Varicella-zoster virus-specific immunity after herpes zoster.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 1 Apr 1991

Hayward A, Levin M, Wolf W, Angelova G, Gilden D

Abstract excerpt

The frequency of varicella-zoster virus (VZV)-specific T lymphocytes was higher in elderly subjects who had herpes zoster infections than in age-matched controls. This increase in T cell response persisted for at least 2 years while antibody levels to VZV returned to control values at this time. There were no differences in T cell or antibody responses to VZV between individuals with and without postherpetic...
