    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herpes_simplex_virus

    Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2) are two members of the human Herpesviridae family, a set of viruses that produce viral infections in the majority of humans. [1] [2] Both HSV-1 and HSV-2 are very common and contagious. They can be spread when an infected person begins shedding the virus.

    This species appears to be particularly damaging to the nervous system, and some research has attributed Herpes simplex virus 1 infection to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. The virus interacts with the components and receptors of lipoproteins , which may lead to the development of Alzheimer's disease. [ 7 ]

    The second, called, IgG is produced indefinitely. Therefore, the presence of IgM in the blood of the host is used to test for acute infection, whereas IgG indicates an infection sometime in the past. [8] Both types of antibodies are measured when tests for immunity are carried out. [9] Antibody testing has become widely available.

    HSV is classified into two types, HSV-1 and HSV-2. [1] While historically HSV-2 was more common, genital HSV-1 has become more common in the developed world. [1] [7] Diagnosis may occur by testing lesions using either PCR or viral culture or blood tests for specific antibodies. [1]

    The annual incidence in Canada of genital herpes due to HSV-1 and HSV-2 infection is not known (for a review of HSV-1/HSV-2 prevalence and incidence studies worldwide, see Smith and Robinson 2002). As many as one in seven Canadians aged 14 to 59 may be infected with herpes simplex type 2 virus [ 89 ] and more than 90 per cent of them may be ...

    Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry"), the ...

    Comparatively, the HSV-1 genome targeted by CRISPR is located in closed-off, non-replicating neurons, which makes reaching the genome much more challenging. [132] Another possibility to eradicate the HSV-1 variant is being pursued by a team at Duke University. By figuring out how to switch all copies of the virus in the host from latency to ...

  9. Herpetic gingivostomatitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herpetic_gingivostomatitis

    The HSV is a double-stranded DNA virus categorised into two types; HSV-1 and HSV-2. HSV-1 is predominantly responsible for oral, facial and ocular infections whereas HSV-2 is responsible for most genital and cutaneous lower herpetic lesions. Both HSV-1, and HSV-2 can be the cause of herpetic gingivostomatitis, [5] although HSV-1 is the source ...
