Abstract

It may be possible to eliminate herpes simplex or zoster viruses from the neurons of carriers by treatment with an antiviral chemotherapeutic agent such as adenine arabinoside, ribavirin or acyclovir, coupled to a compound such as horseradish peroxidase that undergoes retrograde axonal transport.
