Clinical Features of Varicella-Zoster Virus Infection [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a pathogenic human herpes virus that causes varicella (chickenpox) as a primary infection, following which it becomes latent in peripheral ganglia.

Molecular Aspects of Varicella-Zoster Virus Latency [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Primary varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection causes varicella (chickenpox) and the establishment of a lifelong latent infection in ganglionic neurons. VZV reactivates in about one-third of infected individuals to cause herpes zoster, often accompanied ...

Varicella zoster virus infection [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2015
Infection with varicella zoster virus (VZV) causes varicella (chickenpox), which can be severe in immunocompromised individuals, infants and adults. Primary infection is followed by latency in ganglionic neurons. During this period, no virus particles are produced and no obvious neuronal damage occurs.

The Spectrum of Neurological Manifestations of Varicella–Zoster Virus Reactivation

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Varicella–Zoster virus (VZV) is a pathogenic human alpha herpes virus that causes varicella (chicken pox) as a primary infection and, following a variable period of latency in different ganglionic neurons, it reactivates to produce herpes zoster ...

Advances and Perspectives in the Management of Varicella-Zoster Virus Infections

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV), a common and ubiquitous human-restricted pathogen, causes a primary infection (varicella or chickenpox) followed by establishment of latency in sensory ganglia.

Varicella Zoster Virus Reactivation Following COVID-19 Vaccination: A Systematic Review of Case Reports

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
The newly developed COVID-19 vaccines have established a safe profile, yet some individuals experience a wide range of adverse events. Recently, reactivation of varicella zoster virus (VZV) has been observed after administration of different COVID-19 ...
