    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. Studies on human polyomavirus infection in association with central nervous system disorders and bone marrow transplantation

    Författare :Gordana Bogdanovic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Human polyomaviruses BK virus (BKV) and JC virus (JCV) do not generally cause diseases in healthy immunocompetent individuals. However both BKV and JCV can establish persistent infections that can be reactivated and associated with serious clinical diseases in some immunocompromised patients. LÄS MER

    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

  5. 4. Common viruses and host gene interactions in multiple sclerosis

    Författare :Emilie Sundqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disorder, characterised by demyelination and inflammation of the central nervous system, leading to sensory and motor symptoms. MS is thought to be complex disease, with both environmental and genetic risk factors underlying disease susceptibility. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The role of microorganisms in prostate cancer development

    Författare :Johanna Bergh Drott; Fredrik Elgh; Torkel Wadström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prostate cancer; aetiology; inflammation; Propionibacterium acnes; patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Swedish men, but the aetiology of this disease is largely unknown. There is evidence for a linkage between chronic inflammation and prostate cancer. The mechanisms causing prostate inflammation and how this could promote tumour development and progression are however largely unknown. LÄS MER
