Potential of mucoadhesive chitosan glutamate microparticles as microbicide carriers – antiherpes activity and penetration behavior across the human vaginal epithelium

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2021
Chitosan glutamate (gCS) spray-dried microparticles appear promising carriers to overcome challenges associated with vaginal microbicide delivery. This study aimed at elucidating the penetration and mucoadhesive behavior of developed gCS multiunit ...

HSV-2 sacral radiculitis (Elsberg syndrome)

open access: yesNeurology, 2004
A self-limiting syndrome of acute urinary retention in combination with variable other signs of spinal cord dysfunction and CSF pleocytosis was described by Elsberg >70 years ago.1 In many instances, a viral etiology is found, and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) reactivation from spinal ganglia is the most common associated infection.

Variant Analysis of the Thymidine Kinase and DNA Polymerase Genes of Herpes Simplex Virus in Korea: Frequency of Acyclovir Resistance Mutations

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The thymidine kinase (TK) and DNA polymerase (pol) genes of the herpes simplex viruses type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) are two important genes involved in antiviral resistance.

Vaginal HSV-2 Infection and Tissue Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesBIO-PROTOCOL, 2017
The vaginal murine HSV-2 infection model is very useful in studying mucosal immunity against HSV-2 ( Overall et al., 1975 ; Renis et al., 1976 ; Parr and Parr, 2003). Histologically, the vagina of Depo-Provera-treated mice is lined by a single layer of mucus secreting columnar epithelial cells overlying two to three layers of proliferative cells.

Antibodies Are Required for Complete Vaccine-Induced Protection against Herpes Simplex Virus 2.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) 0ΔNLS is a live HSV-2 ICP0- mutant vaccine strain that is profoundly attenuated in vivo due to its interferon-hypersensitivity.

Virus-specific immune memory at peripheral sites of herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection in guinea pigs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Despite its importance in modulating HSV-2 pathogenesis, the nature of tissue-resident immune memory to HSV-2 is not completely understood. We used genital HSV-2 infection of guinea pigs to assess the type and location of HSV-specific memory cells at ...

Herpes simplex virus 2 ICP0 mutant viruses are avirulent and immunogenic: implications for a genital herpes vaccine.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) ICP0(-) mutants are interferon-sensitive, avirulent, and elicit protective immunity against HSV-1 (Virol J, 2006, 3:44).

A herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) glycoprotein D-expressing nonreplicating dominant-negative HSV-2 virus vaccine is superior to a gD2 subunit vaccine against HSV-2 genital infection in guinea pigs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
We recently constructed a novel non-replicating dominant-negative HSV-2 recombinant viral vaccine (CJ2-gD2) capable of expressing various HSV-2 antigens that are dominant targets of HSV-2-specific CD8 T-cell response.

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

open access: yesBMC 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
