A review of latency in the Alloherpesviridae family. [PDF]

J Fish Dis
Abstract The ability to impact the immune response of the host has been recognized as essential for the success of a virus during infection. A few groups of viruses can combine these immunomodulatory mechanisms with specific patterns of their own transcriptional and replication regulation to achieve persistence within the host long term.

Exploring the Antiviral Potential of Tungsten Oxide Nanoparticles Against Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: A Promising Alternative to Acyclovir. [PDF]

IET Nanobiotechnol
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV‐1) is responsible for the majority of cold sores, herpetic keratitis‐induced blindness, profound skin lesions, and encephalitis that can be fatal. Currently, acyclovir and its derivatives are the first‐line therapy for the treatment of HSV‐1 infection.

Phylogeographic analysis reveals an ancient East African origin of human herpes simplex virus 2 dispersal out-of-Africa [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2022
AbstractHuman herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) is a ubiquitous, slowly evolving DNA virus. HSV-2 has two primary lineages, one found in West and Central Africa and the other found worldwide. Competing hypotheses have been proposed to explain how HSV-2 migrated out-of-Africa (i)HSV-2 followed human migration out-of-Africa 50-100 thousand years ago, or (ii)

Association between human genetic variants affecting the host NK cell response and the development of herpes simplex virus type 1 encephalitis

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Herpes simplex virus encephalitis (HSE) is a rare complication of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV‐1) infection or reactivation. It is so far unclear why only few patients develop HSE. As natural killer (NK) cells provide an important defense against HSV‐1, we investigated whether there is an association between distinct human genetic variants

Rapid and direct detection of herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 by Real-Time PCR method in clinical specimens [PDF]

Medical Laboratory Journal, 2023
Background: Herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2) are a common cause of dermal, oral, and genital infections worldwide. Rapid diagnosis of infected patients will prevent transmission to uninfected individuals. Therefore, this study aimed to detect HSV-

The impact of cerebrospinal fluid viral polymerase chain reaction testing on the management of adults with viral meningitis: A multi‐center retrospective study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of viral polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing in patients with aseptic meningitis and identify opportunities for improvement in clinical management. All cerebrospinal fluid samples collected in 1 year from four teaching hospitals in Sydney, Australia, were reviewed.

Nasopharyngeal virome analysis of COVID‐19 patients during three different waves in Campania region of Italy

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 2275-2283, May 2022., 2022
Abstract From December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection has spread rapidly, leading to a global pandemic. Little is known about possible relationships between SARS‐CoV‐2 and other viruses in the respiratory system affecting patient prognosis and outcomes.

Gorilla herpes simplexvirus phylogenetic analysis

, 2021
Viruses closely related to human pathogens can reveal the origins of human infectious diseases. Human herpes simplexvirus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) are hypothesized to have arisen via host-virus co-divergence and cross-species transmission.
