  2. 1. Functional aspects on the Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 5

    Author : Martin Dufva; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epstein-Barr Virus; EBV; B-cell; transformation; cDNA array; polyadenylation; transcription; cell cycle; apoptosis; two-hybrid system.;

    Abstract : The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects resting B-cells. This leads to an EBV driven transformation of the resting B-cell into a cell with an activated B-cell phenotype that proliferates indefinitely in vitro. Epstein-Barr Nuclear antigen 5 (EBNA5) is one out of six EBV encoded protein involved in transformation of resting B-cell. READ MORE

  4. 2. Characterization of Epstein-Barr virus non-coding RNAs in infected cells

    Author : Guojiang Xie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; EBV; EBV-associated malignancies; viral gene expression pattern; RPMS1; EBERs; single-cell sequencing; ChIRP; immune evasion; protein synthesis;

    Abstract : Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes multiple types of lymphoid and epithelial malignancies. Unraveling the viral gene expression patterns in tumors and identifying interaction partners between EBV and host elements is crucial for understanding EBV tumorigenesis. READ MORE

  5. 3. Human Papilloma Virus, Epstein-Barr Virus, and Herpes Simplex Virus Type-1 in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinomas from Three Populations

    Author : Jamshid Jalouli; Jan-Michaél Hirsch; Tina Dalianis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HPV; EBV; HSV; Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma; Leukoplakia; Oral Lichen Planus; Oral Submucuos Fibrosis; Toombak; Betel quid; Snuff; Oncology; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Abstract : Most oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is believed to develop via a multistep process of cumulative gene damage in epithelial cells. Increasing incidence of OSCC and evidence that traditional risk factors may not be responsible directed us to investigate the prevalence of virus in pre- and malignant samples. READ MORE

  6. 4. Oral cancer with special reference to virus detection and quantitative gene expression

    Author : Miranda Shojaeian Jalouli; Lars Sand; Jan Hirsch; Torbjörn Ramqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HPV; EBV; HSV-1; Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma; Leukoplakia; apopto-sis; cell cycle regulation; intermediate filament proteins.; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Abstract : Background. Head and neck cancers (HNC) are among the most common malignancies worldwide, and about 90–92% of oral neoplasias are oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). Alcohol and tobacco consumption have been recognized as the main risk factors for OSCC development. READ MORE

  7. 5. Herpes virus retinitis - clinical and virological characteristics

    Author : Joanna von Hofsten; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cytomegalovirus retinitis; acute retinal necrosis; varicella zoster virus; herpes simplex virus;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we first aimed to determine whether there may be herpes virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the aqueous humour of asymptomatic individuals (paper II). Presence of herpes simplex virus (HSV), varicella zoster virus (VZV), cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein Barr virus (EBV) in aqueous humour was measured by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in patients eligible for cataract surgery.
