Normal bone marrow cells from a donor positive for herpes simplex virus were transformed with Epstein-Barr virus. The resulting lymphoblastoid cell line has secreted immunoglobulin G1 of the kappa type continuously for 2 years. This immunoglobulin, detected both on the cell surface and in the cytoplasm, reacts with cells infected with herpes simplex virus. It defines an antigen that comigrates ...

conclusions herpes simplex virus was present in more patients with ms than healthy cases. hsv may be directly or indirectly associated with ms development. further comprehensive molecular studies are needed to confirm the etiopathologic association between hsv and ms disease. results totally, 63 (76.8%) patients with ms showed a history of hsv exposure by anti-hsv testing compared to 70 (78.7%)...

background :wide distribution and low half-life of acyclovir has led to a high dose consumption of the drug. recent studies have shown that encapsulation of acyclovir in nano-carriers can increase effectiveness and decrease its side effects. we investigated the inhibitory effect of acyclovir loaded nano-niosomes against herpes simplex virus type-1 (hsv-1) in cell culture.   methods : in-vitro c...

Herpes simplex virus type 2 and simian virus 40 were rapidly inactivated by retinal at micromolar concentrations. Other fat-soluble vitamins, particularly vitamin A derivatives, were also active against herpes simplex virus type 2 and several lipid-containing bacteriophages.

background: the present study sought to investigate molecular evidence for association between the presence of herpes simplex virus (hsv), cytomegalovirus (cmv), and epstein-barr virus (ebv) in crc and colorectal polyp by using the pcr method in iran. methods: in this analytical case-control study, we selected 15 patients with crc, 20 patients with colorectal polyp, and 35 patients without mali...

Herpes simplex virus infections of humans have been known since ancient times. Contemporary society has witnessed a series of devastating manifestations of herpes simplex virus infections--namely, genital herpes simplex virus infection and neonatal herpes simplex virus infection. With the evolution of society, particularly advances in birth control and increasing promiscuity, the seroprevalence...

Comparison of microbicides for efficacy in protecting mice against vaginal challenge with herpes simplex virus type 2, cytotoxicity, antibacterial properties, and sperm immobilization. Candidate microbicide PPCM blocks human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection in cell and tissue cultures and prevents genital herpes in a murine model. ACIDFORM inactivates herpes simplex virus and prevents ge...

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 yiel...
