The Silent Virus Behind Mono Is Now a Prime Suspect in Major Diseases Epstein-Barr virus, which causes glandular fever, was once dismissed as a rite of passage. Scientists now link it to cancer and multiple sclerosis. Scientists are also reassessing the effects of other herpesviruses. Recent...

Abstract In a subset of children and adolescents, SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a severe acute hyperinflammatory shock1 termed multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) at four to eight weeks after infection. MIS-C is characterized by a specific T cell expansion2 and systemic...

Abstract Post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) is a complex and multifaceted clinical challenge requiring to emphasize its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. This study assessed hundreds of virological, serological, immunological, and tissue damage biomarkers in two patient cohorts who...

Highlights Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the first identified oncogenic virus. Globally, 1.5 % of human malignancies are attributed to EBV EBV is associated with lymphomas, carcinomas, and auto-immune diseases. Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA-1) is a key player in EBV-induced diseases...

Abstract COVID-19 vaccines have prevented millions of COVID-19 deaths. Yet, a small fraction of the population reports a chronic debilitating condition after COVID-19 vaccination, often referred to as post- vaccination syndrome (PVS). To explore potential pathobiological features associated with...

Abstract: Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is a known trigger and risk factor for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and post-COVID syndrome (PCS). In previous studies, we found enhanced IgG reactivity to EBV EBNA4 and EBNA6 arginine-rich sequences in...

Abstract Background and Objectives There is a strong link between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and multiple sclerosis (MS), but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Patients with MS typically have a polyspecific intrathecal production of immunoglobulin G (IgG), part of which is directed against...

Antibody responses to Epstein-Barr virus, human herpesvirus 6 and human herpesvirus 7 in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome T Sairenji, K Yamanishi, Y Tachibana, G Bertoni, T Kurata Abstract To test for an association between chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and infections with Epstein-Barr...

Lights and Shadows of Long COVID: Are Latent Infections the Real Hidden Enemy? Francesca Serapide, Marisa Talarico, Salvatore Rotundo, Vittorio Pascale, Riccardo Serraino, Enrico Maria Trecarichi, Alessandro Russo Abstract Long COVID-19 (LC) is a poorly understood, multifactorial condition...

In summary, we report that MS patients are hallmarked by an accumulation of immune responses specifically directed against EBV EBNA381–452 and cross-reacting with CNS GlialCAM370–389–, CRYAB2–21–, MBP205–224–, and ANO2135–154–derived epitopes. Although, our findings provide additional insights...

Effect of high dose vitamin C on Epstein-Barr viral infection Nina A Mikirova, Ronald Hunninghake Background Many natural compounds were tested for the ability to suppress viral replication. The present manuscript details an analysis of high dose vitamin C therapy on patients with EBV...
