Epstein-Barr virus in pediatric multiple sclerosis.
CONTEXT Infection with common viruses, particularly Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), has been postulated to contribute to the pathobiology of multiple sclerosis (MS). Detailed virological studies in pediatric MS have not been previously reported. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether children with MS are more likely to be seropositive for EBV or other common viruses than their healthy age-matched peers. D...
متن کاملMultiple sclerosis and Epstein-Barr virus.
CONTEXT Infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been associated with an increased risk of multiple sclerosis (MS), but the temporal relationship remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine whether antibodies to EBV are elevated before the onset of MS. DESIGN, SETTING, AND POPULATION Nested case-control study conducted among more than 3 million US military personnel with blood samples collec...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus and multiple sclerosis.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most common and successful human viruses, infecting more than 90% of the world's adult population. Despite its strong tumorigenic potential, most virus carriers remain healthy due to maintenance of a delicate balance between the host's immune system, which limits production of virus particles, and the virus, which persists for the duration of the host's li...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr Virus DNA Replication
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and its close relatives are the only known viruses that have two fully independent systems for replicating their genomes, one that supports virus production during active or "lytic" infection, and a second one that operates during latent stages of infection to allow the circular viral genomes to be duplicated during each cell division cycle. Although EBV's system of lyt...
متن کاملTorque teno virus: a ubiquitous virus
Torque teno virus (TTV) is a non-enveloped human DNA virus isolated by Nishizawa et al. in 1997.1 TTV, recently classified as the Alphatorquevirus genus within the Anelloviridae family by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), was the first human virus with a single-stranded circular DNA genome to be identified.2 Thus far, five main genetic groups (Groups 1–5) involving at l...
