False Positive PCR for Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) in Childhood CNS Infections
In 2010; 12(5):568-571 issue of IRCMJ journal, an article about herpetic encephalitis (HE) in children was published with the following title: Clinical Manifestations, Laboratory Findings and Outcomes of Children with Herpetic Encephalitis in Amirkola Children Hospital, Northern Iran. The authors found that during 2 years 34% (17 cases) of the 50 patients with clinical diagnosis of encephalitis...
متن کاملTzanck smears in herpes simplex virus infections
Background: The diagnosis of herpes simplex virus may requirevirological confirmation. Tzanck smear is an old, rapid, costeffective but nonspecific method that has been recently re-evaluatedas a method for the diagnosis of herpes virus infection. This studywas conducted to compare Tzanck smear and viral culture in thediagnosis of herpes simplex virus infection in patients clinicallysuspected to...

متن کاملRetargeting of herpes simplex virus (HSV) vectors.
Gene therapy applications depend on vector delivery and gene expression in the appropriate target cell. Vector infection relies on the distribution of natural virus receptors that may either not be present on the desired target cell or distributed in a manner to give off-target gene expression. Some viruses display a very limited host range, while others, including herpes simplex virus (HSV), c...
متن کاملExpression and in vitro Characterization of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV-1) ORF P Protein
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) unspliced 8.3 latency associated transcript (LAT), which located in the long repeat sequences, has been shown to contain at least 16 open reading frames (ORF: A-P). One of these ORF, ORF P, maps almost entirely antisense to HSV-1 neurovirulence gene, ICP34.5. Both ORF P and ICP34.5 are located in the long repeat and are antisense overlapping genes. Therefore, in O...
