Virally encoded interleukin-6 (vIL-6) coordinates with human IL-6 to modulate cytokine expression during KSHV infection

Yahaira Bermudez, Samantha Schultz, Jacob Miles, Will Dwyer, Mandy Muller

This study shows that viral IL-6 (vIL-6) and human IL-6 work together to influence cytokine expression and immune responses during KSHV infection.

IL-6 Evades KSHV-Mediated Hyperadenylation repression via CRM1-Dependent Nuclear Export.

Samantha Schultz, Jacob Miles, Will Dwyer, Daniel Macveigh-Fierro, Mandy Muller

The paper shows that IL-6 mRNA escapes KSHV-induced nuclear retention via CRM1-dependent export, bypassing SOX-mediated decay and maintaining cytoplasmic stability.
