چکیده
Systemic vaccination of rabbits with an inactivated type 1 virus subunit vaccine induced humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Following ocular infection with type 1 herpes virus corneal ulceration and virus excretion were reduced in the vaccinated rabbits.

Efficacy of a recombinant glycoprotein D subunit vaccine on the development of primary and recurrent ocular infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 in mice.
The protective efficacy of a glycoprotein D subunit vaccine (gD2 SB AS4) was evaluated in a mouse model of human recurrent herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK). When administered before primary infection, gD2 SB AS4 protected mice against corneal pathology, mortality, and latency resulting from ocular viral challenge with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) McKrae strain. In addition, gD2 SB AS4 si...

Herpetic keratitis which is resulted from herpes simplex virus type I, is considered the most common cause of corneal blindness that needs being diagnosed and treated in order to prevent irreversible eye effects. The best method to diagnose it is molecular method which has high sensitivity and exclusivity. The current study was done on 25 eye samples collected from patients referred to the Feyz...

متن کاملExperimental ulcerative herpetic keratitis. II. Influence of topical corticosteroid in immunised rabbits.
Since the great majority of patients possess immune response to herpes simplex virus (HSV), the influence of a topical anti-inflammatory corticosteroid (0.1% clobetasone butyrate) on ulcerative herpetic keratitis was studied in rabbits with a previous HSV skin infection (immunised) and compared with that in normal rabbits. Corticosteroid treatment had a much greater ulceration-exacerbating effe...
متن کاملHerpes simplex keratitis. An experimental study.
The incidence of complicated herpes simplex keratitis appears to have increased and the important factor seems to be associated with the use of topical corticosteroid hormone. A good experimental model exists for the study of herpetic keratitis. The disease corresponds to the primary infection in man. The unfavorable effects of corticosteroid hormone on experimental herpetic keratitis is reported.
