Disseminated Cutaneous Herpes Zoster in a Patient with Uncontrolled Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]
Herpes zoster is a clinical manifestation which results from reactivation of latent VZV (Varicella zoster virus) present in the sensory root ganglia. Disseminated herpes zoster has been reported in immune-compromised patients such as patient on cancer ...

SUMO pathway dependent recruitment of cellular repressors to herpes simplex virus type 1 genomes [PDF]
Components of promyelocytic leukaemia (PML) nuclear bodies (ND10) are recruited to sites associated with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) genomes soon after they enter the nucleus. This cellular response is linked to intrinsic antiviral resistance and

Optimization of Herpes Virus Infection Treatment in Children
The clinical features of human herpes virus 6 in acute, latent and persistent forms at 54 children aged from 2 months to 10 years were investigated. There was revealed the polymorphism of human herpes virus 6 in children associated with virus replication

An investigation of herpes simplex virus promoter activity compatible with latency establishment reveals VP16-independent activation of immediate-early promoters in sensory neurones [PDF]
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) type-1 establishes lifelong latency in sensory neurones and it is widely assumed that latency is the consequence of a failure to initiate virus immediate-early (IE) gene expression. However, using a Ore reporter mouse system in

Seroprevalence, predictors and estimated incidence of maternal and neonatal Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 infection in semi-urban women in Kilifi, Kenya [PDF]
Background: Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2) has public health importance as a leading cause of genital ulcers, a co-factor in HIV-1 acquisition and transmission and as a cause of neonatal herpes infections.

Control of herpes simplex virus type 1 latency in human trigeminal ganglia [PDF]
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a double-stranded DNA virus that infects humans and, after a primary lytic infection, establishes lifelong latency in the sensory neurons of the trigeminal ganglia (TG).

Varicella-Zoster viruses associated with post-herpetic neuralgia induce sodium current density increases in the ND7-23 Nav-1.8 neuroblastoma cell line [PDF]
Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most significant complication of herpes zoster caused by reactivation of latent Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV). We undertook a heterologous infection in vitro study to determine whether PHN-associated VZV isolates ...
