  2. 1. Evolution of human alpha-herpesviruses

    Author : Peter Norberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HSV-1; HSV-2; VZV; evolution; recombination; phylogenetic analysis;

    Abstract : Herpesviridae is a large virus family with more than 100 members, which are highly disseminated among animals. Three sub-families have been classified; alpha-herpesviruses, beta-herpesviruses and gamma-herpesviruses. READ MORE

  4. 2. 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

  5. 3. Herpesvirus-induced expression of sLe(x) and related O-linked glycans in the infected cell

    Author : Kristina Nyström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HSV-1; CMV; VZV; O-linked glycans; Lewis antigens; ICP0;

    Abstract : Lewis antigens constitute a family of fucosylated carbohydrate antigens (glycotopes), involved in leukocyte homing and related immunological phenomena. These glycotopes are only expressed restrictedly in normal cells, but are induced at appropriate occasions. It is well established that many tumors ?hijack? Lewis glycotopes for e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Herpesvirus Infection and Immunity in Neurocognitive Disorders

    Author : Gabriel Westman; Britt-Marie Eriksson; Martin Ingelsson; Olle Korsgren; Jan Ernerudh; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; Herpes simplex encephalitis; Herpesvirus; Cytomegalovirus; CMV; HSV-1; HHV-6; CD8 T-cells; Cellular immunity; Immunosenescence; Autoimmunity; NMDA receptor; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Herpesviruses have co-speciated with several vertebrate and invertebrate animals throughout the history of evolution. In the immunocompetent human host, primary infection is usually benign, whereafter the virus is brought into life-long latency. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mechanisms for control of nucleoside triphosphate hydrolysis. Effects of DNA and RNA co-factors

    Author : Bertil Macao; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : ATPase; GTPase; SRP; Ffh; FtsY; SRP RNA; OBP; UL9; oriS; oriS*; HSV-1; helicase.;

    Abstract : In energetically unfavourable biological processes "protein machines" utilize chemical energy from the hydrolysis of high-energy phosphate bonds. Thus, the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) to nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) with the release of free orthophosphate results in a liberation of energy. READ MORE
