All =Same Characteristic Disease:

Primary Infection

LatentInfection

Reactivated Infection

HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUSES
Pathogenesis

Primary infections occur in childhood or adolescence…….
…..followed by establishment of latent virus in the cerebral or
spinal ganglia…….
……Later activation causes recurrent herpes simplex or zoster.
= Recurrences are rare for zoster.
Latent infections by Herpes viruses:
Examples =
Herpes simplex and varicella-zoster
viruses.

Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) :
Clinical Presentation
 Primary Infection
 Prodromal phase:
Tingling/itching of skin
 Appearance of painful vesicles
in clusters on an erythematous
base
 Vesicles ulcerate then crust
over and heal within 7-14 days
 Viral shedding continues for up
to 2-3 weeks
 Recurrent Disease
 After primary infection,
virus migrates to sacral
ganglion and lies dormant
 Reactivation occurs due to
various triggers
 Reoccurrence is usually
milder and shorter in
duration

The giant cells is best illustrated by the Tzanck smear= reveals multinucleated
giant cells in a smear taken from the painful vesicles .
4 herpesviruses= HSV types 1 and 2, VZV, and CMV induce the formation of
multinucleated giant cells, which can be seen microscopically in the
lesions.
Arrow points to a multinucleated giant cell with approximately eight
nuclei

HSV: Diagnosis
1- Clinical presentation
2-Viral culture for Isolation & identification.
3-Typing of HSV-Antigens & Nucleic acid by:
A - Monoclonal Abs B- Restriction Enzymes analysis.
4- DNA detection (PCR and ISH)
5- Serology ( IgM IgG Specific for HSV 1&2 )
6- Tzanck smear/Giemsa smear
7- Skin biopsy

Immunity HSV 1 & 2
 Passively from the mother to baby ( 1st 6 m).
 Primary infection ( 6m – 2 years )
 Anti HSV 1 Abs = child hood & until adolescents
 Anti HSV 2 Abs = during adolescence & sexual activity
Abs  Do not prevent re-infection
or reactivation ::::::: but modify infection .
 CMI  Controlre-infection & reactivation .

Treatment
Prevention
Control

Treatment of HSV-1 or HSV-2 :
 Acyclovir
 Valacyclovir
 Vidarabine
 Proved effective against HSV Infections
 All are inhibitors of viral DNA synthesis.
Suppress clinical manifestations
Shorten time to healing
Reduce recurrences of genital herpes.
 However, HSV remains latent in sensory ganglia.

Prevention of HSV-1 or
HSV-2 :
2…Chemoprophylaxis: Valacyclovir and Famciclovir
A… Suppression of recurrent lesions+ frequency of recurrences
B…. Reduces shedding of the virus + transmission
3… Operations:
- Cesarean section: who, at term, have genital lesions or positive viral cultures
- Circumcision: reduces the risk of infection by HSV-2
1…Avoiding contact:
with the vesicular lesion or ulcer
Still…………. No Approved Vaccines
against
HSV-1 or HSV-2

Varicella-Zoster
Virus

VARICELLA-ZOSTER VIRUS (VZV)
Structurally and morphologically:
similar to other
Herpes viruses
but antigenically is different.
It has a single serotype.
Disease:
The same virus causes both varicella and zoster.
Varicella (chickenpox) is the primary disease; zoster (shingles)
is the recurrent form.
Humans= Natural hosts.

1.Varicella Virus:
 Cause Chicken pox
(((((((((‫المائي‬ ‫الجدري‬ ))))))) ((((((‫)))))ابىخريان‬
 Highly contagious disease
 Mild in children
 Severe in adults and immuno- compromized patients.
*Complications:
1.Encephalitis
 2.Pneumonia

Chicken Pox


2. Zoster Virus:
= vesicles appear with severe
pain in the area of skin or mucosa supplied
by one or more groups of sensory nerves
and ganglia and is often unilateral=

Herpes Zoster
(Shingles)
Trunk
Head
Neck
are most commonly affected sites

Complications of Zoster Virus
1…..The most common complication =Post-herpetic neuralgia—
protracted pain =for months= especially common after ophthalmic zoster.
2…. Visceral disease=especially pneumonia= in
elderly adults = deaths occur in immunosuppressed patients with zoster (<1% of
patients).
3….Varicella -zoster disease of central nervous
system, most frequently meningitis, can present with
or without a typical zoster rash.

Herpes zoster in the distribution of thoracic and abdominal nerves

Herpes zoster ophthalmicus
Ophthalmic division
of trigeminal nerve
involved in 10–15%

Pathogenesis of primary infection with varicella-zoster
virus:
1.Entry :
A. Upper respiratory tract
B. Conjunctiva
2.Transmission:
A. Airborne droplet
B. Direct contact
3. Incubation period= 10 to 21 days.
4.Secondary viremia= transport of virus to skin and respiratory
mucosal sites
5. Replication in epidermal cells = characteristic rash (chickenpox).
6. VZV-specific immunity= required to terminate viral replication.
7. VZV gains access to ganglia cells= (Trigeminal + dorsal root)
establishes latency.

