  1. 1. Genetic variants of herpes simplex virus type 1

    Författare :Elham Rekabdar; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; s simplex virus type 1; glycoprotein G; genovariants; intrastrain diversity;

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) virus causes oral as well as genital lesions, and, on rare occasions, focal encephalitis and severe neonatal infections. Due to the partly overlapping clinical manifestations of infection with HSV-1 and its closest relative among herpesviruses, HSV-2, diagnostic methods are required to discriminate between infections with these two viruses.

  2. 2. Herpes simplex virus infection: epidemiological aspects and analysis of the type-specific antibody response

    Författare :Petra Tunbäck; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; herpes simplex virus; first episode genital herpes; seroepidemiology type-specific antibody-response; glycoprotein G-1; epitope-mapping;

    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

  3. 3. Anti-herpes simplex virus activities of sulfomannan oligosaccharide PI-88 and disulfated cyclitols

    Författare :Maria Ekblad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :herpes simplex virus; antiviral drugs; viral glycoproteins; heparan sulfate mimetic; PI-88;

    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

  4. 4. HIV-1, HIV-2 and other Sexually Transmitted Infections in Guinea-Bissau, West Africa

    Författare :Fredrik Månsson; Enheten för infektionssjukdomar; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HIV-1 HIV-2 Sexually Transmitted Infections Conflict Guinea-Bissau West Africa;

    Sammanfattning : HIV-1 is dominating the global HIV pandemic, while HIV-2 is mainly confined to West Africa. The highest HIV-2 prevalence figures have been reported from Guinea-Bissau. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Alphaherpesvirus infections of the central nervous system – Biomarkers, diagnostics and antiviral therapy

    Författare :Johan Lindström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; herpesviruses; central nervous system; facial paralysis; cerebrospinal fluid; biomarkers; acyclovir; neurotoxicity; syndromic testing;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Herpesviruses predate the evolution of humans and are globally ubiquitous. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) establish latency in neuronal tissue and may cause infections in the central nervous system (CNS).
