Most people have the Epstein-Barr (EBV) virus. Sometimes people are unaware of this virus in their body; it settles into immune cells and remains for the duration.

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can cause certain types of cancer or autoimmune diseases, but how the body controls this common ...

A type of immune cell targeting the Epstein-Barr virus may play a key role in driving multiple sclerosis (MS), a study found.

An infection with Epstein-Barr virus is a nonevent for most people. But for a subset, the virus can contribute to chronic ...

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can cause certain types of cancer or autoimmune diseases, but how the body controls this common viral infection is largely unknown. Researchers at the University Hospital ...

Fred Hutch Cancer Center scientists reached a crucial milestone in blocking Epstein Barr virus (EBV), a pathogen estimated to ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have uncovered a new clue to how Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) could contribute to multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic autoimmune disease that affects nearly one million ...

New research suggests that Epstein-Barr virus may actively provoke the immune system in people with multiple sclerosis. Scientists found large buildups of virus-targeting immune cells in the nervous ...

Over 95% of the world’s adult population is infected with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), but most people never realise it. The ...

A new study reveals how Epstein-Barr virus may provoke immune cells to attack the brain, offering fresh hope for treating multiple sclerosis.

Multiple sclerosis is also caused by a virus carried by almost all humans. A new study provides an explanation as to why only ...

An Anglo-American team of researchers has devised a new computational method for quantifying Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) directly from human genome sequences and used this to identify 22 genes that link ...
