Circulation of the virus was confirmed by qPCR: HSV-1 DNA was detected in 25.6% (54/211) of anti-HSV1 IgM-positive samples with viral loads ranging from 5,99E + 02 to 3,36E + 13, indicating a possible HSV-1 outbreak in these Indigenous communities. The high prevalence of HS...
Positive samples were titrated over time after 12 days. In 90 study participants, there was a fourfold or greater increase in IgG antibody titers, as well as the absence (negative test) of IgM and G to HSV-2, which can serve as a criterion for the current disease. The absence of IgM ...
[48,49,50,51,52]. One means of measuring mechanosensory function of the cornea is the blink reflex. Using a Cochet Bonnet esthesiometer, HSV-1-infected WT, TRIM21+/−, and TRIM21 KO mice were evaluated for cornea sensitivity. All groups of infected mice showed a significant loss in ...
