The L.E.A.P.S. heteroconjugate vaccine antigen (JgD), composed of a T cell epitope from glycoprotein D (gD(8-23)) of herpes simplex virus (HSV) linked with a peptide sequence from beta-2-microglobulin (aa38-50), elicited protection against lethal…
The requirements for disease development in the mouse epidermal scarification-zosteriform model of HSV infection are likely to parallel those required for primary HSV disease of humans. HSV-1 strains, which are neuroinvasive in the mouse footpad…
UV-inactivated, infectious, and other forms of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) induced interferon (IFN) production by different routes in myeloid origin mononuclear cells (MOMC) (consisting predominantly of monocytes). GM-CSF activated the MOMC…
