Prevalence of Herpes Simplex Virus type-1, 2 and Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) in Eye Infection
Abstract Background and Aims: Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a common cause of corneal disease and is the leading infectious cause of corneal blindness among developed nations. This study is aimed to provide an estimation of the incidence of Herpes Simplex Virustype-1, 2(HSV1, 2) and Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) in tears and swab from eye infection by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in eye ...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Type 1 Ribonucleotide Reductase
Several known inhibitors of mammalian ribonucleotide reductase were studied for their interactions with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) ribonucleotide reductase. MAIQ (4-methyl-5-amino-l-formylisoquinoline thiosemicarbazone) produced apparent inactivation of HSV-1 ribonucleotide reductase. Only catalytically cycling, not resting, enzyme could be inactivated. Double reciprocal replots of the...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus type 2: Seroprevalence in pregnant women
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 کاملEffects of Morphine on Replication of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1&2
Background and Aims: Several drugs are being used in treatment of HSV infection in human but still introducing an effective safe drug is desirable. Methods: We investigated the inhibitory effect of morphine on replication of HSV in vitro. Results: The results indicated that a concentration of up to 200 ug/ml morphine had a limited effect on Vero cell viability. At this concentration the growt...
متن کاملRibonucleotide Reductase Induced by Herpes Simplex Type
The ribonucleotide reductase induced by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) was purified in high yield from serum-starved baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) cells infected with HSV-1 (strain H-29). The enzyme preparation was essentially free of both eucaryotic ribonucleotide reductase and contaminating enzymes that could cause significant depletion f substrates. The HSV-l-induced enzyme was assayed i...
