Introduction: Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) is the virus that most often infects oral cavity. HSV-1 in latent phase migrates to trigeminal ganglion after primary infection and can reactivate cause recurrent intraoral herpes (RIH). The recurrence of RIH multifactorial triggered by decreased immunity, fatigue, hypersensitivity, stress, ultraviolet. Case: Three male patients came Oral Diseas...

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...

Herpes simplex virus infection of the central nervous system is still a significant cause of morbidity and often mortality. Changes of central nervous system are results of primary infection or activation of latent HSV-1, HSV-2. Neurological deficits often follow encephalitis herpetica. The application of PCR is prompt and specific diagnosis of herpes simplex virus infections of the brain. Adva...

Background and objective: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic proliferative disorder of unknown etiology and mainly affects young children. The histological feature is granuloma-like proliferation of langerhans-type dendritic cells. Although the possible role of viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV, Human Herpes virus -4</...

Benencia, F. (1999). Antiviral activity of sandalwood oil against Herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2. Phytomedicine 6(2), 119-23. The study tested the antiviral activity of sandalwood oil, the essential oil of Santalum album L against Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2). Results demonstrated dose-dependent effect of sandalwood oil in inhibiting the replication of virus, and more sign...

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...
