  1. The role of natural killer cells in control of varicella zoster virus infection

    Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a globally important virus with significant health and economic impacts. Although primary VZV infection is often perceived as a mild childhood illness, VZV infection is lifelong and reactivation of the latent virus in the elderly and immunocompromised population …

  3. Development of protein microarrays for the investigation of host-pathogen interactions

    Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV) is a human herpesvirus (causing chickenpox and shingles upon reactivation) whose diagnosis is particularly important in pregnancy and immunocompromised patients. Current sérodiagnostic assays are either based on crude whole cell lysates or glycoprotein preparations …

  4. Economic evaluations of vaccines in Canada: Exploring the epidemiologic and economic impact of chickenpox vaccine strategies in Canada using an agent-based model

    … disease caused by varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which can reactivate as shingles in adulthood. While natural waning of VZV cell-mediated immunity (CMI) can lead to shingles reactivation, one theory posits contact with a shingles or chickenpox case may boost an individual’s VZV-CMI (i.e. …

  6. Mathematical modeling for epidemiological inference and public health support

    … stochastic model of Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) transmission, whose main novelty is the inclusion of realistic population dynamics over the last century. This chapter represents an attempt to answer the need pointed out by recent studies for a better understanding of the role of demographic …

  7. DISSECTION OF HOST-VIRUS INTERACTIONS IN THE HUMAN CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

    … Monkeypox virus (MPXV), Varicella zoster virus (VZV) and Influenza A viruses (IAV). Our comparative virology approach demonstrated a susceptibility and permissiveness to herpesvirus infection, while in contrast neurons did not show any productive infection to either IAV or MPXV. By developing a …
