  1. 1. Polyomavirus infections in humans

    Författare :Annika Lundstig; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Polyomaviruses; tumour virology; BK virus; neuroblastoma; maternal infection; Real Time PCR; enzyme immunoassay; seroprevalence; JC virus; SV40; virus like particles VLPs ; seroepidemiology; biobank; mesothelioma tissues; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The human polyomaviruses BKV and JCV are endemic and infect > 70% of population worldwide. Primary infections occur during childhood and are largely subclinical. Following primary infection, both viruses persist as latent infections in the kidneys and B lymphocytes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Pseudovirions in the Study of Papilloma- and Polyomaviruses

    Författare :Helena Faust; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human papilloma- and polyomaviruses; pseudovirions; serology;

    Sammanfattning : The papilloma- and polyomaviruses are small DNA viruses that infect humans. Some members of these virus families can cause cancer in experimental animals and some are also established as carcinogenic to humans. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Studies on polyomaviruses in humans : in relation to haematopoietic stem cell transplantation and cancer

    Författare :Géraldine Giraud; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The simultaneous discovery of two polyomaviruses in humans in 1971, BK and JC viruses (BKV and JCV), initiated the research on polyomaviruses in relation to human diseases. This has now been intensified with the consecutive discoveries, the last three years, of three new family members, KI, WU and Merkel cell polyomaviruses (KIPyV, WUPyV and MCPyV). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Studies on human polyomavirus infection in immunosuppressed patients with polyoma related tumors

    Författare :Peter Priftakis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Polyomaviruses are potentially oncogenic viruses, found in humans, in other mammals and in birds all over the world. The polyomaviruses that have been observed in humans are BK virus (BKV) and JC virus (JCV) as well as the primate polyomavirus Simian Virus 40 (SV40). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Vaccination against Her2/neu : expressing cancer using chimeric virus-like particles

    Författare :Kalle Andreasson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Thanks to the development of vaccines, children are these days protected against infectious diseases like polio, diphtheria and tetanus simply by receiving a few injections. Imagine a scenario where these injections would also result in protection against cancer. LÄS MER