Clinical Comparison
Between Chickenpox and
Smallpox

Clinical differentiation
of chicken pox from small pox.
Causative agent Chicken pox (VZV) Small pox (Pox v.)
Severity of disease Mild Severe (mortality 1% -40 %)
Incubation period Usually 13-17 d.
(limits 10- 21d.)
Usually 11-12 d.
(limits 7- 21d.)
Distribution of rash
( density of rashes) Toward the center of body ( chest
abdomen & back)
Toward periphery of the body (head &
extremities )
Stage of rash type of rash on
time of clinical exam
Rash are seen with different
mixed stages ( papular +
vesicular rash)
All the rash at same stage &
commonly are deep set  vesicular or
pustular

Chicken Pox in Child Patient

Small Pox

SMALL POX

Clinical
Diagnosis of
VZV :
MAINLY
DEPENDABLE

1. Isolation of VZV
2.ELECTRON Microscopic Exam:
 Herpes V. particles
3. Light Microscopic Exam:
(Tzanck smear)=
Tissues Stained with Hematoxyline and
Eosin Multinucleated Giant cells

RAPID TESTS for VZV
4. Direct Ag Detection:
Labeled fluorescent Abs to VZV Ag. Exam. by
fluorescent microscope .
5.PCR or Nucleic Acid Hybridization:
Preferred for diagnosis of VZV encephalitis.
However, VZV DNA may be NOT detectable in CSF
at early presentation  inclusion of CSF VZV- IgM
antibodies== to improve sensitivity of diagnosis.
 6. Serological Testing=
1. Fluorescent Antibody Test
2. Elisa

Immunity to VZV
Varicella and zoster viruses are
identical: But… the two diseases
being the result of differing host
responses.
Previous infection with varicella
=confer lifelong immunity to
varicella.
Herpes zoster= occurs in the
presence of neutralizing antibody
to varicella.

Immunity to VZV
The VZV-specific cell mediated immunity is important in
Containment of VZV and recovery from both varicella and
zoster.
 Appearance of local interferon may also contribute to
recovery.
 Varicella-zoster virus, similar to other herpesviruses,
encodes means of evading host immune responses.
1… Down regulates major histocompatibility complex class I and II antigen
expression
2…Down regulates the interferon expression pathway

• No clear Explanation Why Reactivation of latent vzv infection
•  due to (waning of immunity)that allow viral replication in these ganglions
Varicella-Zoster Virus has 2 consecutive clinical forms that are
rarely or even not possible to recur in the same patient.

Treatment
Effective therapy
for Varicella:
Acyclovir
Valacyclovir
Famciclovir
Foscarnet.
Ganciclovir
1… Prevent the development
of systemic
disease in varicella-infected
immunosuppressed patients
2….Halt the progression of
herpes zoster in adults.

Treating of Patients with
zoster:
1…Accelerate healing of the
lesions
2… No cure of latent state
3… Reduce the incidence of
post-zoster neuralgia.

No antiviral therapy is necessary for
immunocompetent children.
Immunocompetent adults with moderate or
severe chickenpox or zoster often are treated
with acyclovir =reduce the duration + severity of symptoms.
Immunocompromised children and adults
with chickenpox, zoster, or disseminated
disease= should be treated with acyclovir.

Prevention and Control
Varicella-zoster immune globulin
(VariZIG)
= high VZV antibody titer = prevent
illness is now available for post-
exposure prophylaxis of high-risk
patients who lack serologic evidence of
immunity.

Treatment of VZV :
Acyclovir
Famciclovir
Valacyclovir
Foscarnet= Acyclovir-resistant
strains of VZV

A live attenuated varicella vaccine =
In 1995=
A single dose = highly effective protection from
varicella: in children= (80–85% effective) but in
adults(70%).
In 2006=
Two doses = 98% effective prevention of
varicella disease in children.
Duration of protective Antibodies = least 20 years.

Herpes Zoster (Shingles) Vaccine
 Licensed in USA in 2006.
14 times more potent version than varicella vaccine.
 Effective in older adults = reducing both
1…frequency of outbreaks of zoster
2…severity of disease
Recommended :
 Chronic medical conditions
Persons older than 60 years of age.

Prevention of VZV:
1..Vaccines
2..Immunoprophylaxsis
3..Drugs

Two vaccines against VZV=
 BOTH= live, attenuated VZV, but the zoster vaccine contains 14 times more virus
than the varicella vaccine
 BOTH = should not be given to immuno-compromised people + pregnant
women
 1.. Varicella vaccine= to prevent varicella= Varivax= Two doses.
 recommended for children between the ages of 1 and 12 years 2.. Zoster
vaccine= to prevent zoster= Zostavax= one dose.
 A…Recommended for people older than 60 years and who have had varicella.
 B… effective in preventing the symptoms of zoster, but does not eradicate the latent state of VZV.
 Varicella-zoster immune globulin (VZIG)=
 Contains a high titer of antibody to the virus, is also used for such prophylaxis.
 Acyclovir= useful in preventing varicella and dissemination of zoster in immunocompromised
people exposed to the virus.

THE SUMMARY
 1.. Herpes simplex viruses type 1&2 are associated with a
range of human diseases that are difficult to be clearly
attributed to any type of them.
 2.. Chicken Pox as a common contagious disease in Iraq can
be diagnosed and differentiated from Small Pox on clinical
as well as virological criteria.
 3..Varicella-Zoster Virus has 2 consecutive
clinical forms that are rarely or even not
possible to recur in the same patient.
