Unraveling the immune signature of herpes zoster: Insights into pathophysiology and the HLA risk profile

2023-02-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infects over 95% of the population and establishes latency afterwards. Reactivation of VZV causes herpes zoster (HZ), commonly known as shingles, which presents as a painful rash in mostly the elderly and people with a weakened immune system. However, HZ might occur in otherwise healthy individuals too. In this study, we have studied the immune signature of HZ to...
