Pioneer factors in viral infection
Pioneer factors are transcription factors sharing the fascinating ability to bind to compact chromatin and thereby alter its transcriptional fate. Most pioneer factors are known for their importance during embryonic development, for instance, in inducing

Relationship Between Pemphigus Vulgaris Severity and PCR-positive Herpes Simplex Virus
Pemphigus vulgaris is a rare autoimmune skin disease. Although herpes simplex virus has been associated with autoimmune diseases, evidence regarding its association with pemphigus vulgaris exacerbations is scarce. This retrospective cohort study aimed to

Herpes simplex virus interferes with amyloid precursor protein processing [PDF]
Background The early events underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain uncertain, although environmental factors may be involved. Work in this laboratory has shown that the combination of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) in brain and carriage of the

CNS infections caused by human herpesvirus 1 and human herpesvirus 2-herpes simplex virus type 1 and herpes simplex virus type 2--are reviewed. The major diseases associated with these viruses are meningitis and encephalitis. Two forms of encephalitis are known, neonatal encephalitis and encephalitis occurring after the neonatal period.
