Abstract excerpt
Chemokines regulate migration of leukocytes to sites of infection. In this work, we have shown that the chemokine RANTES/CCL5 is produced after herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection of macrophages and fibroblasts and provide data on the underlying molecular mechanism. Reporter gene assays showed HSV-induced RANTES production to be regulated at the transcriptional level. Expression of RANTES was blocked by...
