Simian varicella virus (SVV) is closely related to varicella-zoster virus (VZV) and induces a natural varicella-like disease in nonhuman primates. Therefore, simian varicella is a useful model to investigate varicella pathogenesis and to evaluate antiviral therapies. In this report, we review recent
African green monkeys (Cercopithecus aethiops) were immunized with three intramuscular injections of gpI, gpII, or gpIII glycoprotein antigens of varicella-zoster virus (VZV). Antibody responses to VZV were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and to simian varicella virus (SVV) b
