A paradigm shift: vaccine-induced antibodies as an immune correlate of protection against herpes simplex virus type 1 genital herpes.
More than a half-billion people worldwide are infected with genital herpes [1]. During primary infection, herpes simplex virus (HSV) establishes latency in lumbosacral dorsal root ganglia. The natural history of genital herpes is characterized by frequent episodes of recurrences that may be symptomatic or asymptomatic and that transmit virus to sexual partners or from mother to infant during la...

متن کاملAntigen-specific T cells localize to the uterine cervix in women with genital herpes simplex virus type 2 infection.
Genital reinfection with herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is uncommon in humans. The mechanism of acquired immunity is unknown. Because the cervix is a site of HSV exposure, we measured antigen-specific T cell responses to HSV in cervical lymphocytes during both lesional and nonlesional time periods. Cells were expanded without secondary in vitro stimulation with antigen. Proliferative and c...

Introduction: Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a highly prevalent sexually transmitted infection (STI) The prevalence of HSV-2 infection is increasing in many populations and geographic areas . Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is the cause of most genital herpes and is almost always sexually transmitted. Most HSV-2 infections are consequently expected to occur after the onset of sexua...
متن کاملThe Changing Epidemiology of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Infection: The Associated Effects on the Incidence of Ocular Herpes
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) with a worldwide distribution has been reported in all human populations, resulting in a clinical spectrum of infections. Although HSV type 2 (HSV-2) is known as the most common cause of genital herpes, an increasing number of cases with genital herpes are caused by HSV-1. The present study aimed to discuss the changes in the epidemiology of HSV-1 infection i...
