  1. 6. Norovirus, causative agent of winter vomiting disease, exploits several histo-blood group glycans for adhesion

    Författare :Gustaf E Rydell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :norovirus; glycobiology; virus-like particle; FUT2; ABO H histo-blood group antigen; sialyl Lewis x; neoglycoprotein; glycosphingolipid; QCM-D; supported lipid bilayer;

    Sammanfattning : Norovirus is recognized as the major cause of outbreaks of gastroenteritis world-wide, yet no vaccines or drugs are available for prevention or treatment of the virus infection. Challenge studies and binding studies using virus-like particles (VLPs) have suggested susceptibility to norovirus infection to be associated with secretor status. LÄS MER

  3. 7. On morbidity and mortality in novovirus infection

    Författare :Lars Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; norovirus; mortality; lactate; viral shedding; CCL5; rectal swab;

    Sammanfattning : Norovirus causes epidemic gastroenteritis. The extent of excess mortality related to norovirus infections is not established and factors that influence the duration of viral shedding have not been determined. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Transmission of Infectious Bioaerosols : Sources, transport and prevention strategies for airborne viruses and bacteria

    Författare :Malin Alsved; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioaerosol; infectious disease; Norovirus; Airborne bacteria; aerosols;

    Sammanfattning : Infectious diseases that can be transmitted via air often spread rapidly, sometimes causing large epidemic and pandemic outbreaks. As an increasing number of people live in crowded urban environments, and with frequent and long-distance traveling across the world, infectious diseases can spread even faster. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Computational analysis of oligosaccharide conformations – methodological development, applied studies, and design of glycomimetics

    Författare :Francesco Strino; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; histo-blood group antigens; Burkholderia cepacia; genetic algorithms; norovirus; selenoglycosides; sugar conformations; thioglycosides; saccharide conformations;

    Sammanfattning : Carbohydrates are the most abundant class of biomolecules. Besides their roles as structural elements and energy storage, they are involved in signaling and recognition processes. Their functions and activities depend on their preferred conformations. LÄS MER

  7. 10. On gastrointestinal viral infections

    Författare :Thomas Beck-Friis; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; norovirus; rotavirus; SARS-CoV-2; gastroenteritis; diagnosis; elderly; epidemiology; humidity; COVID-19; genomic structural variation;

    Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal viral infections cause considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. Many factors influencing clinical presentation, disease severity, epidemiology, and transmission are not fully understood. LÄS MER
