Inhibition of HSV cell-to-cell spread by lactoferrin and lactoferricin.
The milk protein lactoferrin (Lf) has multiple functions, including immune stimulation and antiviral activity towards herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2); antiviral activity has also been reported for the N-terminal pepsin-derived fragment lactoferricin (Lfcin). The anti-HSV mode of action of Lf and Lfcin is assumed to involve, in part, their interaction with the cell surface glycosa...
متن کاملHSV-1 miR-H6 Inhibits HSV-1 Replication and IL-6 Expression in Human Corneal Epithelial Cells In Vitro
HSV-1 infection in the cornea could lead to blindness. The infected cell polypeptide 4 (ICP4) of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a regulator of viral transcription that is required for productive infection. It has been previously demonstrated that miR-H6 encoded from HSV-1 genome targets ICP4 to help maintain latency. In this study, synthesized miR-H6 mimics were transfected into HSV-1-infect...
متن کاملProtection from herpes simplex virus (HSV)-2 infection with replication-defective HSV-2 or glycoprotein D2 vaccines in HSV-1-seropositive and HSV-1-seronegative guinea pigs.
BACKGROUND A herpes simplex virus (HSV)-2 candidate vaccine consisting of glycoprotein D (gD2) in alum and monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL) reduced genital herpes disease in HSV-1-seronegative women but not in men or HSV-1-seropositive women. METHODS To determine the effect of HSV-1 serostatus on effectiveness of different vaccines, we tested gD2 in alum/MPL, gD2 in Freund's adjuvant, and dl5-29 ...
متن کاملCell-mediated immune tolerance to HSV-1 antigens associated with reduced susceptibility to HSV-1 corneal lesions.
We have investigated the involvement of cell-mediated immune responses to Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in the pathogenesis of HSV-1 induced corneal stromal lesions in mice. Topical corneal (TC) HSV-1 infection induced a vigorous delayed hypersensitivity response, as well as lymphoproliferative and cytotoxic responses in the regional lymph nodes. The cytotoxic response involved HSV-1 spec...
متن کاملEvaluation of HSV-1 and adenovirus vector-mediated infection, replication and cytotoxicity in lymphoma cell lines.
Lymphoma is not a common focus for viral therapy as many researchers do not consider lymphoma as a suitable target for viral vectors. In the present study, the infection, replication and cytotoxicity of herpes simplex virus (HSV) and adenovirus vectors were screened and evaluated in different lymphoma cell lines. Three recombinant viruses, BAC-HSV-1-eGFP, Adv-eGFP and an NV1020-like oncolytic H...
