15 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) establishes a latent infection in peripheral neurons and can periodically reactivate to cause disease. Reactivation can be triggered by a variety of stimuli that activate different cellular processes to result in increased HSV lytic gene expression and production of infectious virus. The use of model systems has contributed significantly to our understanding of how reactivation of the...
