## Abstract During the course of acute EpsteinβBarr virus (EBV) infection, there is a rise of oxygen radical production. As a consequence, the production of the oxygen radical scavenger manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is increased. Patients with acute EBV infections regularly develop autoant
Enzymatic antioxidant defense systems, like superoxide dismutase (SOD), may protect neuronal and glial cells from reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage. Beside the cytosolic constitutive CuZn SOD, mitochondrial manganese SOD (Mn SOD) represents a ROS inducible enzyme which should allow the adaptation
