摘要
单纯疱疹病毒2型(herpes simplex virus type 2,HSV-2)是人类疱疹病毒家族中α家族成员,可引起多年龄段的人群生殖器疱疹及其他疱疹疾病。由于该病毒具有复杂的基因结构及感染病理,其感染至今尚无有效的治疗方法。该病毒可抑制机体免疫系统,在神经细胞潜伏感染,具有重激活特性,因此,其疫苗的研制亦需要复杂的技术,且面临重重的挑战。
Abstract
Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a member of the alpha subgroup of the human herpes virus family. It has a strong pathogenic ability to cause genital herpes and other herpes diseases in various age groups. Due to its complex genetic structure and pathological features, there is no effective clinical treatment for this medical concern. In addition, latent infection of nerve system, viral reactivation and viral induced immune suppression are major challengers for vaccine research and development.
