Herpes Simplex. There are two types of herpes simplex vims (HSV) that infect humans. Type I causes orofacial lesions and 30% of the U.S. population suffers from recurrent episodes. Type II is responsible for genital disease and anywhere from 3 x 3 x 10 cases per year (including recurrent infections) occur. The primary source of neonatal herpes infections, which are severe and often fatal, is the mother infected with type II. In addition, there is evidence to suggest that cervical carcinoma may be associated with HSV-II infection (78—80).

BVdU differs from IdU and F TdU by being specifically phosphorylated in the 5 -position by herpes simplex vims type-1 (HSV-1) induced thymidine kinase. This restricts its action to cells infected by HSV-1. It is less active against genital herpes (HSV-2). HSV-l-induced thymidine kinase converts BVdU to the corresponding 5 -mono- and diphosphate, but HSV-2-induced thymidine kinase stops at the stage of the 5 -phosphate of BVdU. Apparendy, cellular kinases phosphorylate BVdU-5 -diphosphate to the corresponding 5 -triphosphate, which inhibits HSV-1 DNA polymerase to a greater extent than similar cellular DNA polymerases. 

The antiviral mechanism of action of acyclovir has been reviewed (72). Acyclovir is converted to the monophosphate in herpes vims-infected cells (but only to a limited extent in uninfected cells) by viral-induced thymidine kinase. It is then further phosphorylated by host cell guanosine monophosphate (GMP) kinase to acyclovir diphosphate [66341 -17-1], which in turn is phosphorylated to the triphosphate by unidentified cellular en2ymes. Acyclovir triphosphate [66341 -18-2] inhibits HSV-1 viral DNA polymerase but not cellular DNA polymerase. As a result, acyclovir is 300 to 3000 times more toxic to herpes vimses in an HSV-infected cell than to the cell itself. Studies have shown that a once-daily dose of acyclovir is effective in prevention of recurrent HSV-2 genital herpes (1). HCMV, on the other hand, is relatively uninhibited by acyclovir. 

In order to discuss the biological mechanisms involved in the aetiology of genital tract malformations, testicular cancer and lowered sperm counts, some knowledge of the processes involved in the differentiation and development of the male reproductive tract and determination of normal testicular function is required. An early embryo has the potential to develop either a male or a female...

Acute infection with Hetpes simplex viruses (HSV) results in painful rashes on skin and mucous membranes. HSV-1 mainly causes cold sores around the mouth (hetpes labialis) or eyes (keratitis), whereas infection by HSV-2 mostly results in sores in the genital or anal area. Less frequently, HSV also causes severe infections in newborns or potentially fatal encephalitis. HSV remains latent and can be reactivated by stress, suppression of the immune system or other infections.

Resiquimod (R-848) Agonist Genital Herpes Phase II clinical trials discontinued... 

In infectious disease compounds such as ANA975 (phase I trials) and Resiquimod (phase II trails) have been developed to target Hepatitis C and genital herpes, respectively. DRS954 is a TLR-7 and 9 antagonist in pre-clinical trials for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). 

Candida fungal superinfections also occur in the mouth and around die anal and genital areas. Signs and symptoms include lesions in the mouth or anal/genital itching. 

The macrolides are effective against a wide variety of pathogenic organisms, particularly infections of die respiratory and genital tract. 

HSV is divided into HSV-1, which causes oral, ocular, or facial infections, and HSV-2, which causes genital infection. However, either type can cause disease at either body site. HSV-1 causes painful vesicular lesions in the oral mucosa, face, or around the eyes. HSV-2 or genital herpes...
