Characterization of varicella-zoster virus enhancement by the pesticide carbaryl.
Further characterization of the viral enhancement system of varicella-zoster virus by the pesticide carbaryl (1-naphthyl-N-methylcarbamate) is presented. It was necessary to expose cells to the enhancing chemical during the period of virus replication to detect enhancement. The optimum time for the pretreatment is 20 to 24 h. Maximum enhancement of virus expression occurs 48 to 72 h post-inocul...
متن کاملEnhancement of varicella-zoster virus replication in cultured human embryonic lung cells treated with the pesticide carbaryl.
In studies designed to determine the factors responsible for control of herpesvirus replicaton in an infected cell, we examined the interaction of varicella-zoster (VZ) virus-infected human embryonic lung cells with the pesticide carbaryl. The replication of the cell-associated VZ virus was enhanced 2- to 13-fold as compared to control cultures in Sevin 4 Oil-treated cultures and in cultures tr...
متن کاملImmunochemical characterization of pyrimidine kinase induced by varicella-zoster virus.
Thymidine kinase (TK) induced by varicella-zoster virus (VZV) was precipitated with ammonium sulphate and purified by Sephadex G-150, QAE-Sephadex and Blue Sepharose column chromatographies. The purified TK fraction also contained deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) activity and a 35000 mol. wt. (35K) polypeptide as a major component. The TK and dCK activities were both neutralized by anti-VZV serum. An...
متن کاملCovid-19 Vaccination and Reactivation of Varicella Zoster Virus
Introduction: After COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 that mostly affects upper respiratory tract, the scientists investigated an effective vaccine against the virus. As the vaccination of general population started some patients were visited with varicella zoster virus activation following the COVID vaccine.
متن کاملVaricella zoster virus.
Because of its ability to produce two clinically distinct disease entities (chickenpox and shingles), varicella zoster virus (VZV) is an unusual etiologic agent. Although in the past viral exanthems were mostly only of academic interest to the practitioner, the development of antiviral agents and the newly approved varicella (OKA) vaccine have increased the clinical significance. Also, with the...
