Molecular studies of the Oka varicella vaccine.

Expert review of vaccines - 1 Sept 2011

Quinlivan Mark, Breuer Judith, Schmid D Scott

Abstract excerpt

Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is one of eight members of the Herpesviridae family for which humans are the primary host; it causes two distinct diseases, varicella (chickenpox) and zoster (shingles). Varicella results from primary infection, during which the virus establishes latency in sensory neurons, a characteristic of all members of the Alphaherpesvirinae subfamily. Zoster is caused by reactivation of latent...
