  1. 11. Functions of glycoprotein G of herpes simplex virus type 2

    Författare :Staffan Görander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Herpes simplex virus type 2; glycoprotein G-2; type specific serology; vaccine; Tanzania;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common sexually transmitted infection with more than 500 million individuals infected world-wide. A major global health problem is that HSV-2 infection facilitates the spread of HIV. This epidemiological situation warrants the development of a vaccine to reduce the spread of HSV-2. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Unraveling the molecular mechanisms of herpes simplex virus attachment and release using cell membrane mimics

    Författare :Nadia Peerboom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy; glycosaminoglycans; atomic force microscopy; binding kinetics; single particle tracking; herpes simplex virus;

    Sammanfattning : The herpes simplex virus is a widespread human pathogen, most commonly known for causing cold sores. Its infection cycle is initiated with the formation of multiple bonds between viral glycoproteins and cellular glycosaminoglycans, which are long polysaccharide chains found close to the cell surface.

  4. 13. Herpes Simplex Virus 1 DNA replication and its role in recombination and transcription

    Författare :Ka-Wei Tang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Herpes Simplex Virus 1; DNA replication; DNA recombination; Transcription;

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is one of nine different herpesvirus infecting man. They are all capable of establishing a life-long latent state following the primary infection. HSV-1 as well as other herpesviruses may reactivate from the latent state and give rise to a productive infection with clinical symptoms or asymptomatic shedding. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Glycoprotein G of Herpes simplex virus type 2. Antigenicity and genetic variability

    Författare :Jan-Åke Liljeqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Herpes simplex virus type 2; glycoprotein G; antigenic regions; sequence variability;

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) causes genital lesions, meningitis and occasionally, severe neonatal infections. Globally HSV-2 infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Innate and acquired immunity to herpes simplex virus type 2 glycoprotein G in humans

    Författare :Lars Bellner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :herpes simplex virus type 2; glycoprotein G-2; T-cell proliferation; Th1 cytokines; phagocytes; NK cells; reactive oxygen species; formyl peptide receptors;

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a sexually transmitted pathogen that infects the human genital tract mucosa and is the most common cause of genital ulcer disease in humans. The infection exhibits a broad clinical spectrum, ranging from severe recurrent episodes of genital herpes to being completely asymptomatic. LÄS MER
