  1. 1. Early host cell interactions and antivirals against ocular adenoviruses

    Författare :Rickard Storm; Niklas Arnberg; Saw See Hong; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adenovirus; Virus host interactions; Antivirals; Sialic acid; Integrins; Epidemic keratoconjuntivitis;

    Sammanfattning : Viruses are common causative agents of ocular infection among humans. Epidemic keratoconjuntivitis (EKC) is a severe and contagious ocular disease with reported outbreaks worldwide. It is estimated that this disease affects 20-40 million individuals every year, which leads to huge socioeconomic costs for the affected countries. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Adenovirus species B interactions with CD46

    Författare :Dan Gustafsson; Ya-Fang Mei; Urs Greber; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Adenovirus 11; CD46; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Adenoviruses (Ad) are double-stranded (ds) DNA, non-enveloped viruses. There are seven species (A-G) of human Ads with 52 knownserotypes to date. Human Ads cause a broad range of pathologies, ranging from upper respiratory tract infections to persistent urinary tract infections. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Replication-competent adenovirus 11p vector as a new oncolytic agent

    Författare :Jim Silver; Ya-Fang Mei; Gunnel Halldén; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Virologi; Adenovirus; Vector; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Human adenoviruses (Ads) as vectors have been studied for cancer gene therapy for several decades due to their ability to shut down host cell replication and lyse tumour cells. Ad5 of species C is commonly used as a replication-defective or a replication-competent vector. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Mechanisms involved in adenovirus binding to and infection of host cells

    Författare :Cecilia Nyberg; Niklas Arnberg; Pierre Boulanger; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Adenovirus; binding; infection; lactoferrin; coagulation factor IX and X; fiber; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The adenovirus (Ad) family consists of 52 different human types, which are divided into seven species (A-G). Human Ads cause disease in the respiratory tract, lymphoid tissue, intestine, urinary tract, and/or in the eye. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Adenovirus-host interactions : implications for tropism and therapy

    Författare :Annasara Lenman; Niklas Arnberg; Lennart Svensson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adenoviridae; Amino Acids; Antiviral Agents; Epithelial Cells; Factor IX;

    Sammanfattning : Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are common viruses often associated withgastrointestinal, ocular and respiratory infections. They can infect a widevariety of cells, both dividing and non-dividing. HAdVs attach to and infecttarget cells through interactions with cellular receptors. LÄS MER
