Intranasal treatment with a novel immunomodulator mediates innate immune protection against lethal Pneumonia Virus of Mice.
… public health priority. Pneumonia virus of mice (PVM) causes similar clinical symptoms and disease in mice to those observed in RSV-infected patients, and therefore is used as a model for pathogenesis studies. Lethal PVM infection (i.e. 3000 pfu) in Balb/c mice is characterized by 20% weight loss …

The Role of GRA7, a Component in the ROP18 Protein Complex, in Toxoplasma gondii
… non-fusogenic parasitophorous vacuolar membrane (PVM), it cleverly resists lysosomal fusion. Despite this leverage, avirulent strains of Toxoplasma are cleared effectively from their host cells by the host's intrinsic cellular defenses. Forward genetic analysis has identified a virulence factor, …

Techniques to account for and reduce model inadequacy in ensemble-based filters
… Method (MMM) and Parametric Vector Method (PVM) to estimate this state-dependent sensitivity are introduced and investigated in the low-dimensional Ikeda and L63 systems. The MMM involves assimilating data independently into multiple models. PVM aims at obtaining the estimate given by MMM …

The Structure and Replication of a Parainfluenza Virus
… of SV5 were applied to pneumonia virus of mice (PVM), an unclassified virus whose structure had not been previously determined. PVM virions are spheres 80-120 mμ in diameter, or filaments of similar diameter with lengths up to 3 μ. The particles possess an outer, spike-covered envelope and …

A mouse model of childhood asthma: mechanisms of development and progression following an early-life respiratory viral infection
… infected with pneumonia virus of mice (PVM, which is a mouse-specific virus of the same family and genus as RSV). Following recovery, mice were intranasally sensitised with ovalbumin and challenged with a low level of aerosolised antigen for 4 weeks, followed by a single moderate-level …

Of Mice and Men and Cattle: Functions of the Pneumovirus Nonstructural Proteins NS1 and NS2 in Interferon Escape
… human RSV (HRSV) and of Pneumoniavirus of Mice (PVM) are also able to mediate IFN resistance in a similar manner. Furthermore, both BRSV NS proteins are able to block the induction of IFN by inhibiting the activation of interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3). As a result, BRSV is able to block …
