Herpes simplex virus
Biological Propeties shape and structure
Biological Propeties Typing HSV-1 HSV-2
Biological Propeties Cultivation
Pathogenesis Source: human transmission HSV-1: contact HSV-2: sex contact; vertical transmission
Pathogenesis types of infection Primary infection Latent infection and reactivation
Primary infection HSV-1 HSV-2 6m-2y herpes gingivostomatitis Herpes keratitis Eczema herpeticum HSV Encephalitis HSV-2 Adults: Genital herpes Neonates: HSV infection of neonates
Latent infection and reactivation HSV → primary infection → a little amount of virus remained → HSV-1: 三叉神经节, 颈上神经节 HSV-2:骶神经节 → latent infection → reactivated by several stimulators → arrive at the mucosa that was initially infected
Varicella-Zoster Virus
Varicella-Zoster Virus source: human Transmission respiratory aerosols direct contact with skin lesions
Disease VZV → viremia → chicken pox → 脊髓后根神经节; 脑神经的感觉神经节 → reactivation → shingles
Epstein-Barr Virus
Epstein-Barr Virus Burkitt‘s lymphoma nasal pharyngeal carcinoma infectious mononucleosis
Epstein-Barr Virus source: human transmission saliva sex contact
Epstein-Barr Virus types of infection multiplication infection: epithelial cells latent infection: B lymphocytes transformation
Epstein-Barr Virus Diseases Infectious mononucleosis Burkitt's lymphoma Nasopharyngeal cancer
Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV)
HCMV source: human Transmission maternal-infant transmission close contact sexually transmitted blood transfusions and transplants
Disease Congenital infection Perinatal infection placenta Cytomegalic inclusion disease Perinatal infection adolescent and adult infection Granular fever Disease in immunosuppressed patients transformation and carcinogenesis
Human herpes virus 6
Human herpes virus 6 latent infection in T cells Children: exanthem subitum Adults: mononucleosis
