Protection against melanoma by vaccination with Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and/or vaccinia: an epidemiology-based hypothesis on the nature of a melanoma risk factor and its immunological controlBernd Krone

Common infectious agents in multiple sclerosis: a case-control study in childrenBernd Krone
Department of Virology, Georg August University Goettingen, Germany
Mult Scler 14:136-9. 2008..Additional investigations, however, make it highly unlikely that a relevant number of children have experienced infections with HSV-2. In general this study supports and emphasizes a complex infectious and immunologic background of MS...
Is the risk of multiple sclerosis related to the 'biography' of the immune system?Bernd Krone
Institute of Virology, University of Gottingen, Kreuzbergring 57, 37075 Gottingen, Germany
J Neurol 256:1052-60. 2009..It is possible that, in the future, MS could be prevented by vaccination against EBV in early childhood; the framework is of relevance to the design of an appropriate type of vaccine...
Paradigms in multiple sclerosis: time for a change, time for a unifying conceptBernd Krone
Institute of Virology, Centre for Hygiene and Human Genetics, University of Gottingen, Kreuzbergring 57, 37075 Gottingen, Germany
Inflammopharmacology 19:187-95. 2011..This suggested unifying concept of the pathogenesis of MS may open perspectives for prevention, diagnosis and therapy. In particular, prevention may be achieved by vaccinating against Epstein-Barr virus in early childhood...
