1. Arsenic Influences Virus Replication in Experimental Coxsackievirus B3 Infection
Abstract : Trace elements are essential for the host defence against infections, and during common infections, the balance of trace elements is changed in serum and tissues. Supplementation with selenium (Se), an essential trace element, is known to decrease the severity of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) infection in mice. READ MORE

2. Coxsackievirus B3 Infection and Host Defence Responses Change the Metabolism of PBDE
Abstract : It has been suggested that the rising amounts of chemicals in the environment may affect host resistance and increase susceptibility to infections. Studies have also shown that infections can change the toxicity of pollutants. READ MORE

3. Interactions between the environmental pollutant 2,3,7,8- tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and coxsackievirus infection : Experimental studies in mice
Abstract : This thesis focuses on the interactions between 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and infection. A model of human coxsackievirus type B3 (CB3) infection, adapted to A/J mice, was used.The effects on some immune cell populations and host resistance to CB3 infection were studied immediately after TCDD exposure and 3 months later.

4. Biochemical and structural studies of proteins supporting the genome replication of enteroviruses and Giardia intestinalis
Abstract : The Enterovirus genus of the Picornaviridae family includes non-enveloped, positive-sense single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses. This genus of viruses causes many diseases such as poliomyelitis by poliovirus (PV), cardiomyopathy by coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), common cold by rhinoviruses (RVs) and meningitis by Enterovirus 71 (EV 71).
