Varicella zoster virus (VZV), also known as human herpesvirus 3 (HHV-3, HHV3) or Human alphaherpesvirus 3 (taxonomically), is one of nine known herpes viruses that can infect humans. It causes chickenpox (varicella) commonly affecting children and young adults, and shingles (herpes zoster) in adults but rarely in children.
VZV is one of nine human herpesviruses. VZV is also called human herpesvirus 3. The herpesviruses most closely related to VZV include herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and type 2. As common to all herpesviruses, VZV structure includes a capsid surrounded first by a tegument and then by an envelope.
Herpesviridae is a large family of DNA viruses that cause infections and certain diseases in animals, including humans. [1][2][3] The members of this family are also known as herpesviruses.
19 Ιαν 2022 · The Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) or human herpes virus 3 is a neurotropic human alpha herpes virus responsible for chickenpox/varicella and shingles/Herpes zoster (HZ). This review will focus on HZ. Since HZ is secondary to varicella, its incidence increases with age.
2 Ιουλ 2015 · Varicella zoster virus (VZV, also known as human herpesvirus 3) is a ubiquitous alphaherpesvirus with a double-stranded DNA genome.
Eight types of herpesviruses infect humans (see table Herpesviruses That Infect Humans). After initial infection, all herpesviruses remain latent within specific host cells and may subsequently reactivate.
