The amplitude of gammaherpesvirus lytic replication dictates adaptive immune activation: Potential implications for KSHV LANA in immune evasion

Steven J. Murdock, Shana M. Owens, Darby G. Oldenburg, James Craig Forrest

This study shows that KSHV LANA suppresses lytic replication in MHV68, reducing adaptive immune activation, suggesting immune evasion through subthreshold viral replication.
