16. Anti-herpes simplex virus activities of sulfomannan oligosaccharide PI-88 and disulfated cyclitols
Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus (HSV) initiates invasion of human cells by binding to the cell surface heparan sulfate (HS) glycosaminoglycan chains. This step is mediated by the viral envelope glycoproteins gC and/or gB. LÄS MER
17. Herpes simplex virus infection: epidemiological aspects and analysis of the type-specific antibody response
Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) are ubiquitous viruses, often leading to asymptomatic infections in humans. However, different clinical presentations can be seen including recurrent oral or genital lesions, meningitis and neonatal herpes. LÄS MER
18. HIV susceptibility factors in the human genital mucosa
Sammanfattning : Heterosexual HIV transmission is the most common viral transmission route worldwide. To establish a persistent infection the virus needs to cross the mucosal surface of the genital tract. The genital mucosa is thus considered to be the portal of HIV entry and initial site of viral replication. LÄS MER
19. Seroepidemiology of sexually transmitted infections of prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: There has been substantial progress in epidemiological research on prostate cancer over the last decade. An area of increasing interest is the possible role of sexual activity and history of sexually transmitted infections as a risk factor for prostate cancer. LÄS MER
20. The use of peptides for studying molecular events in HIV- and HSV-infections
Sammanfattning : Synthetic peptides were used as tools in order to study various characteristic sof human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV). Peptides were designed as multiple antigenic peptides (MAPs) and used as HIV vaccines in experimental animals. The included HIV epitopes were more immunogenic when immunized as MAPs than as a protein. LÄS MER
