Viruses Attack Mitochondria to Travel and Spread Within the Nervous System

[Inara]

Didn't find it elsewhere:

Observed for the first time in neurons, biologists from Princeton University documented common strains of the herpes virus indirectly taking control of a cell’s mitochondria. The researchers believe that the viruses then commandeer the proteins that mitochondria typically use to move so they can then freely travel and proliferate in the nervous system.

I've just realized the publication and article are from 2012:
https://www.cell.com/cell-host-microbe/fulltext/S1931-3128(12)00104-7
(Kramer, Engquist).

Maybe still interesting for "ME newbies" (like myself)?

And what did become of it?
