✦ Synopsis

Lewis rats were infected by corneal scarification with HSV type 1 type strain F virus. The animals showed symptoms of infection and inflammatory infiltrates of the eye but little mortality. After one month, immune responses to viral and autoantigens were examined. It was shown that lymph node cells proliferated to the myelin antigen, proteolipoprotein, and the HSV antigen, glycoprotein D, but showed depressed responses to antigens of the eye, specifically corneal and retinal antigens. Splenic cells showed small but significant responses to antigens of the eye, indicating immune deviation similar to that previously demonstrated in ACAID, where antigen had been injected into the anterior chamber of the eye.

Based on well-documented data showing that bioactive ions (such as Ca 2+ , PO 4 -, etc.) released by BCPC induce various cell responses and on the significance of herpes outbreaks in human pathology, we investigated whether BCPC can modify cell response to HSV-1 infection.

## Abstract Herpes simplex virus (HSV) can enter the central nervous system and cause encephalitis (HSV‐1) or meningitis (HSV‐2). Microglia, the immunocompetent cells of the central nervous system, are potentially able to detect viral infections. Microglia have been shown to express the glutamate t

## Abstract Aciclovir (ACV)‐resistant __Herpes simplex virus__ type‐2 (HSV‐2) infections are observed commonly in patients also infected with HIV‐1. The use of foscarnet (FOS) in these patients may also lead to resistance. This situation can become a difficult therapeutic challenge. Four cases of p
