DETECTION OF EPSTEIN BARR VIRUS IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS: TWO CENTERS STUDY
Background:Viruses are among the most common causes of opportunistic infections after transplantation. The risk for viral infection is a function of the specific virus encountered and the intensity of immune suppression used to prevent graft rejection ...

Identification and characterization of a novel non-structural protein of bluetongue virus [PDF]
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the causative agent of a major disease of livestock (bluetongue). For over two decades, it has been widely accepted that the 10 segments of the dsRNA genome of BTV encode for 7 structural and 3 non-structural proteins.

EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS: CAUSES, CONSEQUENCES, DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS IN HUMAN [PDF]
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) belongs to the family of herpesviruses, subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae, and genus Lymphocryptovirus. Despite this classification, there are two serotypes of the Epstein-Barr virus, namely type A and type B.

Transplantation immunology: aspects of allo- and EBV-specific reactivity : the EBV non-infected elderly - factors of resistance [PDF]
Defining the relevant components of cellular alloimmunity remains an important unresolved issue in clinical transplantation. The most promising marker of cellular alloreactivity available to date is donor-specific secretion of interferon-gamma (IFN-) as ...

Enhancer Control of MicroRNA miR-155 Expression in Epstein-Barr Virus-Infected B Cells
MicroRNA miR-155 is expressed at high levels in many human cancers, particularly lymphomas. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects human B cells and drives the development of numerous lymphomas. Two genes carried by EBV (LMP1 and EBNA2) upregulate miR-155 expression, and miR-155 expression is required for the growth of EBV-infected B ...

Epstein-Barr Virus and Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurologic disease affecting myelinated nerves in the central nervous system (CNS). The disease often debuts as a clinically isolated syndrome, e.g., optic neuritis (ON), which later develops into relapsing-remitting (RR) MS,
