摘要
Trigeminal ganglia removed at autopsy from immunocompetent individuals without cutaneous signs of herpesvirus infection were fixed, cut into 5-μm sections, and screened at 100-μm intervals (20 adjacent sections) by PCR for latent herpes simplex type 1(HSV-1) and varicella zoster virus (VZV) DNA. Sections that contained >5 neurons with nuclei stained by hematoxylin/eosin revealed HSV-1 DNA in most samples and VZV DNA in approximately 50% of samples. HSV-1 and VZV DNA were distributed throughout each latently infected ganglion.
