Local CD4 and CD8 T-cell reactivity to HSV-1 antigens documents broad viral protein expression and immune competence in latently infected human trigeminal ganglia. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection results in lifelong chronic infection of trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons, also referred to as neuronal HSV-1 latency, with periodic reactivation leading to recrudescent herpetic disease in some persons.

HSV neutralization by the microbicidal candidate C5A. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Genital herpes is a major risk factor in acquiring human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection and is caused by both Herpes Simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and HSV-2.

An HSV-2 nucleoside-modified mRNA genital herpes vaccine containing glycoproteins gC, gD, and gE protects mice against HSV-1 genital lesions and latent infection.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
HSV-1 causes 50% of first-time genital herpes infections in resource-rich countries and affects 190 million people worldwide. A prophylactic herpes vaccine is needed to protect against genital infections by both HSV-1 and HSV-2. Previously our laboratory

LAT region factors mediating differential neuronal tropism of HSV-1 and HSV-2 do not act in trans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
After HSV infection, some trigeminal ganglion neurons support productive cycle gene expression, while in other neurons the virus establishes a latent infection.

Global and Regional Estimates of Prevalent and Incident Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Infections in 2012.

PLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundHerpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) commonly causes orolabial ulcers, while HSV-2 commonly causes genital ulcers. However, HSV-1 is an increasing cause of genital infection.

HSV-1 Neuroinvasiveness

Intervirology, 1993
Neuroinvasiveness, the capacity of virus to enter and progress through the nervous system, may be accomplished by hematogenous or neural routes. We have been interested in defining HSV-1 genes specifically concerned with the neural pathway. In one system (involving HSV strain Ang), we have found that a single amino acid change in glycoprotein D, a ...

Herpes simplex virus assembly and spread in murine skin after infection from the outside

Journal of Virology
Herpes simplex viruses (HSV) cause many skin diseases, particularly in immunocompromised patients. HSV-1 infection of murine skin recapitulates many aspects of human pathology.

Assessing the contribution of the herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase to spontaneous mutations

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2002
Background The thymidine kinase (tk) mutagenesis assay is often utilized to determine the frequency of herpes simplex virus (HSV) replication-mediated mutations. Using this assay, clinical and laboratory HSV-2 isolates were shown to have a 10- to 80-fold
