Background Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a ubiquitous alphaherpesvirus that produces varicella and zoster. VZV can infect multiple cell types in the spinal cord and brain, including astrocytes, producing myelopathy and encephalopathy. While studies of VZV-astrocyte interactions are sparse, a recent report showed that quiescent primary human spinal cord astrocytes (qHA-sps) did not appear activated...
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a neurotropic alphaherpesvirus that, following primary infection (varicella), establishes latency in sensory, autonomic, sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons, where it remains until reactivation (zoster). VZV-specific cell-mediated immune responses maintain VZV latency; thus, immunosuppressed and elderly persons are at risk of reactivation and associated neurological...
