Family Herpesviridae and neuroinfections: current status and research in progress [PDF]
This article addresses the relationship between human herpesviruses (HHVs) and neuroinfections. Alphaherpesviruses, betaherpesviruses and gammaherpesviruses are neurotropic viruses that establish latency and exhibit reactivation capacity. Encephalitis and meningitis are common in cases of HHV.

Toll-like receptor-mediated innate immunity against herpesviridae infection: a current perspective on viral infection signaling pathways [PDF]
Background In the past decades, researchers have demonstrated the critical role of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in the innate immune system. They recognize viral components and trigger immune signal cascades to subsequently promote the activation of the ...
