The 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...

A Preliminary Study on the Molecular Identification of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 in Iranian Population

Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1) is a member of the Herpesviridae family that causes herpetic disease in human. During the last 25-30 years, many investigations have been conducted on pathogenesis and molecular biology of this virus in several countries. In Iran HSV-1 has been isolated from patients and detected using immunological techniques. In this study, we investigated the molecular asp...

Detection of Herpes Simplex Virus Antibodies Using the Whole Virus and Recombinant gD

Background and Aims: Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) remains a potentially serious health problem world wide. All infected people, including asymptomatic ones, are potential sources for virus transmission. Virus envelope contains at least 13 glycoproteins, which glycoprotein D is the major target of immune responses. The aim of this study was development of a specific method that is a more...

Inhibitory Effect of Mentha Piperita Extracts against Herpes Simplex Virus Isolated from Eye Infection

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is one of the common pathogenic viruses of humans bing. This study aimed to determin anti-herpes virus activity of Mentha Piperita extracts in vitro. Mentha Piperita extracts can inhibit HSV infection when the cells treated before viral adsorbtion. HSV-1 were also inhibited by menthol after viral adsorption. HSV-1 viral particles were directly inhibited and viral yie...
