Herpes simplex: insights on pathogenesis and possible vaccines

Annual Review of Medicine
David M Koelle, Lawrence Corey

Abstract

Abstract Herpes simplex viruses are evolutionarily ancient and ubiquitous. In the past 20 years, there has been increasing recognition of a worldwide pandemic of HSV-2 infection. Moreover, HSV-2 prevalence has increased despite fairly widespread use of antiviral drugs for HSV. The success of HSV-1 and HSV-2 stems from latency within long-lived neurons and frequent mucocutaneous shedding. The generally mild medical consequences of HSV infection reflect a functional equilibrium between host and microbe in most immunocompetent persons. However, significant gaps in our knowledge of the correlates of disease severity and HSV immune evasion are limiting rational advances in these areas. Human genetic studies are gradually outlining important innate responses, while recent imaging and biopsy studies have begun to show that the temporal and spatial anatomic interplay between virus reactivation and host immune response may be important in reactivations and disease expression.

Antigenic Modulation

Antigenic modulation occurs when an antibody cross-links antigens on a cell surface, causing the antigens to become internalized. This can lead to therapeutic failure of monoclonal antibodies as the expression of the antigen becomes decreased on target cells. Find the latest research on antigenic modulation here.
