. (2020). Role of Viruses in the Pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis. Viruses, 12(6), 643. https://doi.org/10.3390/v12060643

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an immune inflammatory disease, where the underlying etiological cause remains elusive. Multiple triggering factors have been suggested, including environmental, genetic and gender components. However, underlying infectious...

Novel insights into viral infection and oncogenesis from Koala Retrovirus (KoRV) infection of HEK293T cells (2020)
Journal Article
Sarker, N., Tarlinton, R., Owen, H., David Emes, R., Seddon, J., Simmons, G., & Meers, J. (2020). Novel insights into viral infection and oncogenesis from Koala Retrovirus (KoRV) infection of HEK293T cells. Gene, 733, Article 144366. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gene.2020.144366

Koala retrovirus is thought to be an underlying cause of high levels of neoplasia and immunosuppression in koalas. While epidemiology studies suggest a strong link between KoRV and disease it has been difficult to prove causality because of the compl...
