11. Novel Procedures for Identification and Characterization of Viral Proteases Inhibitors
Sammanfattning : Viral proteases are often considered to be attractive drug targets because of their crucial function in the viral replication machinery. In order to increase our knowledge of these important targets and to contribute to the discovery and development of new antiviral drugs, the proteases from hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) have been produced and their interactions with inhibitors and fragments have been characterized, using enzyme inhibition and SPR biosensor based interaction assay.

12. Human monoclonal antibody technology. A tool to investigate human antibody repertoires
Sammanfattning : The development of technologies to generate cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies of human origin has a great impact on the ability to study repertoires of specificities in the humoral immune response. Furthermore, it permits the generation of reagents which may be valuable for diagnostic and therapeutic applications and which lack some of the disadvantages of similar murine antibodies. LÄS MER
13. Immune evasion of human cytomegalovirus : studies of UL18 and US2 function
Sammanfattning : The β-herpes virus cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infects human populations at a high frequency worldwide. Primary infection with HCMV, usually asymptomatic, is followed by lifelong latency. During the long co-evolution of virus and host, a fine balance has developed between viral immune evasion strategies and defence mechanisms of the immune system. LÄS MER
14. Human cytomegalovirus : from novel strain, miRNAs to interplay with breast cancer
Sammanfattning : The prevalence of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) ranges from 40% to 100% worldwide. A primary HCMV infection results in a lifelong latent or persistent infection. LÄS MER
15. Human cytomegalovirus in congenital infections and embryonal malignancies of the nervous system
Sammanfattning : Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a herpesvirus that may cause severe or even fatal disease in immunocompromised patients as well as severe developmental disturbances in foetuses infected in utero. In contrast, only mild symptoms are generally observed in immunocompetent individuals. Virus infections are very common in and the global prevalence is 70-90%. LÄS MER
