The Antigens of Varicella-Zoster Virus
The Journal of Immunology, 1972Abstract Precipitin antigen was prepared from cultures infected with V-Z virus. Five separate antigens were identified. Reactions with radiolabeled antigen were detected by autoradiography. Partial purification of antigens could be accomplished in a discontinuous sucrose gradient, yet too little antigen was recovered from DEAE to make ...

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2013
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) generally causes self-limiting, two distinct clinical diseases with predominantly cutaneous manifestations and little mortality and morbidity. However, VZV could also cause pneumonitis with potentially lethal effects in otherwise healthy adults and immunocompromised individuals. In fact, this complication is regarded as one

Varicella-Zoster Virus Infection
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1988Excerpt To the editor: The conference on varicella zoster by Strauss and colleagues (1) may indeed reflect one viewpoint on using medications for treating zoster, but it certainly does not reflect ...

The proteins of Varicella-Zoster-Virus
Medical Microbiology and Immunology, 1978[35S] methionine-labelled Varicella-Zoster-Virus (VZV) was partly purified by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Enveloped virus, checked by electron microscopy, was analyzed by high resolution polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A polypeptide pattern of at least 31 proteins could be identified on the fluorogram.

Varicella-Zoster Virus Vaccine
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977THE RECENT REPORTS of Takahashi and his associates1-6in Japan on the effectiveness and innocuity of a live, attenuated varicella-zoster virus vaccine call for an examination of the nature and magnitude of the disease problem to be prevented and of the other factors on which a decision to use such a vaccine must be based.

Varicella-Zoster Virus Infections
Continuum, 2015This article describes the clinical features and laboratory and imaging abnormalities of the protean neurologic disorders produced by varicella-zoster virus (VZV) reactivation. Diseases include not only zoster, but also chronic pain (postherpetic neuralgia), meningoencephalitis and cerebellitis, single or multiple cranial nerve palsies (polyneuritis ...

Varicella Vaccine and Infection with Varicella–Zoster Virus
New England Journal of Medicine, 2005Universal vaccination of susceptible children and adults has had a profound effect on the epidemiology of varicella. Drs. Marietta Vazquez and Eugene Shapiro discuss the question of whether vaccine-induced immunity in children will wane over time.

Varicella-Zoster Virus Vaccine
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978To the Editor.— In his discussion of the new Japanese chickenpox vaccine (238:1731, 1977), Albert B. Sabin, MD, provides a somewhat superficial analysis of the morbidity produced by varicella. The implication that the chickenpox vaccine may reduce the morbidity owing to zoster or the statement that the use of the vaccine will not produce more zoster ...

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is one of the eight herpesviruseso that infects humans. The virus causes two diseases, varicella (chickenpox) and zoster (shingles) (1). Varicella is primarily an illness of children, although as many as 5% of adults in the United States may be susceptible. Zoster is caused by reactivation of latent VZV infection in sensory
