3. The Herpesviruses All members show latency and cause recurrent infection – more severe with advancing age, cancer chemotherapy, or other conditions that compromise the immune defenses Large enveloped icosahedral dsDNA Replicates within nucleus

4. Herpesviridae large Family; 8 infect humans – HSV-1 – HSV-2 – VZV – CMV – EBV – HHV-6 – HHV-7 – HHV-8

5. Epidemiology of Herpes Simplex Viruses Transmission – direct exposure to secretions containing the virus – active lesions most significant source – genital herpes can be transmitted in the absence of lesions HSV multiplies in sensory neurons, moves to ganglia – HSV-1 enters 5 th cranial nerve – HSV-2 enters lumbosacral spinal nerve trunk ganglia

6. Epidemiology of Herpes Simplex Viruses Recurrent infection triggered by various stimuli – fever, UV radiation, stress, mechanical injury Newly formed viruses migrate to body surface – produce a local skin or membrane lesion

7. Type 1 Herpes Simplex (HSV – 1) Herpes labialis – fever blisters, cold sores – most common recurrent HSV-1 infection – vesicles occur on mucocutaneous junction of lips or adjacent skin – itching and tingling prior to vesicle formation – lesion crusts over in 2-3 days and heals Herpetic gingivostomatitis – infection of oropharynx in young children – fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes Herpetic keratitis – ocular herpes

8. Type 2 Herpes Simplex (HSV – 2) Genital herpes – herpes genitalia – starts with malaise, anorexia, fever, and bilateral swelling and tenderness in the groin – clusters of sensitive vesicles on the genitalia, perineum, and buttocks – urethritis, painful urination Recurrent bouts usually less severe – triggered by menstruation, stress, and concurrent bacterial infection

9. Herpes of the Newborn HSV-1 and HSV-2 Potentially fatal in the neonate and fetus Infant contaminated by mother before or during birth hand transmission by mother to infant Infection of mouth, skin, eyes, CNS Preventative screening of pregnant women – delivery by C-section if outbreak at the time of birth

10. Diagnosis, Treatment, and Control Vesicles and exudate are typical diagnostic symptoms scrapings from base of lesions showing giant cells – culture and specific tests for diagnosing severe or disseminated HSV direct fluorescent antibody tests Treatment – acyclovir, famciclovir, valacyclovir; topical medications

11. Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) virus enters neurons & remains latent later reactivation of the virus results in shingles with vesicles localized to distinctive areas – dermatomes treatment – acyclovir, famciclovir, interferon live attenuated vaccine

12. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) HSV-4 infects lymphoid tissue & salivary glands transmission – direct oral contact & contamination with saliva by mid-life 90-95% of all people are infected causes mononucleosis – sore throat, high fever, cervical lymphadenopathy Complications include: – heart defects – facial paralysis – rupture of the spleen – jaundice (hepatitis)

13. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) 30-50 day incubation most cases asymptomatic Burkitt’s lymphoma – associated with chronic co- infections with malaria nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Chinese & African men

14. Human Herpes Virus 6 HHV-6 T-lymphotropic virus transmitted by close contact very common causes roseola – an acute febrile disease in babies 2-12 months can cause encephalitis, cancer

15. Human Herpes Virus 6 begins with fever, followed by a faint maculopapular rash usually self-limited adults may get mono-like symptoms, lymphadenopathy, hepatitis over 70% of MS patients show signs of infection

16. Diseases of the Skin Caused by Herpesviruses

17. HEPATITIS B VIRUS:

19. HBV SPREAD MAINLY BY PARENTERAL ROUTE DIRECT PERCUTANEOUS INOCULATION OF INFECTED SERUM OR PLASMA INDIRECTLY THROUGH CUTS OR ABRASIONS ABSORPTION THROUGH MUCOSAL SURFACES ABSORPTION OF OTHER INFECTIOUS SECRETIONS (SALIVA OR SEMEN DURING SEX)

20. HBV SPREAD MAINLY BY PARENTERAL ROUTE POSSIBLE TRANSFER VIA INANIMATE ENVIRONMENTAL SURFACES VERTICAL TRANSMISSION SOON AFTER CHILDBIRTH (TRANSPLACENTAL TRANSFER RARE) CLOSE, INTIMATE CONTACT WITH AN INFECTED PERSON

21. WHO IS AT GREATEST RISK FOR HBV INFECTION? LAB PERSONNEL WORKING WITH BLOOD PRODUCTS SEXUALLY ACTIVE HOMOSEXUALS PERSONS WITH MULTIPLE AND FREQUENT SEX CONTACTS MEDICAL/DENTAL PERSONNEL
