Borna Disease Virus: Mögliche Ursache neurologischer und psychiatrischer Störungen des Menschen

Die Borna'sche Krankheit ist schon lange bei Tieren, v. a. bei Pferden und Schafen, als eine sporadisch auftretende, progressiv verlaufende Encephalomyelitis bekannt und galt ausschließlich als tierpathogen. In Studien konnten Wissenschaftler BD-virusspezifische Antikörper auch in Liquores von Menschen mit psychiatrisch relevantem Krankheitsbild nachweisen, die die Erkenntnis brachten, daß der Mensch mit dem BD-Virus infizierbar ist.

Example text

The presence of isodisomy in a tumor genome can highlight a simple mechanism to obtain biallelic inactivation of a tumor suppressor gene which is already mutated or disrupted on one allele (Fig. 4). 5 Structural Aberration As translocations directly affect a small number of genes, the role of many translocations in cancer causation has become much clearer over the years. These translocations can be within a chromosome (with the homologous chromosome or inversion inside the same chromosome). They can also occur between different chromosomes and in a nonreciprocal manner (often with loss of material) or can form ring chromosome.
