Disease relevance of Tropism

 

Psychiatry related information on Tropism

  • To investigate the contribution of IFN to MV tropism in nonleporine cells, primary human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were tested for permissiveness to MV infection [6].
  • To establish the in vivo cellular tropism of human T-cell leukemia virus type II (HTLV-II) in peripheral blood, subpopulations of mononuclear cells isolated from patients with a history of drug abuse and with high proviral load were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction for the presence of the proviral sequences [7].
 

High impact information on Tropism

  • Our results indicate a novel role for the G domain of LN-2 in infection and reveal a model in which a host-derived bridging molecule determines nerve tropism of a pathogen [8].
  • The tropism of AAV-5 in vivo also correlated with the expression pattern of PDGFR-alpha [9].
  • Polar transport of the phytohormone auxin mediates various processes in plant growth and development, such as apical dominance, tropisms, vascular patterning and axis formation [10].
  • The tropism of AAV2 might be changed by genetically introducing a ligand peptide into the viral capsid, thereby redirecting the binding of AAV2 to other cellular receptors [11].
  • Heparan sulfate and viral tropism [12].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Tropism

 

Biological context of Tropism

  • We propose that at least one determinant for mononuclear phagocyte tropism involves target cell interactions with regions of gp120 distinct from the CD4-binding domain [18].
  • Here, we studied evolution of tropism for CD45RA(+) and CD45RO(+) CD4(+) cells, coreceptor usage, and molecular phylogeny of coexisting NSI and SI HIV-1 clones that were isolated from four patients in the period spanning SI conversion [19].
  • The keratinocyte-dependent enhancer is likely to contribute to the epithelial cell tropism of HPV-16, and may direct persistent E6-E7 gene transcription in response to cellular factors in cervical carcinoma cells in which the viral E2 genes are inactive [20].
  • Prior studies have determined that the localization of virus in different cell types in the brain (tropism) is a property of the viral hemagglutinin, the product of the S1 RNA genome segment [21].
  • We conclude that the intrinsic fusion selectivity of env plays a major role in the tropism of a HIV-1 isolate for infection of CD4+ T-cell lines vs. primary macrophages, presumably by determining the selectivity of virus entry and cell fusion [22].
 

Anatomical context of Tropism

 

Associations of Tropism with chemical compounds

  • Disease tropism of c-erbB: effects of carboxyl-terminal tyrosine and internal mutations on tissue-specific transformation [28].
  • JCV has a restricted cell tropism that is caused partly by the initial interaction between the virus and sialic acid-containing host cell receptors [29].
  • Interestingly, the differential expression of the C1 factors in both human and mouse tissues may be important for the determination of HSV tissue tropism in these two organisms [30].
  • Role for a secreted cysteine proteinase in the establishment of host tissue tropism by group A streptococci [31].
  • The need for additional transforming events, suggested by the low incidence of spontaneous tumors, was further indicated by the high susceptibility of the transgenic animals to injections of low doses of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, a chemical carcinogen with a thymic tropism [32].
 

Gene context of Tropism

  • Our results suggest that structural features of the HIV-1 envelope linked to CCR5 tropism could confer a selective advantage in vivo [33].
  • We propose that dual tropism may evolve in CCR5-restricted HIV-1 strains through acquisition of the ability to utilize the first and second extracellular loops of CXCR4 while retaining the ability to interact with the CCR5 amino-terminal domain [34].
  • We hypothesized that H. pylori interacting with TFF1 could explain the tropism of this bacteria for gastric tissue [35].
  • The highly conserved nature of EFNB2 in humans and animals is consistent with the broad tropism exhibited by these emerging zoonotic viruses [36].
  • Human immunodeficiency virus, type I (HIV-1) cell-type tropism is dictated by chemokine receptor usage: T-cell line tropic viruses use CXCR4, whereas monocyte tropic viruses primarily use CCR5 as fusion coreceptors [37].
