Sphingolipidomics: An Important Mechanistic Tool for Studying Fungal Pathogens.

abstract：:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated for their involvement in virus biology and pathogenesis, including functioning as key determinants of virally-induced cancers. As an important oncogenic α-herpesvirus affecting poultry health, Marek's disease virus serotype 1 [Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2)] induces rapid-...
