Review of Varicella zoster virus : from epidemiology to prevention [PDF]
The Varicella zoster virus is a human pathogen which causes Varicella after primary infection and herpes zoster after secondary reactivation. Both disease manifestations can occur at any age; however, Varicella is seen more commonly in children whilst ...

Sustained delivery of a shingles subunit vaccine from an injectable polymer–nanoparticle hydrogel enhanced the potency, durability, and breadth of immune responses in aged mice while minimizing inflammatory cytokine production and reactogenicity. This strategy decouples immunogenicity from reactogenicity and offers a promising approach to improve ...

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Bilateral Symmetrical Herpes Zoster in an Immunocompetent 15-Year-Old Adolescent Boy
Herpes zoster is uncommon in immunocompetent children. The bilateral symmetrical occurrence of herpes zoster lesions is extremely rare. We report a 15-year-old immunocompetent Chinese adolescent boy who developed bilateral symmetrical herpes zoster ...

Single‐cell profiling and functional perturbation reveal coordinated JAK1‐pSTAT3 downstream programs in optic neuritis, including MCL1‐dependent fitness of pathogenic CD4+ Tem cells and glycolysis‐linked, cholesterol‐sensitive B‐cell responses associated with RORA. Upadacitinib disrupts this reciprocal T‐B‐cell circuit and alleviates neuroinflammation,

Herpes zoster isolated in the glossopharyngeal nerve: a case report and literature review
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) can cause chickenpox (varicella zoster) and shingles (herpes zoster). Herpes zoster can affect cranial nerves but rarely impacts the glossopharyngeal nerve (GN) in isolation.

Circulating Exosomes Drive Persistent Neuronal Dysfunction in Post‐Herpetic Neuralgia Patients
Proposed model of exosome‐mediated neuronal dysfunction in post‐herpetic neuralgia (PHN). (1) Circulating, non‐pathogenic exosomes maintain homeostatic processes in healthy skin, where sensory nerve fibers innervate the epidermis and dermis. (2) During acute zoster, reactivating varicella zoster virus (VZV) travels down neurites to the skin causing ...
