Stress-Induced Cellular Transcription Factors Expressed in Trigeminal Ganglionic Neurons Stimulate the Herpes Simplex Virus 1 ICP0 Promoter
12 Sept 2013
Abstract excerpt
Alphaherpesvirinae family members can reactivate from latency following stress. The synthetic corticosteroid dexamethasone induces certain cellular transcription factors in murine and bovine trigeminal ganglionic neurons. Three dexamethasone-induced transcription factors, Krüppel-like factor 15, Slug, and SPDEF, stimulated the herpes simplex virus type 1-infected cell protein 0 (ICP0) promoter more than 150-fold....
